A good dishwashing detergent is effective, but it is quite expensive.

This is why many housewives want to start saving gel.

But how can you use much less cleaning product and still manage to get the same number of plates clean as before?

It turns out that there is one simple additive that will cut your dishwashing detergent consumption in half without sacrificing efficiency and quality.

What supplement are we talking about?

The housewife will be able to use the dishwashing liquid twice as long if she adds baking soda to the container with the gel.

Or more precisely, not the powdered product itself, but a solution prepared on its basis.

The supplement is prepared as follows: dissolve 2-3 tablespoons of sodium bicarbonate in 250 milliliters of warm water.

You will get a solution that should be mixed with 250 milliliters of dishwashing gel.

As a result, you will have a mixture that will be as effective as half a liter of cleaning agent without soda additives.

The fact is that sodium bicarbonate provides the formation of a large amount of foam.

Thus, it makes sense for housewives to act as follows: if there is half of the product left in the container, then the remaining volume should be filled with a soda solution. As a result, you will get a whole bottle of gel.
