Wash & reuse freezer & other plastic bags

Freezer and other plastic bags in the washing machine to reuse them? I hope I do not trigger another mite catastrophe here. Does anyone have any concerns about my practice for years:

Bags that have been filled with unproblematic content, I dry (as needed) and collect them until a worthwhile amount has accumulated (for the very exact: in an extra plastic bag storage laundry bag).

It should have been (for me) only fruits and vegetables, breads of all kinds, pasta and so on. Anything that is ruinous and not quite appealing to me (meat and so on, but also cooked food, I also like to freeze in plastic bags, since I can stow away more of it) is thrown away. Since I'm the cost of a really hygienic and fat-free cleaning too high.


I then wash them at 60 degrees - sometimes I even add a little hygiene rinse - let them spin well and hang them (once turned over, so that no residual water remains in the bag) and slightly bagged (dry faster) to the clothesline.

So I almost never have to buy new plastic bags (I used to get used to it because of oil shortage, but I do not know if you still need oil for it today) and I'm happy to protect the environment.

Do I live with it dangerous?
