How Do I Stop My Well Water from Staining My Clothes

Wash your whites with regular detergent, add 1/2 cup of hydrogen peroxide or a scoop of borax to each load, and line dry them in the sun. You can also purchase a product called Iron Out and add it to the rinse cycle after using bleach. In addition, you can purchase a couple gallons of store-bought water and add 1 tbsp.

How do you prevent well water stains on clothes?

  1. Use liquid detergent rather than powder.
  2. Add a half-cup of laundry borax to each load, to improve your detergent’s cleaning ability.
  3. Do not use chlorine bleach because it will set stains permanently.
