When it comes to household cleaning products I am always looking for things that can get the job done effectively and cut back on my to do list and the time everything takes to get done. And when I read that 20 Mule Team Borax not only will remove stains but can also be used in toilets, drains, and other household things I was thrilled. Yes, that's right it not only is a laundry booster but also a multipurpose household cleaner!
The second I found this out, I took the box of 20 Mule Team Borax I received and began cleaning the toilets with it and scrubbing the sink drain! Before I get ahead of myself let me give you the basic facts about Borax. It's a 100% natural mineral from the earth and once it's removed from the ground it is washed, dried, and boxed up for us to use! It's basically sodium tetraborate with nothing added, no chemicals or chlorine.
Borax is great if you have hard water because hard water can leave calcium and magnesium granules at th ebottom of your washing machine when you put the detergent in. It basically wastes detergent. But Borax will soften hard water so it protects your detergent and maximizes the ability for it to clean.
Here is what I used my box of Borax for:
1. Cleaner Clothes
I added a 1/2 cup of Borax to every load along with my usual Purex detergent. My clothes definitely came out cleaner and brighter this time!
2. I poured it into the toilet ( just about 1/4 cup) then scrubbed it with a brush. The stains disappeared and the typical toilet bowl smell was gone!
3. Cleaning Pet Supplies
I used Borax to clean my rat's cage out and after rinsing it thoroughly, was pleased that there was no smell or residue left! oh, and my rattie girl was pleased as well!
What an awesome product with so many uses!
