They are there, faithful to the station every day in our kitchens: tea towels and towels. By wiping, cleaning and drying, they end up soaking up with stubborn smells and stains. What about those made of white cloth? They yellow, tarnish, lose their shine. You might think that there's only bleach to save them... But that's not the case. There are natural, soft and very high-performance solutions that give a second youth to your clothes without damaging it. Are you ready to clean up differently? Let's go.
Sodium bicarbonate: the champion of all categories
As essential as a good knife in the , sodium bicarbonate is a veritable Swiss knife in the natural household. For your tea towels, just add 50 g (about 3 to 4 tablespoons) into the drum of your washing machine. This simple gesture helps to remove inlaid spots, revives whites and neutralizes bad odours, all without attacking textile fibers.
White vinegar: the sweetening from the closet
Did you think it was only a dressing? Don't get any worse: it is also an excellent household product. White vinegar is a weight ally for laundry maintenance. Add 20 cl (a large glass) to the softening compartment of your machine. It acts as a descaling agent, removes laundry residues, softens the fabric and restores it freshness and suppleness. As a bonus: it is very effective in neutralizing cooking odors.
