During washing, an ordinary dishwashing sponge is thrown into the drum of the machine. It accumulates hair and wool that can accidentally get into the clothes and protects against hair getting clogged in the cracks and pipes of the machine. It is better to use textured shower sponges - they are more effective at trapping extra small objects.

If you follow these precautions, you can keep your clothes clean and avoid damage to your washing machine. In addition, only use clean sponges and avoid using the same sponge more than once. It is better to use a new sponge for each wash cycle.

You can also use wet wipes instead of a dish sponge. The rules are the same here:

• Do not reuse a damp cloth, as it loses its effectiveness after washing and you will not save money;

• The number of wipes should be increased depending on the number of items, from 1 to 3 per wash, no more;
• Antibacterial wipes are best because they do not have additional fragrances;
• Choose durable wipes that do not tear easily in your hands, so they will not tear inside the washing machine and will fulfill their function.
