10 Best Laundry Detergent For Bed Bugs (2022 Updated)

I have used Eucalan for years. It is an excellent product and makes washing woolen garments very simple, since you don’t have to rinse. Time does the work, not energy. Before I put our woolens away for the summer, I wash them in a top loading washing machine, full loads, fill the machine with water and put in the appropriate amount of Eucalan.

Let it agitate for a moment to stir in the Eucalan. Then add the garments, pushing them down until they are saturated and not floating. Leave them for an hour or so. Then with the machine open so it does not agitate, set it to spin.

Let it spin, take the garments out and lay them out to dry as appropriate.

As a relatively new “spinner” (wool, not exercise bikes) I’ve been using this not only for washing raw fleece in order not to remove the oils before carding and spinning, and then for washing my skeins once spun – but also for washing woollen clothing items in general.

Just add a small amount to lukewarm water, put in the item and leave to soak for a short while. Then – NO RINSING NEEDED! Just put in the spin drier and leave to dry. So simple – and the woolly things remains soft and supple with a delightful fragrance.

This is the product I use to wash all my hand knitted and crocheted items, including prior to blocking. The gentle formula, cleans the fibers and the lanolin softens. The best part is, no rinsing! This means less wear on the fibers.

I appreciate the unscented formula, as my family has. sensitive skin.

This gentle soap solution is made for washing woolens but I also use it for soaking my feet and washing delicates. There is no need for rinsing, either. For Woolen sweaters and blankets, it really simple, just fill your washer up to what ever level covers the items.

Use lukewarm/cool water. Pour the soap into the water and swish around with your hand. Place your washables into the water and push them down, then kind of agitate a little with your hand. That’s it! Let the items just sit in the water for 15 or 20 minutes.

Don’t turn the washer on. After the 15 or 20 minutes turn on the spin cycle to draw the water out. NOT THE RINSE CYCLE. Your items should be nice and drained of any water, then simply lay out or hang to dry the rest of the way.

There usually isn’t much water left in the sweaters or blankets.

This is the only product I trust to restore these collectable wool blankets. I can’t recommend this formula enough as I have treated dozens of vintage and antique point blankets with Eucalan and they all turn out great.

Many are like new again. The lanolin acts as a natural conditioner that keeps fibers clean and soft while reducing static. The relaxed wool is much easier to work with after the wash, It’s amazing! Some of these blankets can be over 100 years old and have dry felted nap.

After using a teasel brush, the loft and softness returns and these blankets are ready for another 100 years of hard outdoor use! They will also shed rain water like a ducks backside after this. A huge plus for keeping you dry and warm.

Thanks!.

While in the past I have been more than satisfied with your product and services, I am not pleased with the last delivery. I sent a private message to you concerning the product and packaging of my latest delivery.

The box was too big for the product and the packing was deflated. One bottle was broken so that it leaked all over the box. Another bottle was broken but didn’t leak. I have heard nothing back. I would really like the broken bottle replaced.

And, yes, I took pictures.

I went to New Orlean in October of last year. I did not realize I had bugs until about April. I have been fighting these things using your product and suggestions. This is July. I have moved to another state.

We destroyed our bed and seem to be spraying, washing, drying or whatever we can do. I am allergic to the bites and have been to the doctor for antihistamines and anti itch cream. I use your products hoping that this fight will end soon.

Its exhausting. Yhe reason I use your product is because you say it’s not harmful to humans. All I do is spray and wash and dry and put into the sun. No one in my family has the allergy like I do. I do not know what else to say.

Thank you for keeping them at bay.

I think it works ok. Even after washing my sheets, I still have bed bugs and spraying for 10 days straight; still have bedbugs. I need those 3 gallons I just bought so I can keep spraying. I think I’m beginning to see them downstairs now as well.

It smells amazing! Maybe a bit strongly scented though if you are sensitive to smells. Seemed to clean fine so it definitely does its job. However I am either allergic or sensitive to it. I do have sensitive skin and sinuses so I did one load to test out.

It’s not terrible but if I contuned wearing the clothes washed in the detergent it would have likely got worse. My throat is scratchy, headache, eyes itchy, nose kinda stuffy and skin irritated. I’m super disappointed because I was excited for this product and have loved other Mrs.

Meyer’s products. Again this is just me and I am super sensitive to detergents and anything that has fragrance or goes on skin so most people I’d imagine would be fine.

Tried a new one cuz target stopped caring the NBD one I loved. Please do your own research as well but in my opinion do not buy this. This detergent contains 2 preservatives that are can be extremely toxic and a major skin irritant.

I washed a few loads of laundry and my sheets and felt like my skin was on fire. Returned and rewashed all of it with a different detergent. The worst part is my clothing that has any kind of stretchy fabric is completely ruined.

I don’t know if it’s the essential oils that make it impossible to wash out completely but I’ve had to get rid of quite a few yoga pants and about a dozen undies.

I really love this laundry detergent. It has a pleasant lavender smell that doesn’t make me start coughing like the heavily scented detergents. Clothes always come out clean and usually smell delightfully like lavender for a period of time.

I’ve purchased three containers of this from Walmart so far; two arrived in perfect condition, the most recent purchase arrived absolutely covered in detergent due to the lid not having been secured tightly at all and the bottle was lying on its side and rolling around in the shipping box.

I give the product five stars. Walmart gets four stars for their ability to ship items and have them arrive in decent condition.

am a member of Seventh Generation’s Generation Good Advocates community I received free sample and coupon! Seventh Generation Powered By Plants lavender laundry detergent. First off I love that there is 0% synthetic fragrances, dies or artificial brighteners.

Absolutely love the scent of the detergent and really did a great job cleaning my clothes! Also brighten my whites and got out tough stains. 100% biodegradable ingredients will help save a great Mother Earth! I’ve already started recommending to family and friends!.

Thanks to Seventh Generation’s Generation Good, I received Seventh Generation Lavender Laundry Detergent, complimentary, in exchange for my honest review. The following opinions are 100% authentic and my own.

Seventh Generation makes effective, long lasting household products that are 100% biodegradable, plant based, and safe for everyone in my family, even the youngest or those with sensitivity conerns. This Lavender Laundry Detergent is among their incredible products! Typically, I don’t totally love lavender fragranced products, but Seventh Generation’s lavender is subtle and light, but still packs the punch to keep that “fresh out of the wash” kinda smell for days after.

It’s also effective in removing stains, spots, and those pesky long lasting odors from my little ones’ athletic attire.

This detergent is one of the ONLY two laundry detergents i ever want to buy ever again. I have eczema that got crazy worseafter moving to Italy with very hard water. On top of that i had a lot of allergic reactions to things recently and we had tried a few different products that claimed to be “free and clear” that helped, but not completely and it wasn’t until I did some proper research myself that I figured out why.

It’s because many of those products that claim to be free of all these things still have the WORST ingredient in them; FRAGRANCE. That’s a known cancer causing ingredient btw and the chemicals that makeup the word fragrance are not regulated and you never know what each company uses to make that said fragrance.

What the heck right? Thank you to #thinkdirty and #ewg for being a resource to help me know what’s in my stuff! Think dirty take the credit here. This detergent runs a 2/10 on their toxicity scale and if you didn’t know, anything under a 3 is considered safe and non-toxic.

This is the lowest rated detergent I have found yet! Let me tell you, when I say this stuff worked I mean it made a WORLD of difference for my skin. And it doesn’t smell like something slightly weird it just smells like nothing, but it removes and stains or smells I have encountered with my laundry.

This is one I have no problem sharing because I want everyone to know their products and know what they can truly trust not just by what the bottle says, but by real experience from real people.

I’ve been using this detergent (this one is new, so mostly grapefruit one) for over 10 years now. Started because of cloth diapers and never stopped lol. Biokleen has changed formula several times over the years and if you want the most effective detergent then Enzymes and Oxy Bleach is the closest to the original one IMO but you’ll have to pay extra.

Well, with the inflation they had to either raise price or change the formula. I wish I also had the option with just enzymes. But overall, it’s the cheapest detergent I found that is plant based and effective.

I alternate laundry boosters (soda, oxy, borax, just detergent) and never needed stripping. For those complaining about clothes not being clean my advice is to strip them. Other detergents mask the smell with chemicals, this one does not, so if your clothes don’t smell clean look up stripping, it’s gross but it either that or continue using perfumes to fool yourselves.

I have chemical sensitivities and can assure you this detergent is a truly “green” one, no chemical perfumes, no rashes. To add some natural smell to clothes I add lavender essential oil to wool dryer balls and enjoy my clean laundry :-).

I’m so disheartened these days that I had to go through pages and pages of varying websites to find a laundry detergent that comes in a box instead of a plastic bag or bottle. They used to all do that when I was a kid.

Now that we know how bad plastic is for our environment and it’s almost impossible to find one that comes in a box! So I bought this one and opened up the box and there was a plastic bag inside! For crying out loud ~ ! Anyhow the soap itself is just what I like.

Works well and is not harmful for me or my septic tank. But please don’t wrap it in plastic. Plus Vitacost now wraps everything in plastic so of course that’s something I’m trying to get them to change too.

I have been using Biokleen for over a year now and it works great. It’s concentrated, so you really only need a small scoopful for a large load, and the clothes smell so clean and fresh coming out of the washer.

We live in a warm climate year round, and my husband and his teenage son do construction work, but even their sweaty, dirty work clothes smell great after being washed with Biokleen. I’ve been trying to reduce the amount of plastic packaging I buy, and this powder comes in a thin plastic bag inside a cardboard box, which is so much better than the indestructible plastic bottles for liquid detergent.

Bottom line, good price, powder concentrate lasts a long time, clothes smell clean and fresh, and minimal plastic packaging.

Finding the right blade is important when hunting. A bowie type knife is too large. A pocket knife too small. This knife has the correct blade height, length, point, and sharpness. The handle has a good grip to it.

With a good blade, such as this, one can skin a deer, clean a fish, and even gut a bear. It’s light, small, and handy. A knife like this can do many chores. I own two of these!.

I use this product to decontaminate environmental equipment. It is expensive but you need very little because it is really concentrated.

this is my second one and have not been let down yet with the performance I have small hands and this works just great the knurl at the tip keeps it from slipping out of your hand My one let down is the leather sheath.

It seems that it was designed for a cheaper blade. It’s just not what I expected from this company. I might see if I can find another sheath for it. Overall I rate this knife as a good quality and very sharp.

Refreshing Lavender was the key to the attraction and allurement of the ladies! There is no other scent that grabbed attention as this scent. I would see commercials of people putting their recently washed clothes to their face, inhaling deeply and smiling.

I used to say, “That’s DUMB! No one does that!” I started doing that! All the time! Before putting on any item of clothing! I have not experienced that until I started doing laundry with this product! My nostrils have been deprived of a sweet-smelling fragrance.

I have enjoy doing laundry ever since I began using this detergent earlier this year. FOR THE LOVE OF ALL WHO HAVE HAD THIS EXPERIENCE. PLEEEEEAAASSSSEEEE BRING BACK LAVENDAR AND LILY!.

I also love the lavender and lily scent. I was hoping I could keep this golden nugget to myself but I see a lot of people caught on to this scent. Now it cannot stay on the shelves. All of the Walmarts in and around my surrounding “STATES” ( you see I didn’t say counties) (yeah….

It’s that serious with me) are ALL OUT. This is the ONLY laundry detergent I use and I’m actually down to my last bottle and if they do not make more available soon, I don’t know what I’m going to do about my laundry….

I guess buy new ones! PLEASE HURRY AND MAKE MORE… DO YOU NEED HELP IN THR FACTORY? Tell me where and I’ll come help you out. Oh…. and please make this available in more stores like Bjs, Dams club, Costco, Target and IN A BIGGER SIZE!!!!!!!.

This is my new regular detergent! I’ve been using G**n laundry detergent for years with Oxi on the side only to whiten my whites. When I saw this new OxiClean brand detergent, I had to try it for my usual loads.

So glad I gave it a chance! I used to have to add in vinegar and soak a bit to fight odors in work clothes and towels. Well, this stuff gets odors out the FIRST wash with no soaking. As for whitening, I may still use my regular Oxi for that, but THIS is now our detergent.

So nice to get true freshness in a first and only wash!.

I sampled Persil ProClean Deep Clean Pods for free in exchange for reviewing the product for Sampler. Persil ProClean pods were easy to use and the directions were simple to follow. My clothes came out very clean and fresh after using the Persil pods to do my laundry.

The fact that I didn’t break out in a rash after using the product shows that Persil is good to use on clothes for those with sensitive skin issues like myself. While I definitely would use Persil again or recommend it to others, my current laundry detergent pods get my clothes clean just as well as Persil.

Persil wasn’t any better or cleaner than the laundry cleaner I use. Since I’ve used it for years, I’ll probably stay loyal to my current detergent brand. If Persil added anything to make it better than my brand later, I might reconsider.

In a pinch, if I couldn’t find my brand, I would buy Persil and use it. It is as good as my brand. It just isn’t any better, which is why I can’t see switching laundry brands at this time. Persil also seems to be priced a little bit higher than my current brand as well.

Overall, I think Persil does a good job cleaning clothes and is good for those with sensitive skin. I recommend it along with my favorite brand, which I will leave unnamed.

I give Persil ProClean Laundry detergent discs 5 stars. I received one sample and it claims to have an active scent boost with fresh release technology. I typically use downy unstoppables booster beads with my laundry because I feel like the scent never lasts more than a few days on my clean laundry and Unstoppables allow that clean laundry scent to last 1-2 weeks.

Well, the same can be said for Persil ProClean Laundry Discs. I did a cold wash of colored clothing, without any other products. The clothes came out clean with no noticeable fiber fading and smelled great.

I waited about 14 days before I grabbed a shirt I washed with Persil Discs to see if it still smelled like it just came out of the laundry and it did!! Persil ProClean Discs are supposed to keep clothes smelling fresh for 100 days but I couldn’t wait that long! I now have a new favorite detergent and I won’t have to use Unstoppables or tons of fabric softener dryer sheets to have clean smelling clothes! I can buy a 2 pack/76 pods for $26.

99 on Amazon, which is more expensive than Tide Pods, but I don’t have to use additional products like I do with Tide Pods (Downy Unstoppables). Definitely recommend and will consider switching laundry detergent.

These Persil Deep Cleaning Laundry Discs impressed the heck out of me! They made our laundry smell so unbelievably fresh and clean! I’ve always struggled with getting the smells out of my teenage boys shirts, especially the armpits, but these Persil Discs worked amazingly well! I’m a die hard Tide fan and buyer! They have always been the only brand I’ve tried that could clean all the stains off our cloths and make them smell fresh! After trying these Persil Laundry Discs I’m hooked!! I couldn’t believe how well it worked ! Also how easy the little discs were to use! The pre-measured perfectly filled discs make it so easy to do a load of laundry even for my boys! They’ve always struggled with putting too much or too little detergent in! With these they just need to throw the little disc in the wash and it’s set! And doesn’t need anything added to the load because the detergent takes ALL the smells out! Yes even the ones from teenage boys! I’ve already ordered a 40 pac of the discs because I loved them so much!! Thanks for turning me on to the Persil brand and these discs! I can’t wait to tell all my Mama friends and family!!.

This is my go-to laundry detergent for most things because it has safe ingredients for my septic system, is economical, and works well. I’ve found it must be thoroughly dissolved when used for dark colors, however.

It does not produce foam, and works with a surprisingly small amount, making it very economical. As with most detergents, pre-treating for stains and strong odors helps, but I’ve been surprised how clean things get when I don’t pre-treat.

This detergent contains enzymes, which seems to be an important factor in how well it works.

biokleen powder laundry detergent is hands down one of the best we’ve used and we plan on using it as long as it’s available. We have a lot of dirty farm clothes weekly and ‘biokleen’ gets the grease and dirt out quite well, heavily soiled we wash in hot water and this detergent works great! Two appliance repair persons have told us (over the years) powder laundry detergent is better for the washer than any liquid detergent.

We’re thankful ‘biokleen’ is part of our cleaning supplies.
