If they are white or even light colored clothing try a little bleach and washing powder and let them soak before washing or try colorsafe bleach for colors.. If this doesn’t work try oxy clean and warm water.

Soak in cold water , now rub in good old soap bar soap , ( natural soap), leave the soap on and the clothes free from water for at least 1/2 hr. Rinse the soap off. Give a good rinse, next hang the clothes outside in the sun,. These type of stains are hard to remove , but you might be lucky if you try this. Once the clothes have been outside for 1/2 hr, sprinkle cold water over any remaining stains. Keep doing this for as long as you can every 1/2 hr and the sun should bleach the stain out . My grandmother did this with all her white linen sheets ,towels and any other clothing that has stubborn stains . I myself use this method often . Try it might work for your daughters clothes . Just remember always cold water

I think this could be your answer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Could this be the source of your stains? For me it was baby formula that appears almost invisable, but once packed away changes from transparent to yellowish brown.
I used to throw these away until someone told me about this remedy and after I tried it, it took out 100% of the stains that were even two years old. I’m confident that it will work for you too.

Take liquid WISK DETERGENT and saturate it on the stain. Sprinkle a generous amount of CASCADE dishwasher detergent (powder kind not gel or liquid) on the stain.

If the clothing will not be hurt from a little scrubbing, then use a soft brush like an old toothbrush to work the liqued into the material.

Let it sit for 10 minutes and then rinse it out. If it is not all the way out, repeat it and let it sit for 20 minutes. I have done this as well as added Oxy clean and let it sit for up to 6 hours . When I have added Oxy clean and let it sit for the full six hours, I have not yet had ONE stain that did’nt come completely out!

I first used this on baby clothes stains and was told that they were from formula from a resale shop owner of baby items. She would go to garage sales and purchase clothing with horrible stains and would never think twice about the stain. I can tell you that this truely works and is so simple it seems doubtful–but you will not be dissappointed!

Good Luck!

they are old spots of mould , the clothes could have been a little damp or hot from a dryer when put away and kept a bit of moisture in them… thus the stains…..
try and find a mould or mildew remover…
