Fleece Does Fleece and/or U-Haul Pads have a "life expectancy"?

[mamattorney]

I've used the same four fleece liners for about 16 months (rotated every two days). I've stripped them several times (every few months), but despite not having a smell when they come out of the washer, for the past month or so they seem to smell by the second day. Is there a point where fleece and/or U Haul pads just need to be replaced? If so, when? Thanks.

I have been having some of the same issues. Ive been using my fleece for a little for than a year. I think they still smell when I take them out of the wash. I will wash and rinse twice using vinegar. Is there a point when you just cant get the smell out and they need to be replaced? I love my pigs but I don't love it when their cage smells by the next day.

I would try hanging them in the sun for a few hours. That helps with getting mildew smells out of clothes.

Anti pill fleece is purported to last the longest. All my fleece cases are from the store here and the quality is great.
