Default How do I get breastfed poo out of bamboo?

I have been using a few bamboo prefolds and boosters on my 2.5 month old who is exclusively breastfed. Hence her poo's are that lovely yellow mustardy colour.

Anyway she got some on a bamboo prefold and a booster. I soaked the prefold in napisan (didn't realise it was on the booster as well) but it didn't budge it even slightly.

Anyone got any tips for getting the mustard coloured stains out of bamboo?

Yep the sun is awesome at stain removal. Stains literally disappear before your eyes. I didn't believe it until I saw it myself!!! I never soak anything - just let the sun do its thang (And we're getting plenty of it here in S.A. atm - one positive thing about this terrible heatwave)

just wash as per normal and hang in the sun for a day.
maybe squirt/rinse off the poo before washing next time, as it can get a bit caught up in the loops sometimes.
but the sun should fade the stains within a couple of washes anyway.
