Homemade Dishwasher Detergent

October 29, 2018 by Kim Danger Leave a Comment

Yes, making your own household cleaners and detergents in a great way to save money. Here’s one that was originally posted years ago, but it still works like a charm!

For Homemade Dishwasher Detergent You’ll Need:

  • Homemade DIY Dishwasher Detergent1 C. Borax (20 Mule-Team Borax is cheap HERE on Amazon)
  • 1 C. Washing Soda (you’ll find that HERE on Amazon) – Don’t confuse this with baking soda, it’s not the same thing, although you can get it from Arm & Hammer.
  • ½ C. citric acid (you’ll find that HERE on Amazon) – You can use this to make Homemade Bath Bombs too
  • ½ C. kosher salt

Mix all the ingredients and store in an airtight container or jar.  Use 1 Tbsp per load.  This batch makes enough for about 24 loads.  Don’t substitute any of the ingredients, or your dishwasher detergent won’t work effectively.  The Borax isn’t a liquid, but it does help emulsify the other ingredients while in action.  The citric acid keeps it from clumping together.
