Also a good dishwasher soap recipe is: 1 tbsp. Borax and 1 tbsp. baking soda. The soda stops the sudsing. I tried and didn’t like it, but my mom loves it. It is all she uses now. She has well water and we have city water, which may have something to do with it.

Yeah, apparently Borax is quite the old time miracle ingredient. Did you know you can spread a little in a band around your house and it will carpenter ants? Seems to work pretty good. And it doesn’t hurt the bees, etc.

I think the ants try to eat it or something.

It cleans drains pretty good too.

Plus, hey, they sponsored “Death Valley Days” when I was a kid. :)
