I stridenly disagreed with him, saying that I and generations of women had been removing blood from our panties for years and we certainly knew the best way to remove blood is just lots of hot water immediately applied.

So, Dear CollarMe Posters,

What's the best way to get blood out of fabrics?

Blood
For clothes that you launder, soaking the bloodstained garment in cold water for about 30 minutes will usually remove it. However, if stains are visible, mix a bit of water with unseasoned meat tenderizer (which breaks down the protein in the blood) and apply to the area. If the garment can’t be laundered at home, take it to the dry cleaner right away and identify the stain. Let the professionals save the clothing.

Status: offline 		i was told to use cold water intially, to keep the blood stain from setting in, until it could be washed.  That worked well also.  After that trick, warm water with a bit of soap, got the rest of it out just fine.  the key is to get to the stain before it has tmie to set in.  Cold water works that way with many different stains.

My mother was a nurse (I don't know if that is relevent) but she swore by cold water and salt for removing blood stains.

That depends.  

For fresh blood, rinse immediately under cold water.  Hot water can cause protien based stains to set rather than come out.  If it's dried blood, it depends on what type of fabric it is and what kind of dyes were used on the fabric if you want to avoid bleaching out the color.

Yes it certainly works as a stain remover but watch the concentrations you use or bleaching out the color of clothing may result.

Lucky, although not well versed in the principles of women/blood/smalls I can guarantee you that cold water removes blood from fabric whereas hot water doesn't. Next time you have blood on your smalls, let them steep in cold water for an hour and then put them in the washing machine and abracabra - clean as a whistle......it's a miracle to make Jesus's loaf of bread routine look like a mere drunken card trick.

Absolutely bang on and white wine will remove red wine stains.

Crisco will remove greasy oily dirty stains... then you have to get the crisco out

Yeah, but, what you're forgetting here is that putting your clothes in the fridge will remove chewing gum and when you're armed with this life-shaping knowledge there's no need to worry about crisco (whatever crisco is, is he the devil?)

Status: offline 		ERA detergent works like a charm....they even advertise it as having "enzymes which get out biological stains" and it really works.  The sooner you get to the stain, the better.  Since I work in a hospital lab, I keep some on hand all the time for just that purpose.  Rub some directly into the stain and let it sit for 10 or 15 minutes, then wash in cold water. 

I also agree that hydrogen peroxide or salt water (if you wear contacts, saline solution will work) works on a fresh stain.  They break down the red blood cell walls so that the red stuff can be washed away.

On an old blood stain, if it's white cotton or cotton-blend fabric, try soaking it in bleach.  Most of the time it will bleach out.  Obviously, bleach would be too strong for your finer fabrics.

Ketchup is good, esp. Hunts. But I don't use it much myself. I prefer most foods without too much in the way of condiments.

But hey, are you saying you don't like malt vinegar on your "chips" (french fries)? C'mon, that's good stuff - barley juice juice on a fried potato bit. As it happens, vinegar is one of the main ingredients in ketchup, and it's not as if the tomatoes didn't also provide a certain acidic fruity tartness themselves. These things are not miles apart after all.
