How can i remove dirt stains from white towels if bleaching has not worked?
A very old-fashioned, but very effective, method of getting white clothing, linens or towels bright white again is to boil them. The fabric needs to be completely natural, e.g. 100% cotton or linen - NO SYNTHETICS!. I've always used a combination of Tide and Biz (an enzyme cleaner usually found in the laundry section of the grocery store). Use about 1/4 C of each. Add to a large pot of water and bring to a boil. Add your fabric and let it cook for about 20 minutes in a well-ventilated area. I've used this for antique baby dresses and linens and they always come out bright sparkling white. Should you use this for clothing, remember to remove buttons first - they'll melt in the boiling water! I've never tried it on towels but if you've tried everything else you might as well give this a try. Good luck!

What stain remover works best?
It totally depends on the type of stain, the stained material and how far you are willing to go. Here some hints:
Motor oil or grease
Rub with butter or plant oil, then add liquid soap (without water) and rub again, then rub and rinse thoroughly with water, then rub with liquid soap, and then with water again. Plant oil solves motor oil, liquid soap solves plant oil, water makes an emulsion with it so you can wash it off. In hard cases, use organic solvents like acetone, but not on skin.
Colorful plants and fruit juice etc.
When fresh, rinse with copious water. If dried or not removed completely, use bleach.
Paint
On skin: Water and soap and rubbing, no organic solvents, please!
On other surfaces: When fresh, use appropriate thinner for that paint. When dry, give first methylated spirits and then acetone a try. Test first somewhere for compatibility: Acetone dissolves/disfigures many polymers.
Rust
Use combination of ascorbic acid and citric acid and baking soda. Or maybe Coca Cola. Or rust remover, which is phosphoric acid as far as I know.
Limestone deposits, like in a shower
Light cases: Vinegar. Medium cases: Citric acid. Hard cases: Hydrochloric acid. Careful, it's corrosive!
Cement stains
Cement stain remover, as far as I know it's hydrochloric acid.
Clay, soil etc.
Soap
Blood, egg, other protein-containing contaminants
I didn't try this, but a paste made of a crunched dishwasher soap tab plus a bit of warm/hot water (65 °C) should be quite effective. Wear gloves, it's corrosive for skin!
Really, really resistant organic stuff on very, very robust surfaces like glass, stainless steel, porcelain
Like the remainders of a a totally charred gratin after several conventional cleaning cycles
If you are really, really zealous and have access to the necessary chemicals: Piranha solution! One part of 30% hydrogen peroxide solution with three parts of concentrated sulfuric acid. Mix very carefully! It gets hot, explodes in contact with excess organics and eats everything, including your flesh. Hence, the name piranha. But it even dissolves carbon, so it is sometimes the last chance to recover laboratory glassware and the like.
I generally use Dawn dishwashing liquid for softening and removing dried or or difficult to remove materials, and then a final wipe down with a cloth saturated with undiluted distilled white vinegar to disinfect and leave a shine. j3h.

How do you remove a pet feces stain from a grey carpet?
There are a number of options in regards to cleaning pet stains. One of the most common remedies offered as a suggestion is to clean the stained area with either vinegar or ammonia. Both are inexpensive household items, and both contain a high enough level of acidity to break down stains. However, vinegar and ammonia are quite possibly the worst things you can use for pet stains. Both vinegar and ammonia contain some of the same chemical compounds found in urine. The scent of these compounds can cause confusion with your dog and increase the likelihood that your pet continues to go to the bathroom in that spot. While vinegar or ammonia make break down the visual stain, they are not breaking down the odor. Instead, they are adding to to. Because of this the probability that your dog will continue to have accidents in that spot.
Another popular suggestion are enzymatic cleaners. These types of cleaners are often hailed as a green solution as they operate on the principal that bacteria released on the stain will naturally combat it by breaking it down. As wonderful as this sounds, the likelihood of enzymes properly working against the pet stain are low. Enzymes are often compared to a lock and key scenario. You can have all the keys in the world, but only the right one will work on a lock. Likewise, only the right enzyme will break down a certain stains. Enzymes are extremely sensitive. The conditions for them to work must be a 100% match. Variables that affect whether an enzyme will be successful include temperature, moisture, and interference from other chemicals previously used. The stain itself can also affect the enzyme. Dog's diets can add variables in the stain that can prevent the enzyme from working. While the enzyme might be able to battle some components of the stain, it often doesn't have the energy to get into the padding. While initially an enzymatic cleaner may seem to be doing good, the odor and stain generally return in a few days. Once again inviting your puppy to sniff out the spot as a bathroom.
To properly put an end to accidents, the area needs to be properly cleaned. The odor needs to be removed as well as the visual stain, as it is the odor that will draw your dog back to that spot. The best way to clean these types of stains is with a surfactant based cleaner like Genesis 950. Genesis 950 is a green cleaner with no harsh chemicals, no enzymes and no ammonia or vinegar. It works with water to break the bonds of stains and lift them from the surface. The best way to clean pet accidents is using a steam cleaner or carpet cleaning machine. This will allow the solution to get below the surface of the carpet to the pad. When a pet has an accident on the carpet, it is important to remember that the stain seeps below the surface and traps the odor in. Cleaning the surface might remove the visual stain, but it does not address the odor trapped below which can be smelt by your dog. It is that smell that will keep them going in that spot. Using Genesis 950 will deodorize the scent and in addition will also kill any germs and bacteria within the carpet and padding. This will remove odor and prevent the growth of bacteria or mildew.
Of course part of puppy training requires regular visits outside. While outside, use that time to help your pet find an area where they can relieve themself. When they have found an area, always take them to that spot and let them take time to smell the area. This will help them establish that area as their bathroom. In doing so, your dog will not be looking for such an area in the home.

How do you clean miller moth stains from curtains?
Put a little "Clorox clean up" on a wet sponge and wipe it away. Even if your window sash is wooden with a nice stained finish, the Clorox clean-up won't hurt it as long as it's diluted w/ water and you wipe/rinse it all off after the stain is gone. I clean all my window sashes with this because it works really good, really quickly, with little scrubbing. Also, bleach kills mold (which likes to grow on windows) and discourages mold growth.
