    How does one go about washing the sump sock other than just in the sink?

    Do it all the time works great. I just use hot water until they get really nasty then I do a double load once with bleach and once to make sure they get rinsed really good. Dont like to use bleach too much cuz of course we all know if you use it too much on your socks it puts holes in them ;D
