How do you get poop smell out of washing machine?

Baking soda and vinegar are a home cleaner's two best friends for gentle but effective cleaning. About a ¼ cup of baking soda should go in the detergent drawer along with some water and check the drum for any debris before adding 2 cups of white vinegar to the drum.

Why does my washing machine smell like sewage?

Most likely, the smelly washer is a sign of plumbing problems, and that's where EcoClean can help. Run a load of hot water through the washing machine (without clothes). Add a cup of distilled white vinegar to the load. This restores water to evaporated drain traps, which releases sewer gas.
