A cleaning-mad mum has revealed a quick, cheap and easy way to clean dirty washing machines using common household items.

The woman shared her tip on a cleaning group on Facebook, saying all you need to use are four ingredients: washing-up liquid, an old toothbrush, bicarbonate of soda and white vinegar.

She explained how she rinsed the drawer in household washing-up liquid, then used an old toothbrush to ensure every corner was scrubbed.

Next, she wiped away some of the loosened grime, then used a combination of bicarbonate of soda and white vinegar to remove odours and smells from the drawer.

Lastly, she gave it a spray with a mould and mildew spray and soaked it in hot water before running the machine on a hot wash to remove any last traces of dirt.
