How to Keep Laundry Fresh During Rainy Days: Smart Tips to Beat Kulob Smell and Damp Clothes

 Say goodbye to kulob smell and damp clothes, even without the sun

Rainy days can make doing laundry feel like an uphill battle. Without sunshine to help dry your clothes, you’re left with longer drying times, musty odors, and the stress of dealing with stubborn stains. But just because the weather is gloomy doesn’t mean your laundry has to be.

With a few smart habits and the right appliances, you can keep your clothes fresh and clean throughout the wet season. Home solutions brand Midea shares expert tips to help you overcome your rainy day laundry woes with ease.

Don’t let damp clothes sit too long

It might not seem like a big deal to postpone laundry during a rainy week, but leaving damp clothes unwashed can cause that unpleasant kulob smell. The longer they sit, the worse it gets.

Midea recommends washing your damp clothes as soon as possible and ensuring they are thoroughly dried. A washer-dryer combo can be a game-changer here. The Midea Luna Inverter Series Fully Automatic Front Load Combo Washing Machine takes care of both washing and drying in one go. It features HealthGuard™ technology with pre-wash Steam Care, which removes 99.99 percent of germs, allergens, and odor-causing bacteria.

Use DIY odor-fighting tricks

Sometimes fabric conditioner isn’t enough to beat that rainy-season smell. Try adding a bit of white vinegar to the rinse cycle. It helps neutralize odors, remove light stains, and naturally softens fabrics.

If your clothes are muddy or starting to show signs of mildew, there is a quick DIY solution you can try. Mix equal parts baking soda and vinegar into a paste. Apply it to the affected area, let it sit for about 30 minutes, then rinse before tossing it into the wash. It is a simple trick that can save your favorite pieces.

Always remove clothes after the wash cycle ends

We have all left laundry sitting in the washer for a little too long. Even though the clothes are clean, leaving them in the machine creates a damp environment that invites that unwanted musty smell.

This is where smart appliances shine. The Midea Luna Inverter Series includes Wi-Fi Control, which lets you monitor and operate your washer from your smartphone. You get alerts when your laundry is done, so you can remove your clothes right away and keep them smelling fresh.

Use an iron to finish the drying process

If your clothes come out slightly damp and you need them dry quickly, use an iron to press out the remaining moisture. This method not only helps speed up drying but also smooths out wrinkles, making your clothes look and feel ready to wear.

Choose a washer-dryer combo that does it all

Having the right appliance can make a huge difference, especially during the rainy season. The Midea Luna Inverter Series Washer-Dryer Combo is built for efficiency, cleanliness, and convenience. It includes:

• HealthGuard™ with Auto Clean and Steam Care for deeper cleaning
• Inverter Quattro technology for energy savings
• Wi-Fi Control so you can manage laundry anytime, anywhere
• Its Auto Clean function also keeps the drum sterilized, which helps prevent bacteria buildup and keeps every load fresh and hygienic.

Make laundry easier, even when it’s raining

Rainy days don’t have to mean smelly clothes and laundry delays. With the right habits and a reliable washer-dryer combo like the Midea Luna Inverter Series, you can keep your laundry routine smooth, your clothes fresh, and your home stress-free.
