Squirt some Fairy on it. Or any stain remover. Or both. Then launder as normal.

This. Leave it soak in for a bit before washing it.

Sprinkle stain, on wrong side, with talc or corn flour. Cover with Kitchen roll and apply hot iron. Brush off powder, repeat if required. Grease will be absorbed into powder. Wash

This is what I do with my work shirts that can get very nasty.

Talcum powder (it’s the only good use for it!)

I use Swarfega...rub a bit in the stain, then rinse it with a bit of warm water, and shove it in the machine with the rest of the washing.

The ‘fats and oils’ stain devil is amazing for this kind of stain

Fairy Liquid

Elbow Grease spray, then wash as normal

Talc can be use as ant deterrent, I think

I swear by The Pink Stuff spray. Spray it on, leave for a few minutes then wash with bio washing powder.
