Use paper towels to blot the stain, rather than rubbing. Rubbing can drive the stain further into the fabric.
Mix equal parts white vinegar and liquid detergent. Using a spoon or your finger, apply the mixture to the stain.
Using a soft-bristled brush, gently scrub the mixture into the stained area. This will help lift the stain from the fabric.
Rinse the stained area with cold water. This will remove any remaining residue.
Sprinkle a generous amount of table salt onto the stained area. Let it sit for 5 minutes, then rinse off with cold water. Then, mix equal parts baking soda and water and apply to the stain. Let this sit for 10 minutes, then rinse off.
Finally, apply a small amount of laundry pretreater directly to the stain, and let it sit for 15 minutes. Rinse off with cold water.
