Mildew and bacteria. The most common places you can find bacteria growing is in wet and moist places. When you leave your clothes wet, chances are bacteria will start growing on them, creating the funky odor.
Because they go sour.
Not only will they turn sour from mildew, but the rubber seal around the door will have black mold spots from frequent "forgetting" to take wet clothes out of the washer. Run the clothes through again with Biz, detergent, and softener. Then one cycle with bleach with nothing else in the load.
If you have a front loader, always use HD detergent because normal detergent foams and allows the seal to grow mold very quickly. Both regular and HD detergents cost the same.
its mildew. You'll have to re-wash them.
When you wash your clothes, you DO NOT kill the germs and bacteria on them from your body, and in a moist environment the bacteria start to grow, and start to smell.
