Quick Answer
Use about one tablespoon of doTERRA On Guard Laundry Detergent for a standard load, pretreat tough stains with a small amount directly on the fabric, and always follow the care label for best results.
Why Ultra-Concentrated Means Less Is More
Because doTERRA On Guard Laundry Detergent is ultra-concentrated, a little goes a long way. Using too much can leave residue on clothes and in your machine, so measuring is key. Start with one tablespoon for a regular load and adjust only if your water is very hard or your clothes are heavily soiled.
Understanding Bio-Originated Enzymes
The bio-originated enzymes in this detergent work to lift and remove dirt and grime. For this to work well, give the detergent time to interact with stains. Avoid overloading the washer, which can reduce enzyme effectiveness and leave clothes less clean.
Steps to Use doTERRA On Guard Laundry Detergent
- Check the care label: Before washing, read the garment's care label to confirm it can be machine washed and note the recommended water temperature. Skipping this can damage delicate fabrics.
- Measure the detergent: For a standard load, use one tablespoon of doTERRA On Guard Laundry Detergent. For larger or heavily soiled loads, use up to two tablespoons. More detergent does not mean cleaner clothes; it can leave residue.
- Add detergent to the machine: Pour the measured detergent into the dispenser or directly into the drum before adding clothes, following your machine's instructions. Adding detergent after clothes can cause spotting.
- Pretreat tough stains: Apply a small amount of detergent directly to stains like grease or grass, gently rub, and let sit for 5–10 minutes before washing. Do not let the detergent dry on the fabric.
- Wash and dry: Select the appropriate cycle and water temperature. After washing, dry as recommended on the care label. High heat can set any remaining stain.
