Whats the best way to the stinky breast milk smell out of my daughters clothes?

Question

I'm always squirting all over her, or she spits up on herself. Bibs don't do anything unless I leave them on her all day long, then they end up smelling just as bad too haha. I tried soaking her clothes, didn't work. I even tried color bleach....help!

Answer 1

a detergent with enzymes should help if not try adding baking soda to your wash or a detergent with baking soda like arm and hammer laundry detergent and wash the clothes right away

Answer 2

Use the Shout Ultra Gel (the one with the orange b rush on top) & apply directly to the milk stains. This will help with the smell & the yellowish stains milk can leave behind. Then wash clothes in your regular detergent AS WELL AS about 3/4 cup Oxyclean. Be sure & use a fabric softener sheet or two when drying. Guaranteed to work.Good luck!!

Answer 3

I used to work in sanitation at a food processing plant and had some stinkin issues when it came to clothes. I used GoJo hand cream. It is an industrial hand cleaner but it is safe to put in the laundry and it helped get rid of the smell.

If you don't want to do that, then some type of a detergent with enzymes will probably work. The microscopic living organisms should eat up the substance(s) causing the smell.

Answer 4

I remember squirting all over my little one a whole lot! Soaking the clothes in Borax helped, but the sun did the best. Depending on your water, baking soda during the wash cycle or white vinegar during the rinse cycle might help a lot too.
