Why?

Dark load of washing ... Need I say more?

So annoying. Sometimes it’s a minor thing and sometimes it’s got bits on every item. The worst was when a nappy accidentally went in the wash 😱

Noooo! Cloth hankies are revolting.

I came on to say don't be ridiculous but then saw your reason. Yep, been there and felt the pain.

Into the tumble dryer, and then hang out to finish off if you can. While hanging, put on some rubber gloves and wipe the flakes off.

You would think I would not fall for this again after having to do the above, but I bought some of those Kleenex car tissues, and it come out the other end of a wash as a complete clean tissue! So I am only buy those going forward.

What a pain!
I did this yesterday and there is loads of tissue still in the back pocket of jeans but obviously the tissue is in lots of tiny pieces. I don’t have a tumble dryer. Is there anything to do apart from sit and painstakingly pick it out? Have tried a lint roller.

It's most likely DH, he's been trained but still has 'accidents' about twice a year. I'm banning tissues and buying hankies.

Yes punish the culprit and then put the washing in the dryer and the filter will catch a lot of tissue debris, shake off remaining debris in the garden(if possible) or out of the window.

I knew that would be your reason😆

Why is it always the dark load 😭

Punish the perpetrator! And yes that has included me at times!

No you just need to punish the culprit (side eyes dc number3)
