Some people are able to gracefully avoid stains. Others are magnets for stains and can’t eat a simple snack without dripping spicy salsa or globs of chocolate ice cream down their shirtfronts. If you are a stain magnet, or live with one, you need stain-removing help! Betty is a genius at removing spots, from chocolate and grass to mildew and ink.

Some stain removers contain highly toxic solvents, or chorine bleach, both unfriendly to the environment. Betty believes in two things: A bar of Ivory soap and a scrub brush.

Double-check before drying. When in doubt, soak spots in cold water. Read more: http://www.care2.com/greenliving/remove-laundry-stains-12-tips.html#ixzz2j6bsD6RT
