How to get white socks white ?!

[mrssunshinexxx]

Pleaseee can someone tell me something that will definitely work. Children’s socks getting stained and discoloured with mud / sand general grub . They have to wear white for school.

Soak in napisan for a couple of hours

I wash whites separately with bio
powder at 60, I use a Glowhite sachet and I spray Pink Stuff stain remover on the bottom of socks. They come out gleaming white!

Bio detergent, 40 degrees, laundry bleach, wash whites separately.

@GobletOfIre sorry what’s laundry bleach?

thanks all will definitely be trying these

We wash whites separately with oxy white stuff.

By the end of a term they look grubby though. I usually buy new sets for the summer term which can then be hidden in the winter under trousers!

Mum of two now adult boys here. Honestly, buy cheap white socks and chuck them when they go grey.

Over the years I have tried everything. Powders, whiteners, boosters, soaking in this, that and the other. Nothing really works. When you consider the cost of all of these products plus the electricity and hot water used not to mention all those chemicals going into the water, I think it is actually financially and environmentally cheaper to recycle them and buy new.
