Drying clothes out in the sun is the defacto practice in India and it's really surprising that people would complain about this.
I feel the same way too; Clothes dried in sunlight always seem fresher and crispier (if it makes sense).
- onion2k 7y agoThe UV light in sunshine kills off the bacteria that grow on damp washing. It's far better to dry clothes outside.
- CaptainMarvel 7y agoDoes the UV light not also damage the clothes causing colours to lose vibrancy? If so, this would reduce the lifespan
- jdietrich 7y agoUV does have a bleaching effect on pigments, but that's a feature rather than a bug for white items.
- tropo 7y agoThe birds and squirrels add worse bacteria, plus viruses and parasites. Bacteria do not grow in a hot dryer machine.
