I really need a boost in my wash, and like oxi clean. But I really would like to make my own. I am sure one of you girls out there are already on it. Do you have a recipe you want to share?? Thanks so much - I always can count on you girls. I love all your input..

If it is a stain remover that you want, I would suggest either Hydrogen peroxide. This is very useful for stains. Just be careful that it will not alter the fabric. If you want to just boost the laundry itself then try lemon juice as a pre-laundry treatment. Just add the lemon juice to your water before you add any clothes so as to dilute it. As with the Hydrogen peroxide it can fade your clothes. I usually add it to the water and when the machine is about 1/2 full of water then I will add my clothes.

Thanks Becky..I wanted it for a boost to my homemade laundry detergent. My whites are not that white, and I was thinking of oxi clean to help. Also, what do you suggest for stain removal?? Most of my stains are on my dish towels. I have tried rubbing with fel naptha, but with not too much success. Thanks for any input
