I Went To Put A Light Coloured Coat On Yesterday And Noticed A Fair Splash Of Dried Bird Poo On It.

I tried it in the washing machine but the stain is still there. Any suggestions?

What fabric is it?

[Baldric]

Buy a Lotto Ticket, getting poo'd on is supposed to be lucky!

[vakayu]

That certainly was not lucky then sandy!

You will need to rub in some biological washing powder paste or biological washing liquid to the stain before washing, then put it in the machine on the hottest temperature you can for the fabric.

Baldric for best answer...you can share your winnings on AB ;-)

Parked my car in the office car park recently , only to return to the car to see that some blooming birds had deposited the remains of their meal all over it .

It was so much that i had to have a close look cos i thought someone had thrown something on it ( just thought i'd mention it )

It's the jacket of a suit I bought in M&S. There's no label on it other than one saying it's machine washable. I was just looking the the trousers to see if there was any more info on them but they're nowhere to be found.
I'll try the suggestions in Mazie's link.
The birds around here mustn't like me. It's not so long ago one of them decorated my new hat.

I always try neat Fairy liquid on bad stains,and give a good rub,but Vanish is good too.

Block soap by Vanish is pretty good with most stains.

Dampen the block and give the stain a good rub before washing the jacket again.

Keep looking for the washing instructions, though, they will be there, then wash it at the highest temperature the fabric will stand.
