- Mix together a solution of cold water and a mild laundry detergent.
- Soak the affected area in the soapy solution for 10 minutes.
- Rinse the stain with cold water and inspect it for signs of glue.
- If the stain remains, apply a liberal amount of white vinegar to the area and gently rub the fabric together to loosen the glue.
- If necessary, use a soft-bristled toothbrush to work the vinegar into the fabric.
- Rinse the affected area with cold water again to remove the vinegar.
- Allow the sleepwear to air dry or put it in the dryer on a low heat setting.
