Having a clean washing machine can ensure you have cleaner clothes that smell fresher once they’ve been through a cycle.

Despite what you may believe, it’s also an easy process to deep clean your washer and get it sparkling ready for your laundry.

TikTok cleaning sensation Mama Mila has shared her process to spruce up your machine, and all it takes is four easy steps and products you probably already have.

On the social media platform, the Melbourne woman’s video has been watched over 15,000 times, and says that her method can help you get ‘whiter, brighter laundry’.

The first step of the process is to empty out the drain pump and remove the filters, giving them a clean with an old toothbrush (no detergents required here).

If any coins or trinkets have gone missing in your wash loads, you might find them at this stage.

After they’re back in, remove your detergent and softener tray and clean this simply with warm water and dish soap. The same old toothbrush you used before can come in handy here for getting into nooks and crannies.

Step three needs a little spray bottle, which you fill with white vinegar and around five drops of tea tree oil. Spritz this into the drum and around the seal and give it a wipe.

Then finally, all there is to do is put a cup of white vinegar into your dispensing drawer and run your machine (empty) on its hottest setting.

One commenter wrote ‘OMG literally just had my mind blown’, while another wrote ‘Thanks for the reminder – I haven’t cleaned my washer in a long time.’

If you happen to have any dishwasher tablets lying around, mums rave about popping one or two of these in your machine drum on an empty cycle to deep clean.

The murky water is a great sign you’re getting the job done (even if you do feel somewhat shameful).
