Lavender essential oil is a very useful product to keep around the home. Add a little to the washing machine's detergent drawer and you'll kill off mildew spores and microscopic bugs, and banish nasty whiffs, even at low temperatures.
It also means you can get away with using the very cheapest laundry detergent you can get your hands on! The more expensive brands often rely on over-powerful fragrancing to justify their price.
