product containing enzymes. If that doesn't work, try an all-purpose stain
remover and launder normally.

requires a two-step process. Dilute 1 tablespoon of ammonia in 1 cup of water,
and use it to treat the area. Remember to dab the mixture in a small area first
to make sure the garment is colorfast. Use a stain-removal product, such as
Shout, and launder normally.

For baby oil: Use a prewash stain
remover. After checking the care instructions, wash in the hottest water that
is safe for the garment.

For fruits and vegetables: Three methods
can be effective at removing these stains. Rinse the stain in cool water. Or
place the garment in a 1-to-1 combination of rubbing alcohol and water, and
wash normally. The third option is to use a prewash stain remover, followed by
laundering, for more stubborn stains.

or ammonia. The combination creates toxic fumes that can be hazardous to you
