Old stains

Hi there
I've washed a pair of baby's trousers and they've still got what looks like some kind of food/oil stain on them. Is there any way to get this out? I think they sat in the washing basket for too long unfortunately!

I always try washing up liquid on stains before rewashing

Have you tried adding Napispan to the wash?

The only thing I found that worked was hanging things on the line in the sunshine. Sorry I do realise that's not much use in January.

I didn't know if that could work on old stains but will give it a go!

I've never tried that, is it good?

Yes sunshine is so good for getting things like tomato stains out! Bloody dull January 🙈
