You have to turn the taps on for a little while as the water runs brown for a couple of mins and apparently this brown water will be in your white wash. I thought of doing a dark wash 1st then the whites straight after cos the water should be quite clear by then. The Clorex is apparently what they put in the wash because of the brown water turning your whites a nasty colour. I havent got too many but the towels are a light yellow and I have white bras and shorts. Well bra straps are not white anyore!! Stick to handwashing them I think. Thanks sooo much for all the tips - I will be spraying everywhere tomorrow. I did spray the room before I left with fly spray and I am now picking up dead ones off my bed lol so done the trick and none buzzing in my ear tonight. It is things like this that we dont think about. BTW have been having lovely cuppa tea in morn and never checked kettle!!!! Will do 2mrow xxx

My whites become pink/beige in Egypt after a wash. Surely there must be a fine filter available to fit the water inlet. You would think they would be fitted as standard in desert areas! good idea to do a dark wash first and not to buy pale clothes!! handwashing also rendered my white things beige!!as for instructions for the washing machine, have you tried 'googling' for them?
