In New Zealand, for example, opinion varies on the issue of air pollution, as the Ministry of the Environment confirms that the levels of air pollutants in the country generally remain low. Dust particles, resulting from specific activities, appear as a source of nuisance, as they may fall on clothes and windowsills, making them appear unclean. These particles can also cause irritation in the eyes and affect the health of plants. If dust falls with rain, yes. , it will slip into your laundry, and rain contamination seems inevitable. The Ministry considers that many human sources, such as road works, construction areas, unenclosed vehicles, mines and farms, constitute potential sources of dust. The Ministry also states that large amounts of dust can arise from natural sources, such as dry riverbeds, pollen and volcanic eruptions. There is also pollution from waste burning, smoking, wood burning, and even trash fires and traffic, and if you live near a busy road, you may be susceptible to the buildup of fine black particles on the exterior of your home. However, the clothesline generally stays well back from the road boundaries, and if the clotheslines are outdoors and out of the way, they are less likely to be affected by pollution particles in the afternoon. Although things may appear clean, you may sometimes feel that your washing machine does not look clean, or that it does not smell fresh. When laundry stays wet and warm for a long time, bacteria and mold are more likely to multiply, making the smell unpleasant. If your laundry is hung On the line for several days, the need may be urgent to rewash, or at least run a rinse cycle to freshen it up. <img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/uploads-2020/%D9%87%D9%84%20%D8%AA%D8%AD%D8%AA%D8%A7%D8%AC%20%D8%A5%D9%84%D9%89%20%D8%A5%D8%B9%D8%A7%D8%AF%D8%A9%20%D8%BA%D8%B3%D9%84%20%D9%85%D9%84%D8%A7%D8%A8%D8%B3%D9%83%20%D8%A5%D8%B0%D8%A7%20%D9%87%D8%B7%D9%84%20%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%85%D8%B7%D8%B1%20%D8%B9%D9%84%D9%8A%D9%87%D8%A7%20%D8%A3%D8%AB%D9%86%D8%A7%D8%A1%20%D8%AA%D8%AC%D9%81%D9%8A%D9%81%D9%87%D8%A7%20%D9%81%D9%8A%20%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AE%D8%A7%D8%B1%D8%AC%D8%9F.jpg" style="width: 800px; height: 533px;" /><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Drying clothes indoors...
