    I'd be curious to know how simple air drying in the house would compare to sun drying and using the dryer.

      @@FieldOfFocus Have you experimented with air drying inside? I'm asking because I live in an apartment and use a portable washer most of the time for wash my laundry. For heavier and/or bulkier items, I will use the laundromat. I live on the first floor and my patio is open to apartment traffic. So, leaving my clothes out to dry is not an option for me. Besides, I don't want everyone to know my business concerning my laundry. I watched your video on Lysol laundry sanitizer and found it to be impressive at ridding clothes of bacteria. I will have to give it a try.

    Sunlight really is the best disinfectant 😂 it would be cool to see the results of throwing a cup of cleaning vinegar into the wash. That’s a common thing people say to do to help disinfect laundry but it’s always seemed weird to use only one cup in such a large amount of water.

Of course without disassembly there is no way to determine if this really did the trick but it got me wondering if we are fighting a losing battle with each load of laundry if the machine itself is introducing bacteria/dirt from this build up over time. Ugh!

    I love this! I'm a medical person by career, and seeing these experiments is not only entertaining, but so educational.
    Almost as entertaining, are the comments. lol
    Remember folks, you have to exercise your immune system just like you have to exercise a muscle to keep it functioning properly. A few household germs is not really a bad thing. (I'm not talking about ebola. lol )
    But it's amazing to see how all of these different cleaning agents and processes are effective at killing bacteria.

    I’ll say it again. It seems like tide pods do a terrible job cleaning clothes. I’d love to see you test different laundry soaps!

      YES I felt like using a tide pod was good to start with because it is pre-measured and a commonly used laundry detergent.

    Here in the Las Vegas desert, the UV is extremely high all year (level 8 today). During the early days of Covid when disposable masks were scarce, I would set mine outside in the sun for 2 days after use, for disinfecting, so I could reuse. I dry many clothes and linens in the sun, but the intense sun can damage fabrics and fade colors over time. I often use the dryer to start the process and finish it outside or soften up towels and clothes in the dryer quickly after outside drying. I love the fresh smell of sun dried laundry.

    I would love for you to test those Aqueous ozone laundry machines. "i own one and washed without detergent for a year now"
    Clothes seem to come out clean "no detegergent smells, just fresh"
    Our washer also stopped smelling like that mildew smell since using it.
    You only wash in cold water as ozone dissipates in warm water "i even add an extra rinse cycle as ozone gets injected in every cycle acting like an extra wash"
    I have the Purewash pro brand. Another brand is named the O3waterworks.
    They do cost some money but i really wished one of those companies would send you one for review.
    The way those machines work supposedly is injecting ozone into the water stream that strips odors and bacteria.
    I would really love for you to put one of those things to the test!

    Disclaimer :) I know this is crazy intense, but it would give more information I think? So it would be great to know the TYPES of bacteria on each surface & cloth (including bacteria transferred from our hands, the washing machine, the dryer, the detergent, and anything else that touches the towels). THEN, determine what TYPES of bacteria are killed best in the sun, and which TYPES are killed best in the dryer. But not like most of us are going to be testing all our surfaces to see what TYPE of bacteria it is, although for households I think staph. is a pretty common one?

    I love this channel but man....I wish I didn't know that washing my stuff didn't matter! lol I was married to a scientist (PhD in Immunology/Microbiology) and going to his work, WOW the amount of stuff growing on the kitchen sponge, the fridge, their coffee cups (all sitting on a table outside the lab). Well at least I know a lot of stuff won't kill me but I assumed that scientists would actually be really really clean. I know my home, my husband said he's never seen a bigger germaphobe. I refuse mops because moving dirty water around bothers me (I have several steam mop pads that I change out ever 2 feet). I wonder if you did this experiment with adding 2 or 4 cups of vinegar if that would make the bacteria to be much smaller colonies. But now I feel like me washing my towels and I rub my face in them after getting out of the shower is now just putting more bacteria on my skin...

    Have you tried hanging laundry out on a cloudy day?

      The more recent video I did in the sun, it was mostly sunny but there were some clouds.

    I guess radiation from the sun is good after all! Lol
