Getting blood out

Out of something like a couch.  I wouldn't want to scrub and make the fabric pill up, don't want to use peroxide because I know it can sometimes bleach the material.  I've been using ice and a rag (just blotting with the rag) and it's getting a lot of it up but I'm not sure I'll be able to get all of it up.  There's not much but DS1 has been getting a bloody nose all day since EARLY this morning.

Re: Getting blood out

  • My 2 go-to products are Nature's Miracle and Oxy Clean Max Force gel stick.
  • hydrogen peroxide usually does it for me

    It might take several attempts, depending on how much and how dry.

    Try it on the back of the couch in a spot that won't show to test for bleaching.

  • if the lab we use saline to get blood out of our scrubs I'm not sure if you can just buy saline but it works for us.

  • Borax and a little powder detergent with just enough water to make a paste, use just a little bit so you don't get a white spot, but this gets all the blood stains out that we had when our dog would wag his tail so hard and then the tip would start bleeding.  Good luck!

     

  • We use ammonia- not sure how that would fare on a couch though.
