What type of laundry detergent works best?
Any standard laundry detergent will do. For best whitening results, use a powder detergent with whitening agents or enzymes.
Can I add hydrogen peroxide for extra whitening?
Yes, hydrogen peroxide is a great natural bleach alternative. Add about 1/2 cup to the soak if you need stronger whitening. Avoid using it too frequently, as it can break down fabric over time.
How can I remove odors from pillows?
This cleaning method already neutralizes odors effectively. For ongoing freshness, sprinkle baking soda on dry pillows every couple of weeks, let it sit for 30 minutes, then vacuum it off.
Can I dry the pillows in direct sunlight every time?
Yes, sun drying is excellent for whitening and killing bacteria. Just avoid leaving pillows out in extreme humidity or overnight, which could reintroduce moisture.
What if the pillow still looks yellow after one wash?
Heavily stained pillows might need a second soaking or an overnight soak. Repeat the process and ensure the water stays hot during the soak.
