So far, I’ve tried this recipe of laundry detergent. HOWEVER, we have switched to store-bought, chemical-filled for awhile, to get rid of an infection that has plagued several of my peeps. OR, you could once in a while add a couple tablespoons of bleach to the water. With this recipe, I found that it didn’t do a great job on whites – but worked well, if I let the whites soak in 2 Tbsp of laundry soap, with 2 Tbsp of Oxy-clean. Good luck!
Laundry Soap:
1 cup of shredded bar soap (I use Ivory)
1/2 cup Borax (cheeeeeeaaaaap!) 
1/2 cup washing soda – also very cheap to buy.
Mix up, and use ONE tablespoon per load -isn’t that amazing? I usually do up a double batch, and leave a cute little measuring spoon in it. I use a white plastic tub and lid to store my homemade laundry soap. You know where I got it? I purchased pre-made cookie dough from daughter’s school! Well, everything can’t be homemade! lol
Good luck mommies,
