The answer to removing fresh blood from pin pricks, etc., is your very own saliva. I had a young lady here fitting her bridal gown one day and she dragged her finger on my pins and bled on the bodice. Quickly, I grabbed muslin and told her to 'spit' on it..we rubbed every trace of the blood away so the dress wouldn't have to be cleaned before the wedding. It's true! The same enzymes in both--but it has to be your own blood and your own saliva.
