Terra Wash+Mg is the laundry revolution from Japan! Terra Wash+Mg is a green, organic and eco-friendly laundry detergent replacement that is skin and fabric friendly as well as economical in use.
Terra Wash+Mg is a magnesium laundry sachet that is filled with magnesium pellets which are highly purified, 99.95% purity, and specially processed with Japanese innovative technology. When this special form of magnesium comes in contact with water, it generates bubbles of hydrogen and forms ionized alkaline water, which makes it easier for water to remove dirt from fabrics.

Will Terra Wash+Mg remove dirt?Yes, the test result shows Terra Wash+Mg is as effective as detergent in decomposing dirt.
Will Terra Wash+Mg remove very strong stains or whiten clothes?No. Because Terra Wash+Mg does not contain any chemical bleaching or brightening agent unlike regular detergent, for tough stains, it is recommended to do some partial wash or apply stain remover on the areas before wash, especially for white cloths. Alternatively, use sodium percarbonate together with Terra Wash+Mg, which can compensate whitening & strong stain removal power to Terra Wash. Sodium percarbonate is economical & eco-friendly solution that are used as main ingredient for many eco-friendly bleaches and can be found in most online stores.  
Will Terra Wash+Mg remove odor?Yes, the test result shows Terra Wash+Mg is about 10 times stronger in removing odor components than regular detergent.
How does laundry smell after washing with Terra Wash+Mg?Terra Wash+Mg does not contain any fragrance agents, so laundry will be fragrance free with fresh scent.
Does Terra Wash+Mg work without any suds?Yes, it works without any suds.
Does Terra Wash+Mg need rinse cycle?No, since Terra Wash+Mg doesn’t create suds(bubbles) and doesn’t leave any chemical or soap residues, you can save rinse cycle so to save water.
Can Terra Wash+Mg be used in drying cycle?Leaving Terra Wash + Mg inside a machine during drying cycle will not cause any problems or affect cleaning property, but we recommend to remove Terra Wash+Mg before drying cycle because it may damage a nylon bag faster than not doing so.
If I accidentally forget to remove Terra Wash+Mg before drying cycle, will it affect cleaning property or damage the product?No, it will not affect Terra Wash+Mg ‘s cleaning property and it will not damage the product. However, since leaving Terra Wash+Mg inside a washing machine during drying cycle may damage a nylon bag faster than not doing so, we recommend to remove Terra Wash+Mg before drying cycle.
I often forget to take out Terra Wash+Mg and leave it in a washing machine all day or overnight.  Will it damage a laundry machine or affect Terra Wash+Mg’s cleaning property?No, it will not damage a laundry machine. However, leaving Terra Wash+Mg in wet place like in a washing machine for long hours when not in use may facilitate unnecessary oxidation, which may shorten the product life cycle and lower product performance, so make sure everytime to air dry after use.
Can I use Terra Wash+Mg three times a day or can it be used consecutively?Yes, you can and you can use Terra Wash+Mg consecutively. The effects are same even if you use Terra Wash+Mg more than three times a day or consecutively.
Can I use bleach with Terra Wash+Mg?Yes, you can. However, DO NOT USE chlorine-based bleach. Oxygen-type bleach should work well with Terra Wash+Mg.
Can I use softener with Terra Wash+Mg?Yes, you can. However, fragrance may possibly be weaken due to Terra Wash+Mg’s strong power to remove odor.
Can I use detergent or soap with Terra Wash+Mg?Although it is unnecessary to use detergent and we recommend not to use detergent or soap with Terra Wash+Mg for environmental purposes, you may do so without any problem. When using detergent with Terra Wash+Mg, you may just reduce the usage amount of detergent or soap in half or less so to satisfy your desire for detergent while being better for environment. However, DO NOT USE chlorine-based detergent.
Can Terra Wash+Mg be used in hot/cold water?Yes, it can be used in both hot and cold water. Hot water may be better in cleaning property, but cold water is surely better for environment.
Can Terra Wash+Mg be used in hard/soft water?Yes, it works effectively in both hard and soft water.
Can I use Terra Wash+Mg in HE, front-loading or top-loading washing machines?Yes, you can. It works in these types of washing machine.
Will Terra Wash+Mg damage the drum or sensors in HE washing machines?No, it will not. Terra Wash+Mg withstands high-speed spin cycles and it is safe to use in HE washing machines.
Will water used in washing cycle with Terra Wash+Mg affect septic system?No, it will not. Because Terra Wash+Mg leaves zero trace of chemicals without suds and soap residues, water used in washing cycle with Terra Wash+Mg is perfect for septic system. In addition, we recommend to use water used in washing cycle with Terra Wash+Mg for farming if possible because magnesium contained in used water should help crops to grow healthier.
How long it takes for Terra Wash+Mg to raise pH level of water to around 10.5?About 5 to 10 minutes depending on the amount of water used by a washing machine. Less water leads to faster raise in pH level.
Will water’s pH level decline as Terra Wash+Mg being used more?No, there is practically no change in pH level.
Because Terra Wash+Mg is also effective in cleaning a washing machine itself by removing mold, will mold mix into laundry?Because Terra Wash+Mg removes, not melts, mold, peeled and shredded mold may possibly mix into laundry. We recommend to prewash your washing machine with Terra Wash+Mg so to clean out your washing machine prior to your first laundry.
(How to prewash your washing machine)
1, Place Terra Wash+Mg into washing machine and run through a complete cycle.
2, If you still see grime on washing machine, please fill water and pour 1 cup of baking soda and soak it for 1 hour.
Can I use Terra Wash+Mg in public launderette?Yes, you surely can, but please be aware that laundry machines in public launderette may be very moldy due to heavy use and Terra Wash+Mg’s power to clean out a washing machine may cause mold to be mixed into your laundry.
Will Terra Wash+Mg damage my clothing?No, it will not. It is 100% free of toxic and synthetic chemicals and protects fabrics by preserving fibers and colors, resulting in soft finish. It is a perfect match for organic cotton.
Can Terra Wash+Mg be used for delicate fabrics?Yes, it can be. However, hand wash may be more suitable than machine wash for delicate fabrics like silk and wool in keeping shape.
Will Terra Wash+Mg retain cloth color?Yes, it will, because Terra Wash+Mg does not contain any bleaching agents.
How will I know when to replace old Terra Wash+Mg with new one?Simply measure the weight of the product. If the weight is about 70 – 80g(2.5 – 2.8oz), it’s about time to purchase a new one. The product starts from approx.125g(4.5oz) and the weight decreases as magnesium gradually dissolves during washing. Although the product continues to work with less than 70-80g, power may be weaker because the amount of magnesium influences the strength of cleaning.
What should I do with Terra Wash+Mg after 365 washes?You can use the old product together with new one since more magnesium results in stronger cleaning power. Otherwise, you can also plant magnesium packed inside Terra Wash + Mg in your garden or planter so to return magnesium back to earth and make rich soil.
Is Terra Wash+Mg 100% natural?Yes, Terra Wash+Mg does not contain any synthetic chemicals. Many detergents so called “Natural” sold in the market actually contain synthetic surfactant and are filled with too many ingredients’ name on the products’ label which people are not sure of.
Can people with sensitive skin or skin disorders use Terra Wash+Mg?Yes, surely they can. Terra Wash+Mg is 100% free of toxic and synthetic chemicals and is perfect for people with sensitive skin or skin disorders.
Does magnesium have risk of fire?No, magnesium will not burn under 600℃(Celsius) or 1,112℉(Fahrenheit).
Many claims regarding products’ effectiveness are found in websites or Wikipedia on some laundry balls sold in the market which are filled with ceramic.  Is Terra Wash+Mg same as these products?No, Terra Wash+Mg is completely different from those products. Terra Wash+Mg is filled with highly purified magnesium, not ceramic and Terra Wash+Mg’s effectiveness is backed up by test results from reliable independent test labs in Japan.
After using Terra Wash+Mg for a while, I feel the power of washing is little weaker or not working anymore.  What could be the possible reasons?First, measure the weight of your Terra Wash+Mg and make sure it has more than 70 - 80g(2.5 - 2.8oz). If it is less than the amount, then, it is the time to replace to new one.  If it is more than the amount and you feel like it is not working properly, surface of magnesium pellets may be little oxidized than average. To remove oxide film, prepare a bowl of white vinegar that you can find in the kitchen and soak Terra Wash+Mg (the whole sachet) for about 5 minutes. After soaking, rinse off vinegar from Terra Wash+Mg by using water. (Vinegar leftover will facilitate magnesium consumption, so please rinse off very well.) It is now ready to be used again.  Moreover, leaving Terra Wash+Mg in wet place like in washing machine for long hours when not in use will also facilitate unnecessary oxidation, please make sure everytime to air dry after use.

I’ve only been using this for a couple of weeks, but so far so good. I like the idea that it’s environmentally sound which is the main reason I bought it. I’m pleased that the laundry comes out clean, including whites. And it’s an incredible price! Also bought one for my daughter who’s also pleased with it

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and what a super review. Thrilled to hear it's been so great for you both - VH
This is my second purchase . I love this product - washes really well - no fuss. Also, I dry the clothes in the dryer and they come out really soft even though I do not use fabric softner.

Thank you for your brilliant review and for taking the time to share your feedback. We're so pleased it's been such a success. - VH
I wish I had know about this years ago. It saves me money, time shopping for laundry products that are in plastic bottles and storage space. For any stains I add a tablespoon of soda crystals to the laundry drawer, this is successful even with a 30* wash.

This product is wonderful - it has transformed how I process my laundry - no fuss - no mess - clothes come out clean and fresh - I use a dryer to dry my clothes and they come out of the dryer really soft (I do not use fabric softner or dryer sheets). Happy to recommend to family & friends.

Thank you for your lovely review and we're thrilled to hear you are happy with this product. – VH
I have used these for four years now and find them wonderful. Just throw the bag in with the washing and they work. Good for the environment too. I have skin allergies and absolutely no adverse effects for these. So pleased Victoria Health have them available at a respectable price.

My hesitation about ordering this product was the level of freshness it would produce. I have now done two washes using the pouch, which both came out smelling fresh (it removed coffee stains). You don't get the same fragrance as from conventional washing liquid/tabs, but that's to be expected. I like the pouch - it's so simple and green (and great for travel). I'll be sticking with it!

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and review. We're delighted to learn that is working so well for you. - VH
I’ve only used this three times and am still sniffing for any sweaty smells from my two sons clothes but seems to be working as promised. I did throw in an extra cap of oxygen bleach with the dogs blanket also , just to be sure. I have five adults in my household so never ending washing but I will weigh the terrawash bag in about three months , it weighed nearly 130 g when I got it . So far great !
