DIY Laundry Pretreater

Whether you're using a DIY Detergent or a store bought detergent, you're going to need a pretreater. With three kids, it seems like I'm always getting these little oily spots on my clothes that seem to not come out in a normal wash. This mix works well on stains and oily/greasy spots too!

This pretreater is affordable and easy to make. I hope you love it as much as I do. You'll need some DIY detergent, a bar of Fels Naptha soap (I highty recommend this bar for it's stain fighting abilities), a bottle and/or spray bottle and hot water.

Thanks for this. I've been struggling to come up with a pre-treatment that works!

Since we're thinking green, what is Fels Naptha made of? And where do you buy it? I don't think I've seen it in stores.

Thank you so much for sharing this one. I am going to try and mix up some of these pre-treater, then cloth diapering detergent and the clothing detergent. Awesome! :)
