is borax biodegradable
If you want a dish soap with the perfect consistency and lots of suds, then this recipe is probably not for you. If, on the other hand, you are looking for something cheap, natural and biodegradable, with good cleaning power and no borax go ahead and give it a try. 1/2 cups boiling water. 3/4 cup grated bar soap. 3/4 cup liquid castile soap (high sudsing castile which is a mix of olive and castor oil is best if you want foam). 3 tablespoons washing soda (you may need more or less depending on the bar soap you use).
