Maintenance and correct cleaning of socks

Socks are a small item, but everyone will wear them. Some people don’t like to wash socks. They will throw them away after wearing them once. They feel that they have a sweat smell, which is inconvenient to clean, and can’t remove the smell.
Once people walk, their feet will sweat. Especially in summer, many people do not like to wear sandals. Wearing other shoes can not avoid wearing socks, and the sweat smell caused by sweating is also inevitable. Teach you some correct methods of cleaning socks, so that you don’t have to worry about cleaning socks.
1. Make sure that there is no broken skin in the shoes that may cause the socks to be hung, and it is better to put a cotton pad in the shoes in case, which can also prevent moisture and odor.
2. When washing the socks after wearing, pay attention to: wash them separately. The first is to prevent other clothes from being scratched by zippers and other pendants, and the second is to prevent bacteria from spreading to other clothes, especially underwear.
3. Ordinary cotton socks should be washed and changed frequently. They should be soaked in clean water for about 1 hour after being replaced, and then wiped with soap and washed with hot water, so that the dirt is easy to fall off.
4. When washing wool socks, the neutral soap with less alkali should be cut into soap slices and dissolved in hot water. After the water cools down, the socks should be put in, soaked for a moment, and then gently scrubbed by hand. For the sock head and heel with more dirt, you can wipe some soap and rub them until they are clean. After rubbing the socks, rinse them with clean water, dry them slightly, and dry them in a ventilated place or in the sun.
5. Some people’s socks are easy to stink, and even cannot be washed with detergent. If they are washed with vinegar, the stink can be completely removed. After washing socks with washing powder, put them in vinegar for a while, which can not only deodorize but also sterilize.
6. Whether your socks are of good quality or poor quality, soak them with a little salt water before wearing them, then take them out and let them dry naturally, so that the fiber will become stronger and more durable.
Pure silk stockings, rayon stockings, nylon stockings, etc., should also be gently rubbed with soap when washing, and should not be too hard. The stockings should be dried in the shade after washing, and should not be exposed to the sun or dried.
When washing wool socks, let the soap melt in hot water first. After the water has cooled down, put the socks in and gently rub them with your hands. For the socks with more dirt, you can rub them with soap again, so that they can be washed clean. After washing the socks, rinse them with clean water, dry them slightly, hang them in a cool and ventilated place, or cover them with white cloth and dry them in the sun.
These methods can not only effectively remove the dirt of socks and clean them, but also prolong the life of socks.
