I live in an apartment where there are public washing machines available but the filter for the washing machines are DEFINITRLY not regularly cleaned (most of my laundry smells like vomit right now T-T) so should I just clean it all on my own? in the wash bin? What tyoe of wash bin should ? What else should I consider?

If I do get a washbin do you have any suggestions as to what washbin I should get or sny special considerations I should consider? I plan on getting a steel one. Also I live in canada

I have a lot of merino wool stuff to clean so does anyone have any advice on suirfactants that shouldnt be used on merino wool stuff other than enzymes and bleaching agents?
Thanks to anyone that helps.

Definitely get a detergent made for wool. I use Heritage Park Silk & Wool laundry detergent (for any animal sourced fibers).
ya but do you know if the surfactsnts in that brand of detergentt is REALLY good for your wool?
Like the brand woolites has enzymes in some of their products despite the fact that we know that enzymes completely fuck up wool… how do you know that heritage park silk and wool doesnt have these same ingredients?
Also surfactants. Like we know that enzymes fuck up wool as I just said…do surfactants ALSO do that? And in what ways? Also what surfactants destroy which fabrics?
Well they claim no enzymes and list their ingredients. I’ve used it on merino for a few years without problems.
