Laundry Question

Do you wash underwear and socks WITH clothing or separate?

I wash them separate because I wash clothes on cold and underwear/socks on hot. But I’m thinking I’m making more work for myself ??

Re: Laundry Question

I was all my clothes on cold because I don't want shrinkage. I wash everything together.
Unless the water is boiling you aren't killing any more bacteria in tap hot water vs cold

I never separate and always wash on cold especially of putting in the dryer. The dry will kill the bacteria so no need to wash in Hot

Re: Laundry Question

I wash everything together (not towels) at about 70 degrees. Enzyme laundry detergent usually needs a certain temperature to work. I also put in an anti-bacterial liquid.
