Recipe #68119 | 1 min | 1 min prep | add private note

This is straight out of the laundry room of DH's grandmother; it works too! I've also entered this under the "kid friendly" category because there was no "parent friendly" category to choose from! This spray concoction has been a godsend when getting stains out of my toddlers clothes.

1 spray bottle (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • wisk laundry detergent
  • ammonia
  • water

Directions

  1. 1
    Pour into spray bottle: 1/3 Wisk, 1/3 ammonia& 1/3 water; replace nozzle and shake/shake upon using.
  2. 2
    Spray directly onto stained clothes; sit to soak in or just apply prior to washing.
  3. 3
    DO NOT USE IF ADDING BLEACH TO LOAD OF WASH; toxic fatal fumes if mixing bleach and ammonia.

It got "blue moon" ice cream out of a lemon colored tee that I thought for sure was trash. Definitely a keeper!!

    Wow, this works GREAT! My step-son is a very messy eater and is always dripping something on him when he eats. I used the stain remover on what looked like spaghetti sauce. I didn't find the stain on his shorts until a few days later when I went to wash them. I used the stain remover and it worked great!!! The stain was completely gone! It's also very economical to make! Thanks Tara!!!
