Baby Sock

Question: What happens to baby socks?

I have lost like a million baby socks in the wash! Do you think there is a sock heaven somewhere? Do you think they all hang out with the missing remote controls and keychains? Or do you think aliens sneak into your house to steal our babies& #039; socks because it& #039;s the only way they can sustain their lives? What& #039;s your theory?

I think they mysteriously end up in peoples intestines. You 'd be amazed what they find in people intestines. Its the only explanation, because you never find them and people aren 't going to admit that they ate them. Or maybe those people are really aliens...OMG. Its one of those mysteries that will never be solved.

I think our dogs eat them. I caught my dog doing that once. And our cats like to hide them in their beds and we found a few socks under our couch one day also. Oh yeah, and the old lady that lives upstairs might be taking them while I 'm away from the laundry room too....

I know for a fact that they can fall outside of the washing chamber and into the outer water barrel, eventually getting sucked into the pump and causing you to get your washing machine repaired or buy another one. Use a net laundry bag and keep them together. The also hide anywhere you take your baby. Babies are particularly fond of kicking them off on the way to the car and at other people houses!

The monster that lives in the closet eats them.

This has happened to me too and I wonder the same thing. Get a mesh bag, like what you use to wash lingerie in, and try that. Or put the socks in a pillow case or a pillow cover and wash them that way. Good Luck!

They get stuck or cling to sheets, towels, sweaters, tshirts , all that other stuff that is in the laundry OR they go down under the agitator in the washing machine and AWAY THEY GO ...I have pulled out partially stuck socks from there.
