Instead of using highly corrosive bleaches, which can cause a number of harmful health effects, including skin and respiratory tract burns, nausea, and headaches, it is worth using natural, home remedies.
In Germany, bleaches have already been categorically banned due to their negative impact on health and the environment. Although there are no such restrictions in Nigeria yet, more and more people are opting for alternative methods, such as bleaching clothes with aspirin.

Home methods can effectively remove stains from clothes, restoring their perfect whiteness. In the case of curtains, it is worth using baking powder, while aspirin works well for clothes.
Interestingly, this medicine can not only brighten clothes and restore their proper colour, but also remove yellow stains under the arms. This is an excellent way to care for white fabrics. However, you must be careful not to use aspirin on coloured fabrics. In such a situation, the medicine can cause stains.
To use aspirin to remove stains, simply crush a few tablets and throw them into the washing machine drum. In addition to the tablets, of course, you should add washing liquid and fabric softener. We can use the same mixture for hand washing. This is a good home method for whitening clothes.
