I don't think that's going to work well in my front loading washing machine.

Cheers,
Stefan

All,

Follow this link for the latest version of the USFWS WNS decontamination 
protocols (as of 6/25/2012): 
http://whitenosesyndrome.org/sites/default/files/resource/national_wns_revise_final_6.25.12.pdf

Note that hot water is the easiest and safest method available! I have taken to 
cleaning the heavy stuff off my gear and then putting everything in my washing 
machine (set on hot) to soak. I just fill up my washer with hot water, put all 
my gear in there, close the lid, and leave it for 20 minutes. Then I pull out 
my helmet, footware, knee pads, etc. before letting the wash cycle continue. 
Seems to work well and doesn't kill my hands with exposure to harsh chemicals. 
Check the temperature on your hot water heater and the resultant temperature of 
your hot wash cycle to ensure that it maintains the 122-degree water 
temperature for the full 20 minutes.
