Question 1

Is this laundry detergent high-efficiency (he) ?

Accepted Answer

Yes it is!  We have used it for almost 12 years now in an HE washer with no problems.

Question 2

How well does this detergent work with washing sweaty gym clothes?

Accepted Answer

It'll  work really well. I haven't used it for gym clothes but it does a great job on my sweaty  filthy gardening clothes. I washed them after tilling  a new 10 x  10 garden bed in the middle of the summer.I was tilling in some composted manure. I was very dirty but all the sweaty smell and the manure  smells disappeared when I washed my clothes, so did the dirt.

Question 3

Does this detergent sanitize laundry?

Accepted Answer

Charlie's Soap is a detergent that effectively removes dirt, body oils, and contaminants, but it does not sanitize or kill germs and bacteria, as detergents cannot achieve complete germ eradication on their own.

To sanitize laundry in conjunction with using a laundry detergent, consider the following methods:

1. **Hot Water Wash:** Use the hottest water temperature suitable for your fabric type. Heat can help kill many germs and bacteria. Make sure your clothing can withstand the higher temperature.

2. **Chlorine Bleach:** For white and colorfast fabrics, consider adding chlorine bleach to the wash. Follow the bleach manufacturer's instructions for the correct amount and method of use.

3. **Color-Safe Bleach:** Use color-safe bleach on colored fabrics to sanitize without fading or damaging the colors.

4. **Hydrogen Peroxide:** Add hydrogen peroxide to the wash cycle to disinfect and whiten whites. Be sure to follow the instructions on the bottle for safe usage.

5. **Vinegar:** Add white vinegar to the rinse cycle. It can help kill some bacteria, soften clothes, and remove odors.

6. **Steam Cleaning:** Use a steam cleaner or steam setting on your washing machine if available. Steam can effectively kill germs and sanitize clothes.

7. **UV-C Light Sanitizers:** Consider using UV-C light sanitizers designed for laundry. These devices can help kill bacteria and viruses on clothing.

8. **Disinfectant Additives:** Some laundry disinfectant additives are available on the market. Follow the product instructions for proper usage.

9. **Line Drying in Sunlight:** Sunlight has natural disinfecting properties. Hang your laundry outdoors in direct sunlight to help kill germs.

10. **Proper Drying:** Ensure that your laundry is thoroughly dried, as germs can thrive in damp conditions. Use the dryer on a high-heat setting for an extended period if needed.

11. **Regular Cleaning of Washer:** Periodically clean your washing machine by running an empty cycle with hot water and vinegar or a double dose of Charlie's Soap to prevent the buildup of bacteria.

Remember to read clothing labels and care instructions to ensure you're using the appropriate cleaning and sanitizing methods for each fabric type. Additionally, if you're dealing with heavily soiled or contaminated items, such as those exposed to bodily fluids or illnesses, consider consulting with a healthcare professional or following specific guidelines for disinfection.
