Read on to explore how to remove vomit stains from clothes using Vanish and a few other alternatives if you don’t have access to Vanish.

Turn the nozzle’s trigger to the on position while directing the trigger away from the face.

Additional tips for handling vomit stains on clothes
The longer the vomit stain is left untreated, the more difficult it becomes to clean it up. Vomit contains gastric acid, so if you do not pre-treat it immediately with Vanish Pre-Treat Oxi Action Stain Remover Spray, there’s a chance of making the stain permanent.
If you are considering using bleach to remove the vomit stains, don’t! Bleach is a mixture of various chemicals and has a base nature. Since vomit is a protein stain, removing it with bleach can cause it to worsen and even lead to discoloration.
Removing a vomit stain is often only half the battle. Sometimes, a rancid odor can linger in fabrics after removing the stain. It suggests that odor-causing bacteria remain, feeding on some leftover vomit residue. To ensure this does not happen, always remove vomit stains using Vanish, which removes stains, neutralizes odor, and eliminates 99.9% of germs and bacteria.
