What is Borax?
Borax is a naturally occurring mineral. It's produced by the "repeated evaporation of seasonal lakes." That's right, it's made by Mother Nature and has been used for laundry (and other uses) for more than 100 years.
I have found that Borax is awesome on stains and it also gets rid of odors. But that's not all Borax is good for:
- Removes soap scum and hard water deposits (I've tried it, works great).
- Can be used in carpet cleaning machines (I've tried this one too).
- Helps reduce water spots in the dishwasher (and this one).
- Helps to clean and shine pots and pans (you guessed, been there done that).
There is only one thing I use more than Borax, baking soda... but that's a topic for another post.
If you've been spending the big bucks on another laundry booster, that I won't name (but starts with oxy), I encourage you to give Borax a go, because it's soooo much cheaper!
