No need to use toxic chemicals when it comes to those stubborn laundry and carpet stains. With a little know-how and these natural ingredients you'll conquer most any stain!
It helps to understand the chemistry of stain removal. Berries are an acidic stain, so an alkaline treatment is optimal!
Some stains are best soaked, others blotted and still others do best when sprayed.
Here are few suggestions


Baby Formula: Washing soda, borax, castile soap.


Berries: Washing soda, borax, castile soap, hydrogen peroxide, glycerin.


Blood: Washing soda, borax, club soda, hydrogen peroxide, castile soap, cold water.


Butter/Grease: Washing soda, glycerin as prewash, castile soap.
