  • 3 quarts (litres) water

Method: Add the soapnuts to the water. Bring the water to a boil. Turn down the heat to a low simmer for at least 30 minutes.

Soapnuts in Tea Towels

Soapnuts in Tea Towels

The ultimate earth-friendly laundry detergent.

Soapnuts have been used for everything from removing lice to silver polish. They are actually helpful for sewer systems, and can be reused for several laundry loads.

The pouch is made from recycled tea towels (colors vary) and can be tossed in with a load of laundry and dried out to wait for the next washing. Soapnuts have no smell so you can add your own favorite essential oil such as rosemary, musk or amber.

Each pouch includes 5 soapnuts which can be used for at least 5 loads of laundry.
