Always pre-rinse contaminated clothing. Be sure children and pets are not playing nearby. When using a tub or pail for pre-rinsing, dispose of the water preferably through the septic system. If possible, keep clothing contaminated with similar pesticides together so they can be pre-soaked together and then laundered together. One way to keep them in separate groups is to us plastic-lined boxes.
Pesticide residues can transfer from contaminated clothes to other clothing during washing.
Wash a few contaminated garments at a time, using lots of water. Do not overload the machine. Use hot water only. Cold water is not effective in removing pesticides in the wash cycle. The water level should be at the highest setting and wash for a full cycle with a double rinse.
