How to Remove Blood Stains. Cuts and scrapes are a fact of life, but permanent staining
from them doesn't have to be – if you know what to do. You will need Cold water and shampoo.
Step 1. If the stained item is washable, rinse the blood stain with cold water as soon as
you can; keep rinsing until the water is no longer lightening the stain. If the blood
stain has had time to set in, soak it in cold water for a few hours. Never use warm or hot
water; it will set the blood stain in. Step 2. Dab a small amount of shampoo – any kind
will do – on the stain. Wet the area with cold water, and rub the item between your
hands until the blood is gone. Then soak the item in cold water for a few hours. Step 3.
Check the item. If any of the stain remains, repeat the process. As with all stains, don't
put the item in the dryer until all traces of the stain are gone. Did you know AB negative
blood is the rarest type.
