Washing nuts are the fruit of a tree called Sapindus Mukorossi, which means "tree soap. This tree grows mainly in India and Nepal, where the nuts are harvested, dried, and then stoned to be used and marketed. Their main property contain saponin, a natural surfactant, which is released on contact with water. This will then allow detergent, among other things, to do laundry as the Indians are traditionally for centuries! Use: You should know that as the temperature, the higher the saponin is released in large quantities. It is for this reason that the nuts can be reused up to three times at 30, twice in 60 ° but only once at 90 °. Place 3 nuts (in a small bag of cotton, or failing that in a thin sock tied) by washing (medium load), used three times in a row at 30 ° or just once in 90 °. Washing nuts are what's more natural and allow for ecological washing, unlike chemical detergents. Moreover, they are 100% biodegradable.
