Well, folks – it’s your lucky day. Because I’m going to give you a tip that will change your laundry routine forever. Most detergent lids have a note printed in tiny letters on the bottom of the lid. This note indicates that you can wash it with soap and water to remove the detergent residue, or just throw it in the washing machine with the rest of your clothes when you’re done using it. Yes, I have never known this either!

While this is pretty innovative laundry news, you probably won’t want to pop the cap in the washer every time you load it, as it can damage the plastic and wear it out faster, according to Mama’s Laundry Talk. But feel free to pop it in the washer every three washes or so, and you’ll get a much cleaner detergent cap. Who would have thought?
