Ok, so i neglect a vacant house all winter and guess what? The sumps fail. So now i have many sterlite tubs full of clothes (that my wife would prefer to salvage some of) that smell like stagnant water. I've kept everything wet, still in the tubs, but even after regular washing they still smell. (duh). What's gonna be a good procedure to salvage some of the more important items without a smell?
thanks!
First thought is anything that is bleachable, wash it using that. And air drying outside for a couple days could help.
noted, and THANKS!
A Febreze spray might help; it seems to work on many stubborn smelly things. Even gym sox.

Try adding Borax in a wash. I've used 20muleteam brand.
