5 Surprising Uses for Dishwasher Pods Around the House
Clean Your Washing Machine
Run an empty cycle with a dishwasher pod inside to help remove soap scum, odors, and buildup from your washing machine drum and detergent dispenser.

Unclog Drains
Drop a pod into a clogged or slow drain and run hot water. The enzymes and detergents can help break down grease and grime blocking your pipes.

Remove Stains from Outdoor Surfaces
Use a dissolved dishwasher pod in warm water to scrub grime off patio furniture, garden tools, or even car tires. Just rinse well afterward!

Clean the Garbage Disposal
Run your garbage disposal while dropping a dishwasher pod into it. The pod’s ingredients help deodorize and remove food residue buildup.

Brighten Your Grout and Tiles
Make a paste from a crushed dishwasher pod and water, apply to grout or tiled surfaces, scrub gently, and rinse clean to brighten dull or stained areas.

Note: Always wear gloves when handling dishwasher pods and avoid using them on delicate or porous surfaces to prevent damage.
