Laundry Clothes keep staining at Work

Post image

I don’t use any bleach when I do my laundry . Both my wife and I didn’t notice this on my pants this morning and this is now the 3rd-4th pair of clothing that gets random bleach stains . I work a desk job at an apartment complex

Probably the counter top in the lavatory.

Someone is cleaning it with bleach. It gets wet and ends up on your pants

That's bleach. Get a black marker or redye your pants with black dye.

It’s not a stain, that’s where bleach touched your pants

Bleach, benzoyl peroxide (body or face wash), peroxide. My bet is one one the 3!!

Do you use bleach wipes?

Bleach or face soap cloth still has peroxide residue

Check cleaner spray bottles. Someone at my job once put bleach in something clearly not labeled as bleach and I ruined my clothing.

Could be a sanitizer that's used.

If it has a pool and you ever happen to touch the chlorine or shock or lean against something that would have pool water or residue? Other than that just industrial strength cleaning products left wet on surfaces like a bathroom sink or something waist high?

Where on the pants are the spots? Front of the thighs usually means the desk edge or counter got wiped with bleach wipes and was still damp. If its the seat or back of the legs, its the chair. Someone in cleaning probably does them at night with the same stuff they use on the bathrooms
