Let’s be honest; laundry detergent can be expensive. Even if you ditch big-name brands for supermarket dupes, you still spend at least £2.50 every time you need to stock up. That’s where knowing how to make conker laundry detergent – AKA Mother Nature’s free detergent - can help.
Of all of the laundry detergent alternatives out there, conkers are one of the best. Popularised by the legendary Nancy Birtwhistle (GBBO legend and natural cleaning queen), conker laundry detergent may sound bizarre, but it’s both effective and affordable. In fact, conkers contain saponins- natural surfactants that have natural soapy properties (and they even help to get rid of spiders).
