Mask Care

Are you aware how to properly care for your mask?

Single Use Mask Disposal:

After using, place mask in plastic bag and tightly tie the top.

Then throw away along with normal trash.

Washing Reusable Masks:

Preferably use a different mask each time you need one, or at least one a day. Using these rules, it is important to have several masks to use between washings. It is also a good idea to have a certain bag for dirty masks and a bag for clean masks.

Washing By Hand:

Scrub mask with detergent/soap and water.

Thoroughly rinse until water runs clean after scrubbed.

By washer-

As long as there are no specific directions printed on the mask, you can typically throw your masks in with normal laundry.

Then use your normal detergent and washer settings.

It is also a good idea to the reshape your masks using an iron.

Drying-

After washing you can either dry your masks in a dryer or let them air dry. You can lay them flat, or hang them up.
