Removing Smell from Towels

The smell may be coming from your water, however here is what I would suggest doing:

1. Make sure your washing machine is clean.
   
2. Use the hottest setting to clean these items-most of them are probably made from cotton so they can withstand the heat.
3. If the items are white, use bleach which will kill any bacteria, help make them whiter and help get rid of that smell.
4. Try adding 1/4 cup baking soda to your wash to also help eliminate odors.
