    White vinegar is gentle enough to add in to the mix and it removes smells

    This is what I’ve been doing for several years with no issues using a front loader and woolite for my gear.

    I only use sewn end channel, net less hammocks. so remove the CL's and wash the same as you wash bed sheets. Washing machine, normal cycle, normal laundry detergent. I do not put in the dryer. I let them air dry.
    My worst night in a hammock was still better than my best night in a tent!!!!

    Front loader. We put ours in a pillow case and toss in machine. Soak in mirazyme if needed then rinse. Always air dry.

    Every now and then I hang my hammock in the backyard and give it a good blast with the hose, that gets most of the sweat and funk smell off.

    This. I use hot water (125°) and regular cycle.
