It may be hard to believe, but your washer gets dirty too. Studies have found bacteria like salmonella and E.coli from diapers and underwear present in washing machines.

In addition, soap residue, minerals, and chemicals from your laundry detergent can get left behind, inside your washing machine and create a thin film that traps bacteria.
