Question 1

does laundry detergent get thc out?

Accepted Answer

Hard to find answer : I have looked hard to find an answer to this. The closest i came was one website that said that the detergent alone might not cut through the resin, but that the agitation of the laundry cycle may knock it out. My advice: stay away from it, especially if it is illegal in your jurisdiction and you are on parole for something already;).

Question 2

i accidently sniffed laundry detergent (washing powder)  while smelling it .. is it dangerous?

Accepted Answer

: No. As long you did not inhale the powder, it is not a cause for concern.
Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. For nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/.

Question 5

does laundry detergent kill covid-19?

Accepted Answer

: Depends on laundry detergent.  Some contain hypochlorite, a disinfectant that kills COVID-19 - if applied in high enough concentration.  But no sufficiently reliably as to “count on it”.  Virucidal (virus killing) disinfectants are available for purchase but are “strong” and need to be used carefully.

Major spread for COVId-19 is from coughing, sneezing or speaking

Question 6

what would be one of the best laundry detergents for eczema?

Accepted Answer

Dye/fragrance free: It is best to use detergents that are dye and fragrance free as these often irritate eczema and other skin conditions. Also avoid fabric softeners, especially dryer strips as they can also aggravate eczema.

Question 7

what are the best laundry detergents to use for people who have hives?

Accepted Answer

Rarely: Hives are rarely if ever caused by laundry detergent although may get a contact or irritant dermatitis from it. I often caution people about using fabric softener or anti-static strips which tend to increase the itching. For most cases of hives, oral antihistamine up to 4 doses per day would be the first choice.

Question 8

@what age can u switch laundry detergent from dreft (for babies) to a fragrance detergent?

Accepted Answer

Good question: There is the possibility that the fragrance might cause allergic reaction in the infant. Thinking outside the box i would suggest that type of detergent not be used until the infant is a teenager and their immune system has had time to develop.
