How to Remove Tree Sap From Cloth
- 1). Place the cloth item with the tree sap stain in a freezer, or place an ice cube directly on the tree sap until it freezes. Carefully pick off as much sap as you can with your fingernail.
- 2). Apply rubbing alcohol, tea tree oil or WD-40 on the remaining tree sap stain on laundry-safe materials, and agitate it with your fingertips until it dissolves. For dry-clean-only items and carpet, dab dry-cleaning solution onto the stain with a clean cloth until it dissolves; let air-dry.
- 3). Rinse affected area of laundry-safe items with a white vinegar and water solution, one part vinegar to one part water.
- 4). Spread undiluted liquid laundry detergent directly onto the sap stain, and allow it to sit for 5 to 10 minutes. If the sap stain is still visible, gently scrub the detergent with a toothbrush until saturated.
- 5). Launder and dry the cloth item according to its manufacturer's instructions.
