Green Tip of the Month: Wash your clothes in phosphate free home made detergent. It’s easy, better for the environment, and it will save you money.
Recipe:
2 cups Borax
2 cups washing soda, such as Arm & Hammer
1 bar of Fels Naptha soap, grated
Fels Naptha can be found in the cleaning aisle of most major grocery stores.
There are many versions of this recipe available on the internet, but this one is the simplest and I find that it works quite well.
Mix to combine all ingredients. Put them in a food processor and pulse for an ultra-fine mix.
Use 1 tablespoon for a regular load, and use 2 tablespoons for a heavily soiled load.
