I use this product during the rinse cycle, and it adds a pleasant scent. As to whether or not it's sanitizing my clothes, one can hope. It does not remove musty smells from towels. As a matter of fact, it doesn't really mask it either. I'm still a fan! I have an HE washer, so I let it wash on a regular cycle and then put the washer on a rinse spin cycle. This way the washer fully fills up with water to mix in the sanitizer. You could just select extra rinse if that's an option on your machine.

The greatest. Spray the pits of the stinky clothes and done. The “full load/capful” stuff is nowhere near as effective and prevents me from using liquid fabric softener since I never use dryer sheets. PLEASE KEEP MAKING THIS SPRAY SANITIZER!!

I love this stuff!! I initially bought it to sanitize and freshen up fabrics I'm unable to put in the washing machine. Then one day I realized it's also an excellent stain remover. I love that it's multi use. I can use it on carpet stains without it ruining the color. I can use it on my clothes that I get stains on. It's truly a great product.

Clorox Fabric Odor Remover is amazing. It keeps strong smelly odors out of clothing, bed sheets, and pillows. When I add it to my washed laundry it smells excellent. The results will amaze you once you use this product.

For a woman, I sweat, a lot. There is nothing worse than wearing a “freshly” laundered shirt only to smell funk the minute I start sweating. Enter Clorox Laundry Sanitizer! I spray the pits of my shirts before I wash them and Voila!, the stench is gone! I find it extremely satisfying seeing it bubble and froth, attacking the embedded bacteria in the fabric. It’s a literal must-have when doing laundry. I also use it on my sheets and pillowcases,because, gross.

I have been using Lysol sanitizer for several years now. I was just about to try this brand when I realized how stupid their cap design is. That alone will keep me from ever trying this product. It will leak all the way down the side of the bottle unless you rinse the cap every time.
