To boost the cleaning power of your laundry detergent, you can add borax directly to your washing machine.
Boosting Laundry Cleaning with Borax
Using borax in your laundry routine can help enhance the effectiveness of your regular detergent, leading to cleaner clothes. The process is simple and can be incorporated into your standard wash cycle.
Here’s how to use borax when doing laundry:
- Determine the Amount: Use 1/2 cup of borax for each load of laundry.
- Add to the Washer: The borax is a dry powder and should be added directly to the washer drum.
- When to Add: Add the borax to the empty drum before adding the dirty laundry.
- Washer Type: This method works for both front-loading and top-loading washing machines.
Adding borax in this manner helps to boost the cleaning power of your detergent, contributing to better results for your laundry.
