    Pumpkin stains

    My DD refuses to wear a bib. As a result many of her shirts have pumpkin stains to varying degrees. I have soaked in napisan, I wash her clothes in lux soap flakes and napisan and even added normal powder to the wash.

    Anyone got any suggestions??

    Hang them to dry in sunlight. Seriously.

    That's all you need to do.

    Yeah, sunlight takes care of all sorts of stains. It's the only thing I've found that will completely remove stains from tomatoes, as well. I put one of my son's white shirts through a wash with bleach in an attempt to recover it from an adventure with bolognaise sauce... Still had stains, but a few hours in the sun and they were gone. It worked for the pumpking stains when he was young, too. Only thing that did.
