What makes blueberry stains difficult
Berry juice contains a large amount of persistent pigments - anthocyanins, which give blueberries a rich "ink" color. The pigment is so strong that it is used for dyeing fabrics. This explains the difficulty of its removal.

How to remove blueberry stain from white clothes
Light colored fabrics are most vulnerable to dirt. But we do not stop wearing them, because white clothes are beautiful, aesthetically pleasing, in a special way. If blueberries spoil your mood and hit the most prominent place in white clothes, do not be discouraged. It is quite possible to cope with the current problem.
- The first thing that comes to mind is bleach and stain remover. Modern household chemicals are real saviors of favorite things. Virtually any contamination can be eliminated with quality professional products. White fabric stain removers and chlorine bleaches are suitable for white clothes. Apply a little of the product to the stain and let it sit for an hour. Powerful agents work almost before our eyes, making the blueberry stain pale and disappear completely.
- After that, you need to wash your clothes in a washing machine at 90 degrees. Add a little stain remover to the drum to enhance the effect and give the garments extra whiteness.
- Any chlorine-containing product can be used as an emergency measure. This can be a toilet or sink cleaner.
- If professional products are not at hand, you can use ammonia for white items. Apply some rubbing alcohol to the stain and let it sit for a couple of hours. Then rinse the item and soak it completely in ammonia solution (50 ml of ammonia per liter of water). This will remove unexpected stains and give the fabric a crystal-white whiteness.
- After such a procedure, you need to thoroughly rinse your clothes and dry them for a long time so that the smell of ammonia disappears. If the odor persists, simply rinse the clothes in lemon water (juice of one lemon to two liters of water). This will completely rid the fabric of foreign odors.
Stain removal rules
Regardless of which genus the pollution belongs to, and which fabric has suffered the most, there are general rules for dealing with stains. If you stick to them, then you can return things a second life.
- To completely remove a stain, you need to get to work immediately after it appears. Old dirt is much more difficult to remove.
- It is not recommended to put clothes with stains of various origins in boiling water. It digests protein and prevents further excretion. The spots remain forever in the structure of the tissue, turning into brown blots.
- Before starting the removal process, you need to make sure of the quality of the fabric and the durability of the paint.
- To reduce the area of pollution, it is necessary to make movements from the edges to the center, and not vice versa.
- To prevent the stain from spreading, it is necessary to moisten it and sprinkle it with crushed chalk around the edges.
- Aggressive agents must first be tested so that they do not spoil the fabric and do not discolor the paint.
Unlike other contaminants, it is very difficult to remove blueberries. Sometimes it takes 2 to 5 washes to deal with the problem
Do not wash blueberry stains with laundry soap. Mixing an alkaline and acidic medium will lead to the introduction of pollution deep into the fibers, after which removal by any means will be meaningless.
For the cleaning process, you will need a small piece of cloth, a cotton pad, or sticks. It is imperative to put a towel under the stain so that it does not go over to the clean side of the thing. For effective removal, it is necessary to treat small parts of the dirt, gradually moving from the edges to the center.

However, it is much more effective to mix vinegar with citric acid and treat stains with this solution. You can also soak stained clothing in this solution - 3 liters of ice water, 1 tablespoon of powder, and half a glass of vinegar.
- Salt and ammonia. First, rinse your garment thoroughly in cold water. After that, mix the ammonia with salt and apply the prepared gruel to the stain. Within a few minutes, the stain will fade and disappear completely.
