3 Reason why you should air your kifuniko cha asali under the sun

It is advisable to invest in cotton panties as they are more absorbent.

• Panties should not be used beyond three months because, after that time, they have well served their purpose.

The rainy season is here after many months of dust and dryness.

One thing that most people won't be doing is airing them under wear under the sun. Some especially men have very few and the fear of them being rained on is real.

the sun’s ultraviolet rays help to sterilize the panties and remove all the moisture that would have otherwise remained if they are left to dry indoors.

Here are reasons why you should sun dry your kifuniko cha asali

Eliminates bad odor

That is true, when clothes do not dry well they have a bad stench. Get rid of these by airing your knickers outside.

Prevents mold from growing

Mould loves wet surfaces. 

Mold growth on clothes is caused by prolonged exposure to dampness.

 Usually, mold growth occurs when you leave a wet item of clothing scrunched up without properly drying for too long. However, mold-stained clothing can also be a sign of an underlying damp problem in your home.

The sun is not as damaging as a cloth dryer

 Even in a low heat setting, the dryer can get too hot. The tumbling motion can also cause damage to the thin fabrics and elastic of your panties. 

This might make the panty/boxers stretch.

FYI, panties should not be used beyond three months because, after that time, they have well served their purpose.
