Greasy stains

To remove grease stains on fabric, it may be enough to sprinkle the spot with flour, leave it for a while to absorb the grease, shake the flour off and wash as usual. Alternatively, run very hot water through the stain, apply eucalyptus oil to absorb the grease, and wash as usual. [Source: 'Natural Stain Remover', £4.49, Friends of the Earth Shop)
