Just dampen the material around the stain, put a few drops on to cover the stain and work in by rubbing material together, or if a particularly nasty stain, use a toothbrush then launder as normal. Inspect after wash and if not completely out, repeat the process before drying.
There's something that needs to be posted in the FAQ section. We're (primarily) males, and we aren't known for cleanliness, usually. I know that I'll be able to use that information at some point.
