These three types of stains are common in the spring and summer! Use the tips below to clean them out of your clothes gently but effectively.

  1. For tough grass stains, apply laundry detergent directly to the stain and let it soak in for a few minutes. Then lightly scrub the soiled area with an old toothbrush and wash as usual.
  2. For mud and dirt stains, let any mud dry into dirt, then remove the dirt with an old toothbrush or plastic knife. Rinse in cold water. Apply laundry detergent to the stain, let it soak for a minute or two, then wash as usual.
  3. For pollen stains, shake the clothing to remove as much pollen as possible, then wrap tape around your fingers (sticky-side out) and gently dot at the stain. Apply laundry detergent to the stain, let it soak for a minute or two, then wash as usual.
