Whitening sheets and clothing: Use the right amount. You need about a cup for a normal load, 1-1/4 cups for a heavy load. Don't pour bleach right onto clothes. Dilute it: 3 cups water to 1 cup bleach. Don't bother to soak items in bleach more than fifteen minutes. It's ineffective after that and may damage fibers. Some items (though usually not towels) yellow when chlorine bleach is used on them. Check the label.   thesource (378)

Warning: Don't mix bleach with ammonia, or it will create chlorine gas, which is highly poisonous, and can kill you. Things like glass-cleaning solution often contain ammonia.   thesource (378)

Countertop stains in your kitchen, or on linoleum or vinyl floors, can sometimes be removed using bleach. Soak a couple of paper towels in bleach and put them over the stains. After that, soak a couple more paper towels in water and lay them over the bleach-filled paper towels. Let the stack soak overnight so that the bleach can reach the stain and destroy it. For safety, test on a part of the surface that won't be noticed, before you clean the stain.   thesource (378)
