Dishwasher detergent tablets are great for removing stains

Stains on clothes are an unpleasant problem that can even ruin your mood. However, there are many ways to remove stains, and one of them is to use dishwasher tablets.

Dishwasher tablets contain ingredients that help dissolve grease and dirt, so they can be effective in removing stains from grease, coffee, juices, sauces and other contaminants.

To remove a stain with a dishwasher tablet, follow these steps:

  • Dissolve one dishwasher tablet in three litres of warm water.
  • Put the stained items in a bowl and pour the solution over the stains.
  • Leave it for an hour.
  • Then put the items in the washing machine and add another dishwasher tablet to the drum.
  • Switch on the desired washing cycle.

This life hack can be used to remove stains from any fabric, but it is important to check the fabric's washability before using dishwasher tablets.

Here are some additional tips for removing stains from clothes:

  1. Remove the stain as soon as possible.
  2. The longer the stain is on the fabric, the harder it will be to remove.
  3. Do not use hot water, as this can "set" the stain.
  4. Do not use bleach as it can damage coloured fabrics.
