Pre soak in green sunlight soap (bricks) sometimes work, but is very hard word. Can you recommend another prewash or soak method. On the packaging it states you can use, but not which. I read about Baking soda etc. Which is effective and still enviromental safe. I would also like a solution that will not bleach or stain clothes. Is it possible to also mail this reply to my adress as I am not a constant internet surfer. Regards Hi

I guess you could add a fabric softener but the eco-balls will soften your wash anyway so perhaps a few drops of essential oil would be a cheaper option. I have been using eco wash-balls for a few years now and the drum seems not to have noticed. They do make a little bit of noise knocking around and to begin with that can be a little worrying but they do no damage. Hi Jehangir,

Can the Eco Balls be used in a hot wash cycle? 2. As I like my wash to have a mild perfume smell can I add fabric softener to the last rinse? 3. Does the ball in any way damage the washing machinr drum? Many thanks and can you send me a sample. Mr. Jehangir Wadia There are a few questionns I would like to ask.

I'll have to check out some other resources and see what else I can find. I get a lot of greasy dirt in my work clothes and am not sure if the Eco Balls will remove the odors completely. I guess I could add some sort of a natural citrus product to eliminate the offensive smell. Thanks for the info as always. I have always wondered about these but until now haven’t done much research.

It seems that they actually contain "chemicals" inside! Granted, the chemicals inside are much less toxic than those in traditional detergents, but they are chemicals nonetheless.

I'm shocked by how effective you say these balls are. I only wish you had said a little more about the technology of how they work. I'm going to have to do a little more research, but I'm sure I will at least try these out sometime soon! This sounds extremely interesting. I’m shocked by how effective you say these balls are.

But, with a soapy presoak and yes the occasional addition of liquid soap/ecover/baking soda, I find Eco wash balls good enough. Whites respond well to a cup of baking soda, but nothing can produce whites like Wipp! What's in that stuff? I think it's all about using less of the nasty stuff, but most of us don't want to let go of it altogether. Would the occasional monthly Wipp wash keep your white standard up? We're in southern Catalunya - what about you? Hi Medina,
