The $7 product Aussies swear by to get rid of sweat and stink on clothes

A brand best known for its anti-fungal products has received rave reviews from women across Australia for its “must-buy” laundry liquid.

Aussie mothers have taken to the Internet to sing the praises of a $7 laundry rinse from Canesten, a company mostly known for its fungal treatments.

The product, which is described as antibacterial and antifungal, claims to eliminate 99.9 per cent of germs and prevent cross infection by removing bacteria and fungi from garments. It can be used in cold or hot wash.

“If you have teenagers it’s a must buy,” a woman shared on a Facebook group for mothers.

“Two caps full in the softener section of the washing machine (along with clothes washing detergent) and the sport uniform tops smell as good as new … I will never buy softener again, this is amazing.”

Another commented, “This is my favourite laundry product.”

Many others vouched for the rinse, saying the product came as a reliable help for tricky situations. “I use this on my hubby’s chef clothes and it gets the kitchen smell out,” one shared.

“This was a great product to sanitise cloth nappies I was given second hand – made sure that my baby didn’t get any bacterial infections from others,” a woman wrote on a review site. “Smelt good and easy to use in washing machine.”

One chimed in, “This product came in real handy after a bout of gastro in my family. All bedding washed in this and came out without that vomit smell even if the machine wasn’t on the disinfectant wash cycle.”

While the product is available in major retailers, many other women pointed out that a similar offering is available at ALDI for a cheaper price. ALDI’s version of the rinse, named Di San, is sold at $3.69 for a 1L bottle.
