How to get rid of bad odor in the dishwasher: a natural remedy will help

Experts have shared a simple trick to kill all the bacteria in your dishwasher and get rid of odor.

The first thing to remember is that the dishwasher should be washed and cleaned regularly, and left slightly ajar between cycles to allow fresh air to enter, OBOZ.UA writes.

To clean the device inside, it is recommended to use a sponge and hot soapy water to wipe off the dirt. It's also worth adding a rinse aid, which can help the machine's water rinse dishes and glasses properly.

Then add a little dishwasher salt to remove any limescale from hard water. But another natural remedy is the most effective.

It is worth putting a cup of distilled white vinegar on the top shelf of the dishwasher. Then you should run a regular cycle. This procedure will help to effectively clean the dishwasher and remove all unwanted odors.

However, if you are going to use vinegar to clean your dishwasher, you need to be aware of the problems it can cause.

For example, express warns against using apple cider vinegar to clean the appliance. This liquid can break it, damaging rubber seals and gaskets, as well as discoloring the metal.
