With your sink try using the hot water before you add the crystals the hot water will loosen any grease and debris and then add the crystals and if you can leave for a few hours before you rince away with more hot water then of corse youl get better results.x
Lovely video fellow mum.
On an off note,Spoiler alert for those using vinegar after soda, apologies in advance.
Using vinegar with soda crystals actually neutralises the cleaning action of both as one is an acid and the other alkali.
The foam and bubbling may appear dramatic and give an impression of additional cleaning but you may be wasting your money though.
Thanks. This explains in more detail www.dri-pak.co.uk/cleaning-plug-holes-and-drains/
Dri Pak I was just about to add the same comment. It is satisfying but counterproductive! Water does the trick!
Many many thanks .. Ive always used vinegar 🙈 rather than water … wow I’m so glad for this info … 🥰
I loved this!! Thank you so sharing ❤️😊
1st video I watched.. very informative. Thank you!! Hope you get more and more subscribers!! 😘
When cleaning the toilet with a brush, don’t put the wet brush back in the holder to drip and sit in a puddle, balance the brush on the rim and close the seat over it to keep it in place. The water will drain back into the toilet and then you put the dry brush back into the holder. Much more hygienic.
I love soda crystals. I use them in my washing machine often, also I pop them in with heavily soiled clothes!
Thank you for your advice excellent tips:)
Absolutely brilliant thank you
Trick put it on cottons 90 I’ve got the same washing machine and put speed perfect on
you can use it to clean stained coffee/teacups too. put a table spoon of the crystals in the cup top up with boiling water ,leave over night,then just rinse in the morning , use a bottle brush too if you have one.
Thank you .. 🥰
Thanks for the video. Re tins. Remove food gunk with kitchen paper asap after use and/or after applying the soda use the paper to mop up which will prevent such a messy cloth.
Also prevent all the gunk going down the sink
I never thought about using it in my toilet.... awesome tips. New subscriber
It's got so many uses! X

Thanks for sharing, it’s great to see British people are getting into youtube as well. Because the product that we use here is different than US.
Use white vinegar down plugs after the soda crystals, the chemical reaction creates a foaming agitating compound which removes debris easier, then pour in a capful of zoflora for a nice smell and antibacterial action
Love this! Thank you xx
Another way to do this is with bicarbonate of soda with citric acid. Pack the slow draining plug hole with the powders then pour down some boiled water and you get an excellent fizz that dislodges the debris. Add some nice essential oils to get a nice scent boost too, lemongrass is lovely (and cheap online). I got this one from Kim and Aggie years ago and after seeing them do it became almost obsessed with finding drains to do it on lol.
@@sophiahamilton1262 amazing tip! Thank youxx
@@sophiahamilton1262 use Soda Crystals and hot water first as that's what dissolves grease. The 'agitation' method can also be useful, but is best performed AFTER Soda Crystals and hot water.
I bought soda crystals a couple of years ago after watching this video and then forgot all about it. Today I thought, what's the best way to clean my sinks and what did I buy those soda crystals for. Ta-da, this is why .. I'm off to clean before I forget. New habits start now.
Such much cheaper than using other products and so versatile!
I also put in conditioner draw stops black gunge
Thank You
Love using soda crystals(in US washing soda )for cleaning my stainless steel pots( after overnight soaking they shine:)
Really handy, thanks, and good to see that you're UK too :-) What was the name of the blue cloth that you used on the grill piece under the kitchen sink tap? (so I know what to search for at Tesco). Didn't quite catch what you said. Have got some soda crystals though and it's still £1 at Tesco :-)
It's a Spontex, from their kitchen kit: www.spontex.co.uk/product/microfibre-kitchen-kit/
@@TheMummyBubble Thanks!!
Use White Vinegar to clean the dishwasher.
Can just this to whiten up my tile grout
Can this be used in the electric oven?
how would you clean burnt stuff off side of an oven
cool the soda crystals are grate
Limescale is alkaline and so are soda crystals so as far as I understand it you need something like vinegar or citric acid for limescale.
Also fab in your washing machine each wash in really hard water areas to stop creasing AND for cleaning white ceramic sinks. Sprinkle scrub and wash away! I love them too and will be trying it on dirty pans next!
I went into home bargains last week and saw soda crystals in there for 69p :) x
Sarah Dean ooh fab, thanks for the tip xx
Thank you for looking at ways not to harm aquatic life.

Where do I buy these Soda Crystals in Italy.
Thanks for a great video. If I’m putting soda crystals in the washing machine drawer while washing laundry which compartment should it go it?
Hi, I'm no expert but I put soda crystals in the detergent compartment of my washing machine with every wash :)
Soda Crystals soften water and boost the power of the laundry detergent. It can go in the drawer or the drum. You can mix it with powder, but obviously if you use it with liquid detergent it will clump. We'd recommend putting liquid in the drum and Soda Crystals in the drawer.
Hello, can you use it to clean dirty blender
I heard a tip for this. After use, rinse the blender, add wash soap and water and blend for a few seconds. This helps remove residue from nooks and crannies in the blender. Once done, rinse as normal.
thank you for the great video, why cant you use crystals in a dishwasher?
No
What’s the ladies name that introduced you to zoflaraj and soda crystals
Mrs Hinch.
Why can’t you use it to wash dishes?
Is this sodium carbonate?
Yes sodium bicarbonate x
They are sodium carbonate decahydrate so similar to sodium bicarbonate but have subtle differences in use. Soda Crystals are more alkali.
Guys: waterblaster outside for the tray
I use it to kill moss on my path.
Surely you would scrape the gunk off that pan first?
Correct x
I only have 4 cleaning products - washing up liquid, salt, lemon and white vinegar - everything else is environmentally dreadful
That's amazing. Do you find they have enough cleaning power on really tough stains? I sometimes find vinegar doesn't quite cut it x
What do you use for carpet stains?
I now only use soda crystals and vinegar . I actually do the laundry with them and dont use laundry products.
I am still looking for a clean washing up liquid for the dishes ?!
This page explains the main uses for acids and alkalis. ie natural cleaning can get most of your tasks done www.dri-pak.co.uk/the-application-of-science/
@@plantplottersparadise4005 www.dri-pak.co.uk/cleaning-products/liquid-soap/
If we are promoting using soda crystals as a helpful way to carry out kitchen cleaning which helps save the environment, then equally we should be careful not to wash away the oily deposits from an oven pan down the kitchen sink ! This defeats the purpose, surely !
By pouring the boiling water after the soda crystals you will have washed them all away.
You have to use soda criticals with vinegar otherwise its not gonna do the same job.
Sorry but that's not really correct. This page explains the full story: www.dri-pak.co.uk/cleaning-plug-holes-and-drains/
I thought you were a guy with long hair! Was I wrong. You talk funny.
That's rude.
