When I run the washing machine, I smell something like rotten eggs. After an Internet search, this could be sulfur since we are on well water. Today I’m going to try a few of the suggestions to get rid of the smell just in case it isn’t sulfur.
One suggestion is to use bleach. This makes sense since if the smell is something lingering around, bleach will surely kill it.
Another suggestion is to wash with just washing powder – which might not be an option since I can’t find this locally. I will look one more time today when I go to the grocery store.
Doing a washing cycle with just vinegar is another suggestion. Vinegar is definitely one of those wonder products, so I may have to try this one, too.
Hopefully I will stumble upon some solution. I might look for water softeners, too. If it is sulfur, then maybe some sort of treatment can at least get rid of the smell.
