Stain Remover

Postby bridgemontbelle on Tue Apr 13, 2010 11:56 am

Hi,
My husband has ecszma on his legs and scratches them in his sleep.
The upshot is that the bedding is covered in blood stains in the morning. I've tried everything on the supermarket shelves and nothing works.
Has anyone got any ideas on how to get it out?
Thanks a lot.

How horrid for him...

Does a mix of salt and soda work? - bit of water rubbed in?

Soaking in cold water should remove blood stains. (Poor man)

Soaking in cold salted water usually works

Thanks, all.
I've tried saoking in cold water to no avail - I'll add salt and see if that helps.
Thanks, again.
