For an eco-friendly disinfectant boost, add a tablespoon of hydrogen peroxide to the soaking mix. It’s safe on whites and breaks down into water and oxygen, making it a greener choice than bleach.
Frequently Asked Questions:
🟡 Can I use this method on colored towels?
It’s best for white or light-colored towels. For colored towels, skip the lemon juice and test a corner first.
🟡 Will vinegar make my towels smell bad?
No—vinegar deodorizes and the smell disappears once dried, especially if sun-dried.
🟡 Can I use this trick in a washing machine?
Yes! You can add vinegar to the rinse cycle and sprinkle baking soda in the drum—but the soaking method is more effective for deep stains.
🟡 How often should I do this?
Every 1–2 months is ideal, or whenever you notice towels losing their brightness.
