A couple of DIY recipes for a bleach alternative.
There are some DIY alternatives for keeping clothing and linens white, including various concoctions of baking soda, liquid soap, lemon juice, Borax and white vinegar.
Here are a couple recipes adapted from Casasugar.com.
• 1/2 cup Borax
• 2 gallons of hot water
Mix Borax with hot water and let stand for at least five minutes. Then, use as you would bleach.
Hydrogen Peroxide (3 percent—anything stronger would be too harsh for most materials).
Spot clean with hydrogen peroxide. Let dry. Repeat if necessary.
