During the rainy season, the sun is barely visible. The sky is cloudy, and there is a continuous drizzle. As a result, wet clothes hang around the house. If clothes are not dried day after day, a damp smell spreads. There is also a fear of spoiling your favorite clothes due to the wet feeling. Don’t worry even if the sun doesn’t shine. If you know a few tricks, your clothes will be crisp and dry even in heavy rain. What’s not to believe? Find out the tricks.
(1) Newspaper works great to absorb excess water from wet clothes. Wring out the wet clothes well and wrap them in newspaper. The paper will absorb the water. This method is effective in removing the dampness from small items like socks, handkerchiefs or underwear. Also, when clothes are mixed in the room, the air becomes heavy. To remove that moisture, roll up a few newspapers and keep them in the corner of the room. There will be no more dampness in the room.
(2) In an emergency, you can use a hair dryer to dry clothes quickly. When you blow hot air on wet clothes, the moisture disappears instantly. However, do not keep the dryer in one place for too long. This can damage the clothes.
(3) If you want to dry your clothes by ironing, some caution is necessary. Instead of ironing directly on wet clothes, place a dry cotton cloth or towel on top. Then iron. This will prevent the clothes from burning, and the wet feeling will also disappear.
(4) Thick jeans do not dry easily. After washing, wrap the jeans in a dry towel and squeeze them well. Then put them in the washing machine’s spin dryer on high heat for 10-15 minutes. Thick jeans will also dry in no time.
(5) In the last step of washing clothes, mix a little vinegar or baking soda with water. This will remove the damp smell and germs. And when hanging clothes under the fan at night, keep at least one window open. If there is enough air circulation, there will be no musty smell, and the clothes will also be smelly in the morning.
