Old Method
Fresh Blood:
Cold water or Club Soda. Sponge stain immediately with cold water or club soda and dry with a soft absorbant terry towel. Repeat as necessary.
Dried Blood:
One reader reported that in nursing school they tell students to use peroxide on the blood before washing. She reported it really works. I'd test a small section as it could also have a bleaching effect, but worth a try.
