Vampire blood on a white rugby shirt!!!

On a similar theme.

I cut myself shaving and have blood splatters all over my walls, ceiling and a huge blood trail leading from my room, down the stairs and into my car boot. Does anyone know of a way that I can clean it up and destroy any DNA might also be in the car boot carpets?

I need to get things cleaned up as soon as possible as i'm expecting a visit very soon.

Probably best to just leave the country.

Hmmm, I wouldn't use bleach, that always seems to react to the fancy squirty sprays and funny coloured lights. :think:
Shame it's your blood or you could have blamed it on energetic bungee jumping sex. :cool:

Sorry if this is in the wrong place...

my teenage daughter had a massive nose bleed one night and some blood soaked through to her new mattress . She did try to clean it up herself by sponging it out, but has made an even bigger mess!

Has anyone got any tips for cleaning the mattress? It is a memory foam mattress (doesn't have removable cover) which is only about 8 weeks old, so I would really like to clean it up as best as I can, because its got to last for quite a few years yet!!!

I would like to clean it as cheaply and be as envirommentaly friendly as I can.

Thanks.

Hi lovintheblues:

Use cold water only - warm / hot will set the stain.

In our army days we had off white mattresses supplied which had to be given back as clean as they were taken, as a 14 year old I had a tooth extracted and it bled heavily for 48 hours, and onto the mattress. My mum got all of the stain out by using a small amount of white vinegar and covering the stain with talcum powder which absorbed the blood. It took a while, but the mattress came up good as new, she left a towel over it for a few days and then hoovered the talc and the stain came away.

Whatever you do don't soak the mattress. Being memory foam it will take forever to dry.
