PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a sanitization device for a washing machine with an antimicrobial agent which can give antibacterial effect to laundry sufficiently and can gradually elute a stable antibacterial component.SOLUTION: A sanitization device for a washing machine has feed water means which can supply water drawn from an outside water source by a self-suction-type feed pump device comprised within a housing to a washing tub. In a pump body pooling priming water in the feed pump device, an antimicrobial agent dissolving to water gradually is contained with a state soaked in the water. 【課題】洗濯物への抗菌効果を十分に付与でき且つ安定した抗菌成分を徐溶できる抗菌剤を備えた洗濯機用除菌装置を提供することにある。【解決手段】本実施形態の洗濯機用除菌装置は、筐体内に備えた自吸式の給水ポンプ装置により外部水源から汲み上げた水を洗濯槽内に供給可能とする給水手段を有する。前記給水ポンプ装置にあって呼び水を貯留するポンプ本体内に、貯留した水に浸漬した状態で水徐溶性の抗菌剤を収容する構成とする。【選択図】図１
