All you need is some vinegar and baking soda. Place your towels in the washing machine and fill the machine with hot water. Add 1 cup white vinegar (no detergent), and wash as usual.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_does_my_laundry_smell_like_urine\"><\/span>Why does my laundry smell like urine?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>What to Do if Clothes Smell Like Urine After Washing? Remember that <b>moisture can cause urine smells to come back, even if the clothing didn&#8217;t smell like urine before being washed. The best thing to do is to wash the clothes again using an enzymatic laundry detergent and some vinegar in the wash.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_do_my_towels_smell_like_body_odor_after_washing\"><\/span>Why do my towels smell like body odor after washing?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Why do towels smell? Towels develop a sour and smelly odor when they&#8217;re put away wet. Another source of towel odor, and also the reason towels lose softness and absorbency, ironically comes from <b>detergent\/fabric softener buildup<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_do_my_towels_stink_after_one_use\"><\/span>Why do my towels stink after one use?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When a towel gets a sour, musty smell, <b>it is a sign that a bacteria colony is breeding and growing. Most often, a bunched up, damp towel in a warm room is all it takes for a colony to start. Hanging a towel to allow air to circulate and dry it after use is definitely the best way to prevent odors.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_do_my_towels_smell_like_pee_after_washing\"><\/span>Why do my towels smell like pee after washing?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><b>Mildew can cause your towels to smell like pee, and if not properly washed when it begins to form, it will keep spreading and begin to affect the fabric of your towel making them more pliable. When dealing with mildew, it&#8217;s important to act quickly and take measures to eliminate it before it begins to spread.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_takes_human_urine_smell_out_of_fabric\"><\/span>What takes human urine smell out of fabric?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><b>Use bleach and laundry detergent to wash clothes<\/b> Measure the right amount of bleach and laundry mixed with lukewarm water in the washing machine and let it spin.

You&#8217;ll need to use something to pre-treat the clothing, such as bleach, vinegar, or baking soda. Then, follow up with a stronger enzyme laundry detergent when washing.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_do_you_neutralize_the_smell_of_pee\"><\/span>How do you neutralize the smell of pee?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Opt for <b>Baking Soda<\/b> Baking soda naturally neutralizes odors. Sprinkle it liberally on the damp area or even an old urine stain, and work the powder gently into the fibers of any fabric, rug or carpet. Let the baking soda sit overnight for maximum odor absorption, then vacuum it up to remove the smell completely.<\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Table of Contents How do you get urine smell out of towels?Why does my laundry smell like urine?Why do my towels smell like body odor after washing?Why do my towels stink after one use?Why do my towels smell like pee after washing?What takes human urine smell out of fabric?Does laundry detergent remove urine smell?How do&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"spay_email":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-104441","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/animalshelterz.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/104441"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/animalshelterz.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/animalshelterz.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/animalshelterz.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/animalshelterz.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=104441"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/animalshelterz.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/104441\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/animalshelterz.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=104441"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/animalshelterz.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=104441"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/animalshelterz.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=104441"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
