Washing clean, non-toxic, and environmentally friendly clothes is what many modern housewives want. That is also the reason why the natural laundry method of MrJo - a famous green living vlogger in Korea - received millions of views and shares.
On his personal YouTube channel, MrJo often shows how to clean clothes using kitchen ingredients. A prominent and widely used recipe is the combination of white vinegar - baking soda - lemon.
The implementation is as follows:
Squeeze 2-3 tablespoons of vinegar into a pot of warm water, steep clothes for about 15 minutes to remove the odor and soften the fabric.
Sprinkle baking soda directly on stains or yellow stains, and use a brush to gently comb.
Squeeze lemon juice into the area that needs cleaning to increase the cleaning and disinfection efficiency.
When you use vinegar and lemon properly, not only are white clothes cleaner, but you also reduce the amount of chemicals released into the environment. He also emphasized that vinegar should not be mixed with chemical exfoliants because it can produce toxic gases.
According to Cleanipedia, baking soda and vinegar are both natural cleansers that can remove stains, deodorize and soften fabric without causing skin irritation - especially suitable for children and people with sensitive skin.
