Hiya,
Hope one of you can help, I've tried to google this but it just gives me lots of ads selling products.
Does anyone know how I can get rid of the foisty smell out of my washing machine? I recently changed detergents because my mum reccomended Tesco's own liquid detergent, and I'm not sure if its the new detergent or just a co-incidence but my washing machine has developed a foisty smell, kind of how it would smell if you left wet washing in it for ages.
I empty the machine as soon as a cycle finishes so it cant be that, and I've tried to run an empty boil wash with detergent but still the smell remains. I'm tempted to run a cycle with bleach instead of detergent but will this damage my machine or ruin clothes in subsequent washes? Hope one of you can help!![Big Grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
