Sometimes you laugh, sometimes you cry, sometimes you just want to throw them in the trash… but dirty white clothing doesn’t have to stay ruined. Clorox Bleach can make them look great again!
Ok, raise your hand.. How many of you have ever yelled at the kids for running around outside in their socks… without shoes??? I’ve done it several times. The last time, it was still wet outside from one of our awesome rain storms, and they had walked through mud… Dark, Wet, Sticky, Mud. I freaked. Of course they got in trouble since they’ve been told several times to either wear their shoes, or take their socks off. They took their socks off, and left them at the door. Fine, but now what was I supposed to do with these nasty socks? I tried washing them, but the stains didn’t budge. I was really ready to toss them but then I remembered that Clorox provided me with a couple of bottles of bleach, and I really needed to take care of this blog post!
First thing I did was wash a load of white clothes on the washer. I did add some Clorox Bleach to the wash as directed. When I took the clothes out, the large group of clothes were very bright white, but the socks still needed some work. Now that they had been through a wash cycle, and had loosened the soil, I set up a sink with hot water, and poured a little bit of bleach into it. I then soaked the socks in it, and agitated it a bit with my hands. I let it sit for about 20 minutes, and went back to rinse them off. They looked fantastic. They’re not new socks, so I didn’t expect them to be perfectly white, but I did like how well they cleaned up. Check out the before and after!
