I have no issues using my machine for this, cant be any worse than washing the horse blankets in there lol.

Have not used the washing machine myself, but a lot of people do. Just add a little bleach with the wash cycle. I would probably turn them inside out, too, so all the crud gets washed out. I think this is probably a way better than manual washing them like I did.
You still need to let them dry, to air out any bleach, and perhaps use a dechlorizer soak as well. That's why you want a bunch of them, so you can clean several at a time.
And if you do go filter socks, use the large 7" inch ones, as they last a lot longer.
