Step 1: Blot the Stain
Begin by gently blotting the stain with a sponge or cloth. Use a paper towel if one is available; otherwise use a damp cloth soaked in cold water.
Step 2: Make a Soapy Solution
Mix a small amount of mild laundry detergent with cold water to create a soapy solution. Dip your sponge into the mixture, then gently dab the affected area.
Step 3: Apply Baking Soda & Lemon Juice
On top of the detergent solution, sprinkle baking soda, followed by a few drops of lemon juice. Rub the area with a damp cloth and let it sit for a few minutes.
Step 4: Rinse & Dry
Once the baking soda and lemon juice have had time to do their work, rinse the fabric with cold water. Gently pat the area dry with a clean cloth, being careful not to rub the fabric too harshly.
