Woman praised for sharing genius hack to get rid of pesky tissue bits stuck to your clothes if you accidentally wash one
THERE are few things more annoying than getting a load out of the washing machine, only to find it’s covered in tiny bits from the tissue you left in a pocket.
So one woman has been praised for sharing a genius hack to get rid of those pesky pieces in seconds.
“I have a laundry hack for you,” Angie began her TikTok video.
“Do you ever happen to leave a tissue in your pocket then you do your laundry and it’s invariably always your darks?
“Well it happened to me last night and every article of clothing had a tonne of white tissue on it – more white than I’ve ever seen, inside and out.
“It was horrible.”
She then explained what she’d done – beginning by taking each item from the washing machine and shaking it thoroughly.
She then turned it inside out and shook it again, before putting them back in the washing machine with a “little bit of soap”.
“Now here’s the trick,” she continued.
“Drop in two clean microfibre cloths in your washing machine. Put one on one side and one on the other side.
“Then run your wash as normal and they’ll come out looking perfect.
“No white on them anymore.”
The cloths act as a magnet and attract all the white bits from the clothes during the laundry cycle,
“When you forget to clean out your pockets, this really works. Has it ever happened to you?” Angie captioned her video.
People quickly took to the comments section to weigh in, with one writing: “It happens to me too often. Thank you for saving me lol.”
“Thanks, very useful,” another added.
“Wow, I’m going to try!” a third commented.
“Great idea,” someone else wrote.
As another agreed, adding: “I’ve done this and it works great.
“I now keep cheap microfibre handy.”
