Milk is not only a tasty and healthy product, but also an excellent helper in the household.

Did you know that milk can be used to wash clothes? Our grandmothers knew this secret, and it is still relevant today.

Why do you need to add milk during washing?

Milk has a number of beneficial properties that help care for clothes.

• Milk gives clothes a snow-white color, eliminating yellowness and stains.

• Milk softens the fabric, making it more pleasant to the touch.

How to Properly Add Milk During Washing

To add milk during washing, you will need:

• Milk (preferably fresh and natural).

• Water (warm or hot depending on the type of fabric).

• Washing machine or bucket.

The method for adding milk depends on how you wash your clothes.

If you prefer to use a washing machine to wash your clothes, we suggest adding 2-3 tablespoons of milk to the special compartment of the washing machine. Run the wash as usual.

If you wash clothes by hand, add 1-2 cups of milk to a bucket of water.

Place the garment in the bucket and leave for 15-20 minutes. Then wash the garment as usual.

After washing with milk, you will notice how your clothes become cleaner, fresher and softer.
