The parent who calls herself @Tsagana on was amazed to learn that a combination of household items could help get her bed looking and like brand new again. She urged others to try her hack which uses the washing machine powder, two tablespoons of baking powder, three, one tablespoon of toothpaste and four tablespoons of hydrogen peroxide. Tsagna is seen in the video adding the household items into a bowl before she soaks a towel in the ingredients and wrings it out. She is then seen wrapping the towel round which she secures before rubbing on the stained areas of the mattress.
