Good Lifestyle

Making the laundry is simple, in theory: the basket is loaded, the detergent is added, a little softener to make the garments softer and more fragrant and you're done. Simple, right? But how to divide the garments to put in the basket well? What is the right detergent not to combine damage? And the right temperature? And the detergent must be chosen based on the type and color of the garments or according to its delicacy on the skin? And then, another very important question, how should the wet garments be dried? Drying, in addition to making a huge difference on the final result (especially on form and ironing), if made incorrectly it can be harmful to the health of those who live in the house. Let's see together what are the precautions to follow to have a perfect laundry and not endanger the family.

Winter

To those who have not happened to stay a little back with the laundry or, during the winter weeks of bad weather - when it is not possible to dry the garments in the open air -, to have to make numerous washing machines and to spread on a thousand stenDibianchery around for home? In the most desperate cases then, it happened to everyone that they had to put the garments, piled up one on the other, on the heated radiators, to make them lose humidity and finally be able to store them in the closet! Here ... nothing more wrong and more dangerous for the health of those who live in the house.

A danger to the respiratory tract of our loved ones

Each gesture, even the most unaware one, has an impact on our health and often on the health of those around us. Sometimes, a habitual and apparently harmless and trivial action, such as that of drying the garments around the house and above all on radiators, can be the cause of diseases and disorders of the respiratory system because it facilitates the formation of humidity in the domestic environments and the consequent formation of mold.

Bad drying

When we overload with wet clothes the roundabouts that we then leave in the corridors or in other domestic environments we create the conditions for the formation of mold. The wet and wet garments put to dry too close to each other, will hardly become dry and soft in a timely adequate time not to create excessive humidity in the environment. You will also have noticed the bad smell that is generated in the rooms and on the same clothes when they take too long to dry. Here, this situation must be avoided in any way.

The mold

In an environment in which there is an excessive prolonged humidity over time, condensation and mold is likely to be created and, as indicated also by the Ministry of Health, mold is a decidedly harmful factor for health. The most common consequences are frequent irritation for both skin and eyes and allergic pathologies to the respiratory tract that lead according to asthma and chronic bronchitis. In the most serious cases, then, a correlation was seen between the exposure to mold and diseases such as cystic fibrosis. Let's see together, therefore, what are the precautions to make the laundry in the correct way, how to wash the garments and how to dry them.

Excessive loads

Sometimes you have the incorrect belief that filling the washing machine basket as a stuffed cuttlefish is the best solution to make a good laundry and save time and resources. Nothing more wrong. The garments will never be washed properly because the water has no way of crossing them to take away the dirt and it will be practically impossible to have really clean and fragrant garments. Better to opt for two washing cycles, possibly a slightly more contained duration.

Labels and temperatures

In addition to the basic rule of dividing the light capacities with dark garments and organizing the washes by type of fabric - never put in the cotton basket together with wool or delicate garments! -It is a good practice to always read the washing tips shown on the labels and follow the rule of 30-60: all colored clothing must never be washed at a temperature above 30 degrees and 60 degrees are an exclusive of the very cotton garments dirty, which need more energetic washes.

Excess detergent

Another myth to dispel is that of detergent. Abbonds with detergent is not a winning solution to have clean and fragrant items. An excess of soap creates an excess of foam in the basket that contributes to creating bad smells. Better to follow the dosage advice shown on the packaging or prefer single -dose detergents, so as to have really clean clothes and avoid polluting the environment in vain and to waste money and resources.

Extend in the open air

Last advice for a really clean, fragrant and healthy laundry is that of spreading the open -air caps as much as possible. Our house will not be invaded by rocks, humidity and mold on the walls and we will wear really clean and fragrant garments.
