Okay, then - what's the best way to get propolis out of clothing?  I have
ruined some of my wife's garments over the years because bits of propolis
or wax got on them in the washer (even tiny bits) and when they went into
the dryer it warmed up and got into the fabric.  This has not helped our
relationship(!)  I've tried rubbing alcohol which seems to dissolve it
somewhat but then it tends to just "spread out."  So far that hasn't proved
reliable.  I realize all fabrics need different stain treatments, but would
appreciate ANY ideas along these lines.  Everyone else, pay attention to
any replies - it may save you some grief!    Thanks, J.
