If your dirty clothes are left in a gym bag or a bin with no air-flow, bacteria will grow faster and cause smells that will be difficult to remove. Put dirty laundry in a breathable container such as a mesh hamper as soon as possible. Body oils and sweat build up on the inside of clothes, not the outside, so it can be helpful to turn clothes inside out before putting them in the washer. This is especially true of workout clothes or anything you sweat heavily in. Washers can become smelly themselves when too much detergent builds up, and may leave sour or mildew smells in your laundry. Test for this either by simply smelling the empty washer or by running a cycle with no detergent and watching for any suds that result from built-up detergent.  Detergent buildup can be decreased by running an empty hot cycle with 16 ounces (450 g) of bleach.  Leave your washer’s door or lid open when not in use to air out the inside. You should fill the washer to no more than ¾ of its capacity. Otherwise, the oils, bacteria and other substances that cause unwanted smells will not be thoroughly washed from your clothes and may build up over time. Follows the instructions on your detergent’s label and don’t add more than specified. Detergent increases the water’s viscosity, which can make it more difficult for the water to penetrate the fabric and remove dirt and odors. It can actually act to seal in odors and body oils. If you choose to use fabric softener, avoid using it on clothes that accumulate more odors, such as gym clothes. Dryer sheets can also be used in place of liquid softener, and won’t be as likely to make your clothes retain their smells. Putting smelly clothes in the dryer can “bake” odors into them. If you are dealing with clothes that contain unwanted smells, give them a sniff before throwing them in the dryer, and wash them again if you detect any remaining odors. If your clothes still seem to retain some odors after a second wash, try air-drying them. This can be particularly effective if you are able to hang them outside or somewhere with plenty of airflow.
