Satsuma stains

4 replies

I've just discovered that dd2 (8 months) loves satsumas, but they do tend to spray everywhere, & we've now got stained bibs, and one of her tops too. Any ideas as to how to get this out?

Soda crystals in your normal wash and an afternoon out in the sunshine/daylight.

Thank you. How much of the soda crystals do I add? Will that be ok with the rest of the laundry? Fingers crossed for some sunshine soon! Now you mention it, I remember my mum spilling some orange juice on a jumper, and the sun magicked it away!

Not much, a few tablespoons should do it. Its fine to add to the rest of your laundry. In fact I know a lot of people add it to every wash and halve their usage of washing powder.

Sometimes just putting it out in daylight will do the trick, sunshine just speeds it up a bit.

Thanks, I'll give it a try!
