The Most Important Ingredient in Tide® is Safety

After each use, completely close the container, and immediately store the container out of reach of children in an appropriate location.

Keep laundry pacs out of reach of children.

Tide The Tide Team 09/14/2018

We're here to help, Preson! While we did change our formula in 2017 to ensure that our PODS™ give the best clean ever, they should still dissolve and leave your clothes spotless like before. Please always make sure that you're putting your PODS™ in the drum of the washer before adding your clothes and make sure to leave enough space so that the PODS™ are exposed to water for the proper amount of time! If you find any residue, simply soak the affected garment overnight and then rewash it with no detergent on the hottest cycle recommended by its care tag. If you have any questions, always feel free to give us a call at (800) 879-8433.
