Try This Genius Mesh Bag Trick To Ensure Your Laundry Pod Dissolves
By DARBY WAGLER
Laundry pods often don’t dissolve completely, leaving streaks of residue on your clothes or inside your washer. Putting the pod inside a mesh bag will stop this from happening.
If you’re using warm water and putting the pod at the back of the drum before adding your clothes but the pod still isn't dissolving fully, using a mesh bag will solve the problem.
The mesh rubs against the pod during washing, creating friction that makes it dissolve properly. The bag also stops the pod from getting stuck in crevices like the door seal.
Place the pod inside the mesh bag (or a sock or nylon stocking), close it, then throw it into your washer, followed by your dirty laundry. Air dry it afterward for later reuse.
