Question: How can I clean my gray UGGs without buying the cleaner?

I was at lunch yesterday and someone spilled apple juice on them. It's a few drops, they dried up but the outline of the stains are still there.

This may sound stupid but I hear snow is a disinfectant, so if I step in deep snow with them, will it go away? Someone suggested it but I wasn't so sure.

Also, how else can I remove the stains without putting them in the washer or buying the UGG cleaner?

Answer: Rub some eucalyptus oil into the stain. If you have trouble finding any use Martha Gardiner's wool mix with eucalyptus oil. Sponge over with warm water, or better still throw them in the washing machine and wash on wool cylce. I have been using the washing macine to launder UGG boots for years.
