The loads and loads of toxins and chemicals contained in cleaning products we use on a daily or almost daily basis, not only have an extremely negative effect on our health or that of our family but also the well-being of our environment. This is the reason why stain removal tips are of such immense importance, especially unbelievably effective stain removal tips.

It’s unbelievably easy to get and maintain cleanliness and sanitation in your home without the use of an arsenal of products filled with dangerous chemicals.

Caution! The use of cleaning materials with some very toxic solvents can be dangerous. These solvents include but are definitely not limited to Carbon tetrachloride and trichloroethylene. It’s recommended that these solutions never be used in your home.

Blood Stains- Personal experience has taught me that nothing works better for blood stain removal from clothing than a liquid known as “Tide”. Place stained garment in a bucket of water with a good dash of Tide. Leave to soak for at least a couple of hours and see the blood disappear.

Prevent Yellowing- Yellow stain prevention is not only cheap and safe but also environmentally friendly! All you need to do is invest in Borax powder. Sprinkle a couple of tablespoons full in every load of light colored laundry along with your normal laundry washing powder.

Ink stains are considered the number one type of stain we get on clothing and are also categorized among the most stubborn to get rid of effectively. Like almost all the other stains mentioned here, ink can be removed with three all natural items available in your kitchen, namely salt, baking soda or lemon juice.

Want to get rid of ink on white fabric? Apply cream of tartar and lemon juice paste and leave to dry in a sunny spot outside. Firstly, the paste will remove the stain, and secondly the sun will brighten the white fabric. The garment can then just be washed as per usual.

Another common stain is red wine. Red wine stains can be removed from fabrics in exactly the same way as ink stains. Or, you can give this a go: Soak stain in water and make a pouch in the cloth where stain is located. Pour cream of tartar into pouch, tie pouch ends together and leave garment to soak. After soaking, dip in luke warm water, and wash as per usual.
