It is really annoying when you finish getting your laundry done and find out that you left a tissue in your pocket and it’s now stuck everywhere. The excitement of getting fresh and clean clothes immediately turns sour upon the sight of white specks all over your favourite pants.
To make matters worse, you can’t simply wash it again as the white pulp will still be stuck after that wash. So you will have to resort to picking them out, hours upon hours until you finally give up and just buy a new pair of pants. Yes, I over-exaggerated, but you get the point.
Thankfully, a girl in Japan has shared a simple hack to deal with this problem. She tweeted, as translated by Sora News24,
“If you’ve suffered the tragedy of leaving a tissue in your wash, [leave the clothes in the machine] and add only fabric softener. Run the rinse cycle once, and then the spin/dry cycle, and everything will get clean. Now that I know this, tissues are no match for me! Come on, do your worst! Thanks for giving me this crazy confidence, fabric softener. You’re my savior.”

ティッシュまみれの惨劇に見舞われた洗濯物は『柔軟剤のみ、すすぎ1回、脱水1回の設定で洗い直すと綺麗になる』という事を知っていま凄絶に感動してるし、最早ティッシュなど私の敵では無いぞ!恐るるに足らず!さあ!いくらでも放り込むがいい!ってちょっと調子乗ってる。ありがとう柔軟剤…救世主… pic.twitter.com/C74jmFr9LP

Yes, it is that easy. According to her, the fabric softener will coat the tissue which will separate them from the fabric. So, if you find yourself in a similar predicament, you will know what to do.
