After trying everything on the market I have found the best stain remover is baking soda, vinegar, and water. I fill a bucket up with my first grade science project and soak his clothes overnight. I also have had lots of success with oxiclean on bleeding fabric. Grandma's spot remover is pretty awesome too.


Blood is a protein and as such can be raised from fabric when treated with Hydrogen Peroxide. Nurses have used this trick for years to remove blood from out white uniforms and now scrubs. It even works on dried blood that's days old. My friends have used this trick to remove blood from a bed quilt when her beloved dog went into heat and bled all over her favorite quilt. Give it a try...good luck.

I hope that you find something to help.
