White socks are prone to showing up stains and looking dingy and grimy, but a laundry expert has shared a 'surprising' way to restore the whiteness and eliminate the stains
Many people favour the comfort of light, airy white socks during the sweltering summer months, but their glaring drawback is how challenging they are to keep pristine.
As reports the Express, Henry revealed: "Lemon juice, with its natural bleaching properties, can work wonders in whitening your socks when used in boiling. It's a simple, natural, and cost-effective method that you'll find surprisingly effective." Citric acid found aplenty in fruits like oranges, limes, and lemons serves as a gentle, natural bleaching agent that not only tackles stains effectively but also imparts a renewed brightness to the fabric.
Carefully pour the hot lemon-infused water into the basin and let the socks soak for a minimum of two hours, or even longer for better results.
