Recipe Notes

If you are adding this to your laundry, I'd skip the detergent and the water in this recipe, and add a 1/2 cup or so of the solution to your laundry load. For soaking, I'd dilute it a bit more than this. It's cheap, especially if you wait for hydrogen peroxide to go on sale, and it's easy. But you should still keep it out of the reach of kids.
