Wipe out your laundry woes: Use wet wipes to eliminate lint and hair from dark clothes

Wet wipes can effectively remove various small particles, such as hair and lint, during washing. While wet wipes are typically used for cleaning varied surfaces or hygiene purposes, almost all types prove useful when washing clothes.

• Durability - The wet wipes must be stronger than average - resistant to being torn apart by hand. They need to withstand the spin cycle in the washing machine. Otherwise, you'll end up having to painstakingly remove clumps of white lint from your clean laundry, which is far from enjoyable;
• Scentless - Ideally, the chosen wet wipes should be unscented. This is due to the possibility of fragrance transferring onto your clothes during washing, which may not be the desired outcome. However, if you prefer your clothes to carry a specific aroma, there's no harm in using scented wipes;
• Moisture - Wipes that have dried out will be ineffective. Ensure the packaging hasn't been left open for extended periods and that the product isn't old.

• Avoid reusing the same wipes more than once for laundry purposes, as it greatly diminishes their effectiveness;
• For each washing cycle, only 1-3 wet wipes are required, irrespective of the number of clothes;
• If at all possible, use antibacterial wipes for the best outcome.

After completing a wash with wet wipes, you'll surely notice a significant decrease in lint. Most of these particles will be found directly on the wipes! Give this effective technique a try the next time you're tasked with removing lint and hair from dark clothes.
