Berry and fruit stains can be persistent, but with the right methods, they can be effectively removed from clothing. UAportal tells you how to quickly solve this problem.

Vinegar and water

The contaminated area should be soaked in a mixture of vinegar and water for about 30 minutes, and then gently brushed with a toothbrush. Rinse the product with cold water and repeat the process if necessary. This method is gentle on fabrics and effective in breaking down the acidic components of stains.

Lemon juice and salt

Sprinkle the stained area with salt and then sprinkle with lemon juice. Leave the mixture on for a few minutes and then rinse the item in cold water. For more stubborn stains, you can also gently rub the mixture into the fabric before rinsing. It is important to wash your clothes immediately after using the lemon juice and salt mixture to prevent potential acid damage to the fabric.

Commercial stain remover

For particularly stubborn stains from berries and fruit, we recommend using commercial stain removers. Simply follow the instructions on the product and treat the stained area before washing your clothes as usual. Be sure to check the label and test the product on a small, inconspicuous area of the fabric.

Detergent and hydrogen peroxide

A combination of detergent and hydrogen peroxide can also be effective for removing berry and fruit stains from clothing. Mix a small amount of soap with hydrogen peroxide to form a paste, which is then applied to the stained area. Leave the paste on for a few minutes and then rinse the clothes with cold water.
