Removing Moisture

The first step to removing a mouthwash stain is to extract as much moisture as possible. Place a cloth or paper towel underneath the stained area and press gently in order to absorb liquid. Depending on the size of the stain, you may need to repeat this process several times.

Cleaning with Detergent

Once the majority of the moisture is removed, you can start cleaning the stain with detergent. Apply a few drops of detergent directly onto the stain, then use a white cloth to gently scrub the area. Keep scrubbing until the stain starts to fade away. Once finished, rinse the area with cold water.

Using Vinegar or Lemon Juice

If the detergent does not remove the stain, you can try using vinegar or lemon juice. Dilute the vinegar or lemon juice with some water and apply it directly onto the stain. Allow it to sit for a few minutes before scrubbing the area with a white cloth. This should help to remove any stubborn stains.

Using Baking Soda

You can also try using baking soda to remove mouthwash stains from flannel. Simply mix baking soda with some water and apply to the stained area. Let sit for a few minutes and then scrub the area with a white cloth until the stain has disappeared. Rinse with cold water.

Washing and Drying

Once all the stains have been removed, it's time to put the flannel shirt in the washing machine. Make sure to use a gentle cycle and cool water to preserve the material. Hang the shirt to dry in a cool, dark place. Do not place shirt in the dryer.
