I try to get them into cold water right away, get as much of the stain out as possible, then let them soak until I can throw them in the washer. Works 98% of the time. When it doesn't it is usually because I didn't get to them in time.
Around the time I expect my period to begin, I start wearing black or navy blue underwear...just in case. But accidents do happen.
Thanks for the spit tip, Sage. I've never heard of that before.
