White items (clothes and underwear) may turn yellow or acquire a gray tint not only due to pollution, but also as a result of long-term storage. Currently, stores have a very large range of detergents. These are various powders, bleaches, washing gels, stain removers and conditioners for rinsing. All these detergents remove any dirt and make the laundry clean. But these funds have a significant drawback: they can cause allergies.
Instruction manual
1
If you have a need to return things to their original whiteness, then boiling (cooking) will come to the rescue. Boiling is the most ancient way of whitening. Boiled mostly white cotton or linen bedding and tablecloths.
2
If you need to boil the laundry, prepare an enameled bucket (tank) and bleach. Pour bleach into the tank (read the instructions on the packet for the percentage of water to powder), then pour lightly warm water, stir the bleach and lay the laundry so that the water covers it. Do not put things immediately in boiling water, the mud will boil and it will be more difficult to remove it. Put the tank on a slow fire and bring to a boil. Boil for 1.5-2 hours, periodically stir the contents of the tank. Then turn off the heat and let things cool. After boiling, put the laundry in warm water, wash the residual stains with your hands.

Bleach can be replaced with other recipes.
Dissolve 0.5 kg of bleach and 0.5 kg of soda ash in ten liters of water. Strain the solution and boil the laundry in it. This method will make the laundry without special additives perfectly clean.
4
Another solution of the solution is soap-soda. It is prepared at the rate of 6 liters per 1 kg of linen. Take 20-50 grams of soap and soda (soda ash or regular). Dissolve them in water and boil the laundry in this solution.
5
10 liters of water, 2 tbsp. tablespoons ammonia and 2 tbsp. tablespoons 3% hydrogen peroxide. Boil the laundry in this solution for 40 minutes.
You can boil the laundry after washing or, conversely, before it. Dry your products outdoors: the wind and the sun will give them a fresh aroma that no rinse aid can give.
6
But do not rush to crawl on the mezzanine to look for that huge pan. A washing machine can also help you in this matter, just set the temperature to 90-95 ° C when washing. Washing at this temperature is equal to boiling. But look carefully at the recommendations for caring for products, whether they can be washed at high temperatures.
