Sometimes my washed clothes have a faded reddish (bleach?) stain? Help?

It does not happen everytime but at times all the cloths will be ruined by faded reddish (bleach?) spots. I'm not sure what could be causing it. We haev no bleach in the house, we wash like colors together, (towels and washcloths in one load) still sometimes a whole load will have the reddish faded spots on them. HELP!!!!!Sometimes my washed clothes have a faded reddish (bleach?) stain? Help?
Perhaps you purchase detergent with bleach (i.e. Tide with Bleach)..You can try running the washer on a full cycle before putting the next load in.Sometimes my washed clothes have a faded reddish (bleach?) stain? Help?
It could be rust from water line or hot water tank, or mud from well water.


Try this: Rinse in cold water. Pretreat any dark/heavy stains, then rinse again.


Wash the garments in chlorine bleach or an all-fabric bleach in hot water. Hang outside or somewhere they can air dry.
I do know that when it happens to my towels it is from toothpaste. any toothpaste that is supposed to whiten teeth bleaches my hand towels from wiping your mouth. I don't have the answer for the rest of the laundry but the same thing happens to me, i don't use bleach or detergent with bleach, i don't have well water either and the clothes are never heavily stained. the funny reddish ';bleach'; spots come up on the weirdest places that are really never dirty areas to begin with. I aways rinse in cold water too. I could use the help. It is a laundry mystery.
