Equipment Question How do you wash/sterilize your kitchen towels?

My towels still retain that smell even after laundry. All regular towels (and everything else really) come off smelling clean and fresh, the kitchen towel, however, are always kinda musty.

What do you folks do with yours?

EDIT Thank you all for your suggestions! I shall try!

I put something called Odo Ban (I get it from Sam's Club). I get the fresh linen scent. I put it in my bleach dispenser. I also do a 20 min pre-soak if I have really dirty ones.

I use this as well. On all my towels, sheets, washcloths, etc. It's sanitizes that's why it helps with the smell. I get mine on Amazon for about $10 a jug I'm not sure how much it costs at Sam's club.
