Master the art of natural stain removal

‍5 secrets of natural stain removal

1. Lemon Juice and Salt for Fruit and Red Wine Stains: If you spot a fresh fruit or red wine stain on your clothing, don't panic! Just squeeze lemon juice onto the stain and sprinkle some salt. Let the mixture sit and then wash the garment as usual.

2. Baking Soda for Oil and Grease Stains: Oil and grease stains can be stubborn, but baking soda is a real lifesaver. Generously sprinkle baking soda on the stain, let it sit for a while, and then brush it off before washing the garment as usual.

3. Vinegar and Water for Deodorant Stains: Deodorant stains are annoying, but you can easily remove them with a mixture of vinegar and water. Soak the stain, let the mixture work its magic, and then wash the garment.

4. Gall Soap for Tough Stains: For particularly tough stains like grass or blood, gall soap is an invaluable helper. Apply the soap to the stain, let it sit, and then wash the garment. You'll be amazed at how well it works!

5. Soapnuts: An eco-friendly alternative to conventional detergents is soapnuts. These small, brown fruits contain natural saponins that effectively remove dirt and stains. Just place some soapnuts in a fabric bag and toss them into the washing machine. They are gentle on the environment, biodegradable, and can be reused multiple times. A sustainable option for your laundry care!
