Finding out tips and tricks for doing the laundry can make it all a bit easier - but how much do you actually know about the dos and don’ts of laundry? Take our quiz to find out.

Here’s what Fairy Non Bio has to say: “After decades of listening to scientists, parents, shoppers and children we think of ourselves as the laundry experts for families. But there is always more to learn! Share your dos, don’t and tricks of the trade with us so we can make sure our products are made for you!”

However much you think you know about laundry, take our quiz to find out how well your knowledge stands up to the test and share how you did on the thread below to be entered into a prize draw where one MNer will win a £300 voucher for the store of their choice (from a list).

Thanks and good luck!

Result: 75% ;)

87%. I got the O wrong as well-was sure it meant dry clean but it appears to be wrong
🙁

Dixiestampsagain · 09/04/2018 04:46

62%...oops! I’m not going to pretend I’m an expert, though, so probably deserved that.

ConfusedLivingDoll · 09/04/2018 05:21

87% Although not a very challenging quiz!

ChishandFips33 · 09/04/2018 05:47

75% so 2 wrong - the symbol one (I thought it was dry clean but it said do not wash) and the date of the wash board one. Dates are tricky.

^this!

SisterFrancisBeaverhausen · 09/04/2018 08:06

75%

MrsStarwars · 09/04/2018 08:34

Oh dear only 75%

Marriageoftrueminds · 09/04/2018 08:51

I got 75%! Happy enough with that Grin

NerrSnerr · 09/04/2018 12:51

62% I just bung everything in together.

RamsayBoltonsConscience · 09/04/2018 13:51

75% not bad considering the only thing I check is whether I can throw something in the tumble dryer or not!

mrsglowglow · 09/04/2018 15:04

87% it was the empty circle that i got wrong. I guess none of my clothes i buy cannot 'not be washed!

Mochamocha · 09/04/2018 15:21

62% eeek. Considering my washing machine is on daily perhaps I should look at the labels more often. Oh well no major disasters (yet)

slowsloth · 09/04/2018 17:08

100% but I have no idea how. I wash towels and clothes separately but other than that separation I just throw it all in

Eleanor1066 · 09/04/2018 18:25

75% - and I tried hard!

eandh · 10/04/2018 05:27

87% but 2 of the labels I had no idea on! Tbh between sports wear for dh and dd2 and dd1 feeling everything needs to be washed regardless if it’s been on 1 hour or 1 day it all just gets thrown in colour pukes and in machine!

Montydoo · 10/04/2018 17:57

Yikes 75% - never seen a do not wash label on anything. As for the Kate Middleton question haha

MummyBtothree · 11/04/2018 15:55

87% because I didn't recognise the 'dry clean only' symbol. Probably because I try my best to avoid buying clothes that can't bung in the washing machine!.

daisyduke66 · 11/04/2018 20:22

87% :)

Winningbeauty · 12/04/2018 11:58

75%

Learnt that a circle means never wash lol!

Oh and how am I supposed to know when the first scrub board was made?!

HermanCakeDestroyer · 12/04/2018 16:34

I got 75% - must try harder!!

lhubb5616 · 12/04/2018 18:34

7 out of 8, OK seeming I don't know what half the symbols on a label mean!

duck22 · 12/04/2018 18:54

50%....oh dear. This is why my husband is in charge of the washing Grin

IonaAilidh11 · 12/04/2018 20:28

75% not bad

Time4adrink · 12/04/2018 21:30

87% I feel embarrassed

AngelwingsPetlamb · 13/04/2018 17:18

I got 75% because I didn’t know when the first washing machine/scrub board was invented and I didn’t know the circle symbol meant do not wash. It was a very informative quiz.
