How do I get stains out of clothes from baby formula?
By Shelley
I have four grown children now. When they were small I used Spray n wash on their clothing. I never had stains. I also used burping clothes when they were very small when burping them.
Try using powdered dish washer detergent (any brand). Wet the spot on the clothes. Make a paste of the dishwasher detergent and water, and scrub in.
We use a mixture of oxi clean or BIZ (enzyme cleaners, cascade powdered dishwasher soap, resolve stain remover and Awesome (which I believe is the key. It cleans everything! You can find it in a spray bottle at the Dollar Tree for $1 or Dollar General in a big bottle for $3-$5), all combined with my regular detergent and fabric softener in the washing machine. I use this process for clothes that are strained with formula, grease, blood, grass, basically any difficult strain. I just use the same measurement of all of these as the regular detergent (so, I use the detergent cup to measure). Some people say Dreft works but I've never tried it. My way works... Why fix what's not broken, right?
Tried this method. This did not work. Still have stains! I wanted to pass down these clothes ! Urgh. I'll try another method. I really need these stains gone !
Is there any way to get out set in baby formula stains?

When we got a baby outfit from the thrift shop with some stains, we soaked it in Oxi-Clean. Took care of the problem!
I just used Oxi Clean laundry stain remover on my new granddaughters baptism dress and it worked perfectly. It had been on the dress since last baby 4 years ago. So happy
This is my exact problem. Thanks for sharing! Did u put in the washer?

I was just given a bunch of baby clothes. Some of them are stained with formula and a few have mildew stains. Any suggestion on how to remove the stains?
I have some lovely baby clothes that were given to me. Unfortunately they have what might be formula stains on them. Can anyone out there tell me how to get the stains out? Thanks bunches.
If you have baby clothes with formula, food or puke stains (even old ones), this works: Soak the clothes in a bucket of water with a powder oxygen cleaner (like Sun or Arm and Hammer). Put lemon juice on it, if it's white.
Baby formula stains UNTIL NOW were almost impossible to get out. I recently bought a can of OXYGEN CLEAN at the Dollar Tree, just thinking it might actually do what it says it will do.
