LEARN TO USE SOAP NUTS

“…I feel like I am actually in control of my laundry!  I choose whether to use more nuts or
less, whiteners, fragrances… It’s a great feeling.”  Toshi, San Francisco, CA

How to Use
Put Maggie’s Soap Nuts into the included, reusable
cotton sack. Tie it closed.  Add the sack to your
washing machine and follow clothing manufacturer
instructions.  Return Soap Nuts to the earth by
adding them to your compost!  It’s that simple!

Nuts:
Put 5 Maggie’s Soap Nuts into the cotton sack, tie a knot and drop it in your
laundry. Leave the sack in the machine through the complete wash and rinse
cycles.

HE washers: Use 2-3 Maggie’s Soap Nuts. Put the sack in the machine with
your clothes. Reuse 2-3 times.
Hand washables: Soak a few Maggie’s Soap Nuts in a cup of hot water for a few
minutes. Add the liquid to your cool hand wash.

your machine so your fabric has lots of room to agitate.

removed. Wash normally.

they no longer feel slippery when wet.
