Basic Baby Clothes Stain Removal:

Pre-treating stains is the best way to keep your baby clothes looking like new. Formula, diaper accidents, and brightly colored baby food can be difficult stains to remove from baby clothes, but taking the time to work on the stains before washing should improve your success rate. If stained clothing will sit for a while, try using a paste-type pretreatment that can sit on the fabric for up to a week. Otherwise, a spray-on stain treatment or laundry additive should handle most stains.

Removing Stubborn Baby Clothes Stains:

For stains that don't respond to basic treatment, you'll need to take a more aggressive approach. Moms at the Baby Products Forum have been successful at removing stains by making a paste of Oxi-Clean and spray stain remover, putting baby clothes in a mixture of boiling water and Oxi-Clean, using Era detergent to pre-treat stains, and using Zout stain remover. One mother I know has an unusual stain-fighting tactic: buy all white baby clothes and wash them with bleach.

Answer 4

I should think they are fine - if you are worried then give them an extra long rinse to make sure every last bit of the stain remover is gone but other than that you'll be ok

Answer 5

I use Dreft and/or Baby Oxy which are made specifically for baby clothing...both are in a spray form and seem to work rather well on stains.

Answer 6

Yes, stain removers are perfectly fine for babies. I use Shout. It is the best one on the market. It works really well and gets all of my stains out.  

Answer 7

Boots have a baby version of that vanish oxy action powder that goes in with your wash (I didn't want to use the vanish adult version), its where the milton fluid and all that is kept in store.

I use it and it gets bright yellow poo out of cloth nappies so its pretty good stuff!

Answer 8

yes

Answer 9

Put either BioTex or Vanish in the wash.  Wont cause any problems
