Vinegar

Vinegar is a versatile product that has a wide range of applications not only in cooking. It can remove grease and dirt even on fabrics.

If you want to preserve the color of your clothes, we recommend soaking them in a 1:1 solution of water and vinegar before putting them in the washing machine. Then wash it as usual.

You can also add this product to the laundry along with the laundry detergent. Vinegar will not only get rid of limescale and sediment in the drum, but also prevent the clothes from being electrified.

Lemon is best consumed with tea. However, it also has interesting uses, such as cleaning. Many smart housewives use lemon juice when they want to get rid of limescale in the bathroom. It will also become your reliable assistant when doing laundry.

If our white clothes have lost their appeal, soak them for several hours in water with lemon juice or lemon slices. This "bath" will help whiten things and emphasize the color of the fabrics.

If you want to enhance the effect, pour the juice of the whole fruit into the powder container of the washing machine.

Tea
