If you notice a small spot of dirt on your Burlap Plant Cover start off by tapping the area to remove any loose dirt that might be caught between the fibers.

.
Place a sheet of paper towel inside the bag cover underneath where your spot of dirt is located.

Take your white cloth and add a small drop of detergent on it.
Dip the cloth with detergent in some water to get it damp but do not soak it. You should notice a very slight lather.

Then gently begin to dab the area with the cloth to remove the dirt. You should start to see the dirt lift up. Dab the inside area of the bag if needed.
Do not rub or scrub the area as it could damage the fiber.

Once clean allow the area to air dry. DO NOT place your bag into the dryer.
