ANSWER: You might try equal parts of Cascade dishwashing detergent and Clorox 2 powder in very hot water.
I found this tip in
The Tightwad Gazette, and it works like a charm for me.
I will usually soak the clothes in this solution overnight and then wash as usual.
I haven't tried it on cloth diapers yet, and I always use the brand name detergents.
I don't know if store brands would work also.
I have even removed stains (probably food, formula, breast milk stains?) from second-hand items, and who knows how long those stains have been there?!
Thanks to Joyce for this Frugal Baby Tip!
