How do I remove sap from my lingerie?

Start by scraping off as much sap as possible with a dull knife or spoon, followed by dabbing the spot with a cloth or paper towel. Then soak the affected area in warm soapy water for 10 minutes, followed by applying a small amount of laundry detergent or stain remover and rubbing gently. Repeat as necessary until the stain is gone. Then be sure to rinse all of the soap or stain remover away before laundering.

What should I do if the stain does not come out?

If the stain still remains after several attempts at cleaning it, you may need to take the garment to a professional dry cleaner. They will have the right products and experience to get the stain out without damaging the fabric.
