Borax
Sodium Tetraborate
From homemade detergents to ant killer, Borax (also known as sodium tetraborate) has become a staple for the do-it-yourselfer interested in finding their own all-natural solutions to everyday obstacles. We are now able to offer to our loyal customers the highest quality Borax at prices only available at Bulk Apothecary!
Dissolve Borax and sugar into some boiling water to make an effective ant killer that takes advantage of Borax’s ability to completely dissolve in water. The web is full of recipes for making your own dishwasher detergent, laundry detergent/laundry detergent booster as well as other niche applications for Borax that you would never think of.
Borax was first widely available when hauled out of the dry lake beds of Nevada and California by a large team of mules, thus making it cheap and plentiful enough to be widely available for use. Try mixing 1 tablespoon of Borax with 1 tablespoon of baking soda and placing in your dishwasher’s detergent compartment. The mild abrasiveness of both ingredients will blast away tough deposits on your dishes and save you money. Borax is one of the most commonly used ingredients in detergents used in the detergent manufacturing industry today. Experiment and find an online recipe for making your own laundry detergent that will soften and clean clothes as well as the expensive store bought brands. Mix with lemon juice to create a safe, inexpensive rust remover.
Want an extremely effective window cleaner? Try mixing Borax with ammonia and water and take advantage of Borax’s mild abrasiveness to clean windows to a sparkling shine. Drop 3 tablespoons into your garbage disposal and let it set for 15 minutes to deodorize and clean. Simply mix with warm water and use to rinse out the inside of your refrigerator to remove musty/moldy smells. Soak candle wicks in a mixture of Borax, salt and water to reduce smoke and ash in your homemade candle creations.

Don’t be fooled into paying more by outrageous claims about anyone else’s product. Our mission is to deliver wholesale prices directly to you (the consumer) which sets us apart from the competition.

Great for laundry
This is my second time purchasing. It works well at a good price. I love being able to order online and pick it up in person. Customer pick up was even better this time as they had a desk and a very kind woman in the back area and I had the opportunity to purchase some overstocked items at a discount. Will be back to replenish as needed.

Great for growing Borax crystals!
Great quality Borax. I am an artist who uses it for growing clear borax crystals onto sculptures. I have a much better consistency with this product than I do buying box after box of name brand Borax in the grocery store and the price can't be beat!

Great for laundry
I like this borax better than the 20 mule team brand you can get at Target. The the grains are just the right size and all the same size - not so big that they don't disolve quickly, but not so fine that there is borax 'dust' everywhere. Will continue to purchase indefinitely.
