Discover our latest podcast
Once you notice the stain on your clothes you will need to act on it quickly before it settles into the fabric. If this happens it will be much harder to remove the stain. If the blood stain settles for longer than 24 hours then we are sorry that say that it will no longer come off. Here are some common items that will help remove the blood stains.
1. Vinegar: Pour white vinegar on the spot and let it sit for 5-10 minutes before you try to scrub it off with a piece of cloth. Repeat this step until the stain is removed then throw it in the washer immediately.
2. Hydrogen peroxide: You will only want to use this product if it's a fresh stain. Apply the peroxide on the stain and rinse it with fresh water. Repeat this step then place in the washer for a full rinse.
3. Cola: This trick is great to use if you are at a restaurant or public place. Dab a few drops of Cola on the stain and let it sit overnight. Once you get home, add some vingear on the stain and place it in the washer straightaway.
4. Corn starch: Mix a little corn starch with water and dab it over the blood stain. Make sure you rub it gently into the fabric. Repeat this process if necessary then place it in your washer to remove any residues.
5. Cold salt water: Soak the article of clothing in cold salt water for 3-4 hours. After, rub the stain with washing up soap and place it in your washer for a full rinse.
