Brilio.net - White clothes tend to get dirty and stained easily. Stains on white clothes will be difficult to remove if not cleaned immediately. Detergent manufacturers have anticipated this by producing special bleaching detergents. These bleaching detergents are sold on the market to facilitate the process of washing white clothes.
Cleaning stains on white clothes does not always require chemical bleach. A YouTube/TEROPONG News user shared his experience of cleaning oil, sauce, and ink stains using natural ingredients that are easy to find. The use of natural ingredients has proven to be as effective as bleach detergent. This method is also considered more economical compared to using commercially available bleach detergent.
"Just use simple ingredients that are cheap and available around us, without the hassle of using bleach. This is how to remove stains on white clothes," he explained, quoted by BrilioFood from YouTube/TEROPONG News on Monday (11/25).
The only ingredient needed is a papaya leaf to wash one white shirt . Reported from healthline.com, papaya leaves can function as a cleaning agent because they contain the enzyme papain. Not only on clothes, but papaya leaves can also be used to clean other kitchen utensils, such as glasses, plates, and others.

The method is, first soak the white clothes you want to clean in a basin filled with water. Rub to remove stains that are not too dry. Next, take papaya leaves and squeeze them using your hands. Immediately rub the papaya leaves onto the stains on the white clothes.

Rub continuously for a few minutes until the stain on the white clothes fades. If the stain is gone, the clothes can be washed again using laundry soap or regular detergent. After that, rinse the clothes until clean. Well, the clothes are ready to be dried in the sun until dry. How, easy right? Are you curious to try it at home?
