Removing fish smell from clothes  

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
Is there anything else I can try to get the smell of fish out of my son's clothes? We had salmon the other night and he wiped his hands on his shirt and pants, both of which now stink to high heaven. I have tried detergent, detergent/dawn, soaking in baking soda/vinegar/dawn, tea tree oil/lavendar oil, detergent/baking soda, soaking in lemon juice ... what else is there to try? Would Simple Green work? I have washed these two things so many times and still they stink ...

And, the pan I cooked the salmon in also stinks, and it's been washed a couple times already too. What can I do to get rid of the stink? Please help!

After our cod liver oil fiasco, I feel your pain!! I finally got the stink out w/ lots of sunshine!!! I left his shirts outside for 2-3 days and the stink was gone!! Dawn got out the oil stains, but the funk would not go away!!!

Oh, I can smell your poor fiasco now! I will try the sun ... it's shining now (we actually had rain last night) ... hopefully though it won't bleach out their clothes too much ... though that might be much better than yucky stinky salmon scent!
