How to get BO smell out of a shirt

Thanks for all the suggestions. I do have Nappy San, hadn't thought about that. I will try each of the suggestions one at a time and cross my fingers one will work. The shirt is just a cotton one, and I have others similar, but this is the only one that does this. I will start giving it a go tomorrow, thanks girls for the ideas Really appreciate it.

I googled this as I had the same issue with one of my shirts. It was recommended to spray diluted vinegar on the shirt, leave for 10 mins or so then put it in a regular wash. It truly worked! I now do it as often as possible. I have a spray bottle in the laundry with diluted vinegar in it and I just give mine, DH & DS1's clothes a spray before putting them in to wash.

Ohhh sounds easy to have ready made how much vinegar do you need to water?

I used 1/2 & 1/2 but apparently undiluted is best.

I washed the shirt yesterday trying the Vinegar option. Of course the true test now is to wear the shirt. I will let you all know how it goes and if I had any success, and if not, I will try one of the other great suggestions. Thanks all

I had to look at this thread when I saw it because I have had the same problem with one of my shirts recently!!!

I worked at the election a few weeks ago and a few hours in I was like 'Who stinks? Sniff, sniff, sniff......NO!!! It's not me surely!!!" But alas.....it was. I couldnt get home to change or get anyone to bring me a top so I was stuck with it. I just tried to keep my arms down as much as possible and pitied the poor people I was working with....

Anyway, wore the same shirt yesterday.....after being at the hairdressers for 2 and a half hours I get up to leave and woof, there's that stink again!!! Oh no!!! How embarrassing!!!

Going to soak it now......I have a pink one exactly the same and no prob.....the purple is just the problem for me : )

Thanks for the tips!
