Here are some of the mistakes you are probably making during laundry:
Mistake 1: Rubbing Stains Enragedly.
You are making the stain worse. Instead, treat the stain as soon as you can - gently and methodically; the less time that elapses, the more success you’ll have. Dab, rather than rub, working from the outside in to keep the stain contained.
