How To Get White Socks Without Using Bleach

socks

I read about this tip from ReNest.com.  If you want to outlaw the use of bleach, maybe you could give this a try.  Get a big pot, toss in the scruffy socks, cover them with water and boil them with a slice of lemon or two.  Remove them after ten minutes.   The socks will be bright and not to mention, smell like some lemonade (I’m kidding).  I haven’t tried this method before.  Let me know the results if you have tried it.  Besides being a great fat burner like apidexin, lemons make wonderful natural cleaning products that can be used at home.

    I saw my confinement lady used this method on my white kitchen cloth. It worked perfectly. I’ve tried it once only, because I still prefer using bleach.

    I also learned lemon is useful in a lot of cleaning tasks. I used lemon to wash the stubborn tea stain on my cup.
