I know that dish washer detergent isn't really all that expensive, but what if you can make it yourself and cost you even less??? You can, and I do! Using the ingredients I make my laundry detergent (previous post), I can make my dish detergent too!
All you need is:
- borax
- washing soda
- jar/s
- white vinegar (to spray)/spray bottle
- funnel if want to eliminate any spillage
Then transfer the ingredients back into the jars
Then use a scoop into your dishwasher like you would with a store bought product.
I also make a white vinegar spray that I like to spray on all the dishes before I run the dishwasher. Its just again a 50/50 ratio of vinegar to water. Its like "jet dry" where it leaves a spot free, streaky clean finish, but CHEAPER!!!!
