Corn bags are filled with dried corn kernels, which can be microwaved or boiled to soften them. These bags are used to soothe aches and pains and to help relieve stress, anxiety and insomnia. To clean a corn bag, remove any corn kernels that may have spilled onto the fabric while you were using it. Then wash the bag by hand or in a washing machine on the delicate cycle.

Corn Bag Washing Tips

Remove any corn kernels that have spilled out of their bags before washing them. Place them in a container of water and soak overnight if they are extremely dirty.

Run warm water over your corn bag as soon as possible after use. Don’t leave it sitting on the floor for too long after use because pet fur will stick to it, making cleaning more difficult later on.

Use a mild dish soap or laundry detergent to wash your corn bag by hand or in your washing machine on the delicate cycle. If your machine has an agitator at the bottom of its tub, you should avoid putting your corn bag into it because this can cause damage to its stitching and fillings.

Line dry your corn bag outdoors or hang it up in an indoor space where it won’t get wet from other items being laundered nearby.
