Hello. This is a good question.
I know my dryer has sanitize setting option. Working in the medical field I know the a common way to sterilize is an autoclave which is timed high pressure and heat.
I always put some ammonia in with my sheets. Double rinse them
Lysol makes a liquid Laundry Sanitizer you put in the rinse cycle
You could also add some white vinegar to your rinse cycle.
The heat of your dryer should also help to disinfect your sheets.
Add a cup or so of white vinegar to the last rinse of your sheets. It disinfects as well as softens. Here's a paragraphy from an on-line article.
Using Vinegar to Disinfect LaundryVinegar has acetic acid, which can kill viruses and bacteria. For a bit of added disinfectant and deodorizer in your clothes, you can add ½ cup of white vinegar to the rinse cycle. Not only will this help to kill those pesky germs, but it also works as a fabric softener. This can work for whites and colored clothes.
I always wash mine in hot water and have no issues. However, you could spray with hydrogen peroxide to disinfect.
Sunshine does wonders. Hang them on the line! :)
I add white vinegar (usually 1/2 to 1 cup) to the rinse cycle depending on the load size, does not matter what I am washing.
I wash them in hot water regardless of the directions and I've never had a problem. I suppose there may be some risk, in that case, I would wash them several times before drying them. Also, vinegar is good for some things but it doesn't kill most germs. https://www.goodhousekeeping.com/home/cleaning/a31402790/what-kills-germs/
use a non chlorine bleach and wash on hot that is what I do with mine and they are fine
It says to wash on cold.
ANy microfiber I have can be put in boiling water and the microfiber won't be harmed. I would do that and add a very mild detergent.
Adding vinegar to the rinse should do the trick.
No, putting clothes in the sun will not kill germs.
If that were true, not only the germs on your clothes would die, but all germs that come into contact with sunlight would.
Obviously this is not the case, since the world is full of germs.
If the sun killed germs if you felt like you were getting the flu or a cold you could just go stand outside and be cured.
