Milk Dribble/Spit Up Stains on Couch (also works for dog drool)
I have researched and tried multiple methods to clean my couches from the never-ending spit up stains. Most of the methods I found weren’t working; so I tried a combination of several ideas and came up with my own method!
FYI,
I have microfiber couches so I do not know how well this works on other types
of materials. Also, only try this while your baby or child is napping or is out
of the house as the alcohol vapor is probably not the best thing for their little lungs
- Use baby wipes to spot clean and don’t be afraid to scrub. Don’t be afraid to use multiple wipes. (Pro-tip: do not lay dirty wipes on another part of the couch, they will leave a dirty water stain there).
- The cushion should be pretty saturated from baby wipe wiping. Use a blow dryer to help dry quicker and prevent later marks (this step is necessary or you will be left with giant water marks all over your couch)
- Put rubbing alcohol in a sprayer bottle and spray the crap out of your cushion. Saturate that sucker. Use a fingernail scrubber, potato scrubber, or something like this to scrub at the stains. Use blow dryer to dry.
- Repeat steps for problematic stains.
- Once satisfied with your results, use a large scrub brush and rough up the material. The soup and alcohol will have left your cushion feeling stiff, this will soften it up.
- Enjoy your newly clean couch!
