Borax For Carpet Cleaning - and More Borax Tips and Hints around the House

Happy Slob reader, Lourene, sent me in the following email after trying the carpet cleaning formula on our website.

"I USED YOUR ADVICE FOR THE CARPET CLEANING SOLUTION, BUT I DID ONE
EXTRA THING I USED 1 CUP OF BORAX. IT WAS AMAZING TO SEE WHAT CAME UP.
I WILL NEVER HAVE A CLEANING SERVICE COME IN ANYMORE. I WILL RENT A
RUG DOCTOR AND USE THE CLEANING SOLUTION I MADE. ONE MORE THING I DID
IS BOIL WATER IN A BIG POT TO HAVE THAT VERY HOT WATER,

THANK YOU FOR THE TIP."

Thanks Lourene! I'm a huge fan of Borax. Here are some more handy Borax cleaning tips I've posted or researched over the years.

Borax as a Natural Air Freshener
Borax Dishwasher Detergent Substitute
Borax to Remove Toilet Stains

And remember, Borax is pretty easy to find in the supermarket, Walmart or wherever you shop. Just look in the laundry department, and it should be there sitting amongst the boxes of detergent. And it's frugal, hurray! (You can also order Borax online if you can't find it locally, check out this link for 20 Mule Team Borax )
