i use Ivory dish washing liquid. my grandmother is the ultimate house keeper and she swears by the stuff to take stains out of fabric withut damaging the material. Also as a floor wash mixed with vinegar and water.
ps it also works great diluted as a flea bath for doggies. its really mild and gentle and it works by disolving the waxy outer coating of the flea, then it sinks into their blood streams and poof! no more fleas and no harsh chemicals for your dog. random, i know. but it works!
