Never once lost a clothing item to a stain since I discovered presoaking in oxiclean


+1. We keep a bucket with water and oxiclean on our washer. Stained clothes go in, and once a week those go in the laundry. Pretty much everything comes out.


+2!

ALSO, my kids don’t eat tomato sauce in shirts. Topless spaghetti dinners. I’m hoping they are less messy about the time that it becomes inappropriate to make them eat shirtless.


OP here, yes I do shirtless meals. It's when DH serves food without me there to catch the shirt it happens. But also sometimes there are drops to the pants I wasn't accounting for...I guess I could just do naked meals!

I don’t try. Stained clothes live at the daycare as backups.

Don’t dry in the dryer until the stains are out. Some of the things that work for us are blue dawn and vinegar, oxi clean stain stick, and sunlight.

I stopped caring. I don't have time to pre soak and spot treat every stain. Whatever it comes out looking like it how they wear it. I consider stains on kids clothes patina.

We have a permanent oxy tub for soaking in basement. Kid is 3. Haven't thrown out anything due to stains yet.

Fels Naptha soap. Dampen the bar and spot treat or use an old toothbrush and brush on.

Resolve stain stick. Even if items sit a few days until I do laundry, everything comes out.

What do you use that gets out stains? I'm so tired of clothes getting trashed with tomato sauce.
