What are the health and safety practices in caring for clothes?

1. Wash your hands before handling clothes. This will help to prevent the spread of bacteria and viruses.

2. Sort your clothes according to color and fabric type. This will help to prevent colors from bleeding and fabrics from being damaged.

3. Use the correct detergent for the fabric type. Harsh detergents can damage delicate fabrics.

4. Wash clothes in the correct water temperature. Hot water can damage some fabrics, while cold water may not be enough to remove all of the dirt and grime.

5. Dry clothes on a low heat setting. High heat can damage the fibers of the fabric.

6. Remove clothes from the dryer as soon as they are finished drying. This will help to prevent wrinkles and shrinking.

7. Fold or hang clothes neatly. This will help to keep them organized and prevent them from becoming wrinkled.

8. Store clothes in a cool, dry place. Avoid storing clothes in damp or humid areas, as this can cause mold and mildew to grow.

9. Follow the care instructions on the clothing labels. These instructions will provide you with specific information on how to care for your clothes.
