Sometimes appliances can surprise you and provide you with life hacks that make things a little easier. Spring’s coming and with it come dirty, smelly, sweat stained base ball caps. To get your little one’s cap clean while retaining it’s shape, pre-treat that nasty head band with your favorite stain treatment and then… put it in the top rack of your dishwasher! Just load it on the spines like you would a bowl and set the dishwasher for a normal wash cycle (don’t use the heated dry option). Voila! Clean baseball caps!
There are a lot of other things you can wash in your dishwasher (like flip-flops, frisbees, dog toys (and children’s toys), etc. Just use your best judgement when experimenting- at your own risk. And happy dishwashing!
