Stain Removers - sick on cot sheets!!!!

White cot sheets have orange sick stain on them - (isn't weaning fun!!) I have tried Vanish oxi-action on stain and in wash and also shout spray. But with no avail. Any 'bright' ideas out there please?

If the sheet is "clean" otherwise and doesn't smell or anything I wouldn't worry, it will probably wash out gradually (esp if you hang it in the sun). Just put the stain at the foot of the cot until it does?

(You could try chlorine bleach but that might leave holes in the sheet.)

how big is the stain. If it is relatively small you could wet that part of the sheet, then put a bit of bleach on it and scrub out the stain with your fingers then rinse with laundry soapy water. Then put it in the wash. I've done it a couple of times for white clothes with nice orange poo stains.

Can only think of 'Shout', I'm afraid, though not the spray in the can - I use the pump one and have removed sick (the orangy type), successfully many times! The spray, I've found, doesn't work as well.

Oxiclean is good.
