Sorry to be ignorant, but need to know.
Is there a difference between Borax and 20 Mule Team Borax?
I am in Canada, and at the grocery store did see the Borax in the cleaning supply isle. Other farmgirls are talking about the 20 MTB, and I am left wondering....
If there is a difference, could someone please tell me what they are?
Thanks,
MJ

EmmJay, I believe Boraxo is the brand name for a product made of Borax. 20 Mule Team borax is 100% borax and not harmful to washing machines or septic tankes and contains no phosphorus. It is safe. Go www.dialcorp.com they are now the owners of 20 mule team. NB

yes, it's one in the same.Been around since 1891 & in my opinion it's the best thing out there. There will be a covered wagon on the box being pulled by mules inbetween the name.
