    How to remove stinky smell from HE washing machines with essential oils

    How to remove stinky smell from HE washing machines?  A tip for removing the stinky smell from washing machines is to simply add 10 - 15 drops of purify or Melaleuca essential oil on wet wash cloth and wash. That is ALL you want in the washer, and you want to use HOT water/clean cycle if you have one.

    How to remove stinky smell from HE washing machines:

    You can also add 1 cup of vinegar if you want for additional aid in cleaning the washer.  I did this with Melaleuca essential oil and it worked great!  It removed the stinky smell.  When I was done I took that same cloth and wiped the rubber seal inside and out and that helped to remove some black mildew from the rubber too!

      I am very allergic when melaleuca trees are in bloom. Do you know if that carries over to the melaleuca essential oil? I am sensitive to many things and am curious about this.

        I am allergic to Eucalyptus and can use the oil.
