How do you get period blood out of your clothes/sheets?

1. Dawn dish soap works wonders. Just rub it in really good and then put it in regular wash and it should get most of it out if not all of it

2. Hydrogen peroxide. If it’s small enough, your own spit.

3. rinse with cold water as soon as possible and then wash like normal. if you have white cotton sheets, you might be able to wash on high heat, that takes care of stains very well.

   there are also handwashing detergents that are sold in bottles and have little brushes in front. in germany the most popular is “rei in der tube”, idk about other countries.

4. Shampoo gets out blood stains pretty well in a pinch

5. I put it in water immediately so the blood doesn’t get to dry, then I rub some Vanish on it like 10 minutes before putting it in a regular wash. Always worked for me.

6. wash with soap in COLD water

7. I was told: NO hot water, just cold. Dish soap and some “elbow grease” works great

8. Hydrogen peroxide gets (most) blood stains out of (almost) anything!!!

9. Sard wonder soap and cold water. Hot water sets protein stains.

10. Cold water, dish soap and a smidge of lemon juice.

11. Hydrogen peroxide or concentrated hand sanitizer….or just painting over it w/ acrylic paint lol

12. Cold water when it’s fresh. Oxyclean or hydrogen peroxide when it isn’t,

13. If the stain is fresh, blot it with a clean cloth soaked in cool water. If the stain is dry, scrape off any dried blood with a dull knife, then pretreat it with a commercial laundry prewash product or soak it in cold water with 1/2 cup vinegar for 30 minutes. Launder in the hottest water safe for the fabric, using detergent and bleach if needed.
