Cleaned the filter out?

can you put zoflora in a dishwasher?

Is it a dishwasher or did you mean washing machine? Just I thought that's what you did to washing machines! If a dishwasher it could be back up from the drainage hose. The installation might not have included a trap to stop smells. Sorry for my lack of technical lingo!

If washing machine is the rubber door seal mouldy?

Washed at 60

It has a higher temperature setting than that, surely? Whack it on maximum: I think mine has a 90 setting.

throw zoflora in it and wash at 90

You don’t use liquid based (liquid, gel or pods) detergents all the time do you?
