What You Will Need
- Vinegar
- Baking soda
- Cold water
- Washing machine
Step 1: Blot Stain
The first step to cleaning pet stains is to blot the stain as soon as you notice it. Use a paper towel or cloth and press down on the stain to absorb as much liquid as possible.
Step 2: Mix Cleaning Solution
Once you have blotted the stain, mix a solution of ½ cup white vinegar, ¼ cup baking soda, and 2 cups cold water in a bowl. Make sure to stir the solution until the baking soda is dissolved.
Step 3: Apply Solution to Stain
Using a clean cloth or sponge, apply the solution to the stained area of the sleep shirt. Make sure to work the solution into the fabric so that it can get deep into the fibers. Let the solution sit on the fabric for 10 minutes before proceeding to the next step.
Step 4: Rinse and Wash
After the solution has had a chance to penetrate the fabric, rinse the spot with cold water. Once the stain has been completely rinsed, place shirt in the washing machine and wash according to the fabric’s care instructions.
Step 5: Dry and Check
Once the shirt is done washing, dry it according to the fabric’s care instructions. Once the shirt is dry, check the stain to see if it is gone. If stain is still visible, repeat steps 1-4 until stain is removed.
Conclusion:
Cleaning pet stains from sleep shirts can be a challenge, but it is definitely possible. With right technique and cleaning supplies, you can easily get rid of any pet stains on a sleep shirt.
