Step 1: Blot the Stain with a Dry Cloth

Step 2: Pre-Treat with a Stain Remover
Once you’ve blotted stain, pre-treat it with a stain remover or detergent. Make sure to use one specific for urine stains as that will be best for removing it. Treat the fabric and let it sit for a few minutes so it can do its job.
Step 3: Launder as Usual
Throw your clothes in the washing machine as normal. To up its power against the stain, you can add a cup of white vinegar to the wash cycle. The vinegar will help to break down the stain and make it easier to get rid of.
