Not every housewife knows about the possibility of removing the unpleasant smell of sweat from clothes without using a washing machine. UAportal told you that there are effective alternatives that will help to return clothes to a fresh and presentable look in a relatively short time.

Vodka

Unconventionally using vodka can be effective in combating the smell of sweat on clothes. Start by diluting the alcoholic beverage with water in a 1:1 ratio.

Apply the resulting solution to the problem area. Leave the vodka mixture on your clothes for 20 minutes to two hours, depending on the intensity of the odor. After that, thoroughly treat the problem area with a steam cleaner.

Baking soda

Apply a sufficient amount of baking soda directly to the affected area. Leave it on for 30 minutes to absorb the odor. Afterward, simply shake off the excess powder.

Freezing

Remember that the smell of sweat is the result of bacteria. To effectively eliminate this odor, you need to kill the bacteria that cause it. One way to do this is to use the freezer.

Put the thing in a bag and place it in the freezer for at least an hour. By exposing the item to extremely low temperatures, you effectively kill bacteria, leaving it fresh and odorless.
