How and how to remove stains of green from clothes?

One awkward movement with a bubble of brilliant green, and the thought comes to mind: how to remove the green from clothes?

Our grandmothers used this tool when they treated moms and dads, and we continue to treat wounds with it for our babies. Despite the variety of powder and creamy antiseptic agents, Zelenka does not give up its positions. It is used from birth - they treat the umbilical wound of the baby in the first days of life, lubricate burrs and other scratches, abrasions.

Diamond green is an excellent tool, only easily soiled, and its release form is not the most convenient. The bottle is corked with such a tight lid that when opening it often happens to spill green. As a result, clothes, bedding, diapers and other interior items that were in the "epicenter of the disaster" suffer. According to Wikipedia, brilliant green is a synthetic aniline dye. At the same time, in the Soviet literature for housewives, in the section describing the fight against various stains, there is such a phrase: "Stains from aniline dyes on textile products cannot be removed." However, you can try! But the struggle is unlikely to be easy, and not every tool can remove the stain the first time.

General principles for removing "diamond" blots

If the brilliant green splashed and a stain formed on the fabric, it should be removed immediately or within half an hour, if it is not possible to wash immediately, for example, due to the whims of the baby or for another reason. In the event that the pollution is old, the chances that it will be possible to completely remove it become less and less. But for such situations, there is a way that may work.

Fresh stain from brilliant green should be removed as follows.

1. Fill the stain with water and rinse under running until clean water is poured from the fabric.
2. Apply the chosen method of cleaning: bleach or improvised means.
3. Wash your clothes in the usual way, possibly with the addition of bleach or powder enhancer, if this allows the type of fabric (for example, when washing bedding, cotton).

Next, we consider several ways to clean green stains on linen and things.

• things of the newborn should not be treated with aggressive chlorine-based agents.
