My two cats & I were being eaten alive by fleas from the nieghbors cat...a colleague with lots of animals asked if I had heard of 20 Mule Team Borax. Of course, I said but not in years. She told me it was an inexpensive remedy for the problem. Boy, was she right! I sprinkled it on the carpets and furniture. I climbed in the bed and watched the fleas attempt to jump out of the carpet... Later I vacuummed all areas. NO FLEAS! For a saftey measure, I repeated and vacuumed the next day! NO FLEAS ~ must have gotten the eggs, too! NEVER a Flea AGAIN! I keep a box on hand...

Comments about 20 Mule Team Borax Natural Laundry Booster & Multi-Purpose Household Cleaner, 76 oz:
I just added this to a load of laundry that included my daughter's white North Face raincoat that had make-up stains all over the collar and had sat in her closet since winter....the collar is completely white again! That's why I add Borax to every load. And the icing on the cake; it's all natural!!

Comments about 20 Mule Team Borax Natural Laundry Booster & Multi-Purpose Household Cleaner, 76 oz:
I use mainly for clothes soaking and/or washing with. My son has taken it to school to use for experiments. The only negative for me is the spout is too big. I would like a smaller, tightly closed spout. The cost is an issue but I would prob. buy anyway.

Comments about 20 Mule Team Borax Natural Laundry Booster & Multi-Purpose Household Cleaner, 76 oz:
I'm a first-time Borax user and so far have only added it to the laundry. I'm impressed with the enhanced cleaning and color brightening of clothes. I bought it because I have read of lots of different uses and I like the idea of using a product with fewer chemicals.
Comments about 20 Mule Team Borax Natural Laundry Booster & Multi-Purpose Household Cleaner, 76 oz:
I first bought a box to make a faux playdo for my kids. Very easy and lasts longer. Then I used it to augment my laundry detergent and it was brilliant. Then I used it as part of a natural ant killing recipe and it worked wonders! I will always keep a box of this around. :-)
Regular Wash - Add 1/2 cup 20 Mule Team®* Borax to each wash load along with the recommended amount of detergent. For large capacity machines add 3/4 cup. For front-loading machines use 1/2 cup.
Pre-soaking Stains - Add one tablespoon of 20 Mule Team®* Borax per gallon of water or 1/2 cup in washer. Pre-soak for at least 30 minutes before washing.
For Cleaning:
Cleaning Cookware - 20 Mule Team®* Borax is a mild and gentle cleaner for porcelain and aluminum cookware. Sprinkle 20 Mule Team®* Borax on pots and pans as you would a dry cleanser and rub with a damp dishcloth. No need to worry about scratching, Borax is not abrasive. Rinse thoroughly.
Carpet Spills and Stains - For problem wet areas, blot up spill, sprinkle on 20 Mule Team®* Borax to cover area, let dry and vacuum. For problem stains try the "wine and alcohol stains" directions included.
Wine and Alcohol Stains - Dissolve 1/2 cup of 20 Mule Team®* Borax in a pint of water. Sponge in the solution, wait 1/2 hour, then shampoo the spotted area. Let dry and vacuum. These stains are touch ones and your changes of success are better the sooner you treat them.
For Deodorizing:
Garbage Disposals - 20 Mule Team®* Borax Laundry Booster helps deodorize food waste disposals by neutralizing acidic odors. Sprinkle 2-3 tablespoons in the drain, let it stand for at least 15 minutes, then flush with water for a few seconds with the disposal on. This treatment can also be used in your regular sink drains.
Mattress Odors - Urine odors from mattresses and mattress covers may be neutralized by dampening the spot and sprinkling 20 Mule Team®* Borax over it. Rub the 20 Mule Team®* Borax into the areas and let dry. Brush or vacuum to remove the dry borax.
Pet Urine and Sour Spilled Milk Odors - Use the same procedure as listed for mattress odors.
