How to clean Blood?

It is really important to use cold or low temperature water when treating blood stains as it stops the protein from coagulating and causing a permanent damage.

For fresh stains, rinse well under running cold water then hand-wash with normal or biological detergent. For old dry marks, drench in cold water, you can use washing soda crystal solution if you wish, then hand-wash. Further machine-wash is required afterward in both cases, at a washing temperature suitable for the fabrics. The same applies for woollen fabrics.

If you don't have a suitable detergent for the carpet, cover the stained area with corn flour and water paste, leave until dry and wipe out with cold water. Repeat if necessary.
