I usually rub in a little baking soda with the dawn: mild abrasive and its own stain-lifting power. This is my go-to household stain remover for all surfaces. For odor: vinegar. For blood: peroxide. For everything else dawn+baking soda!

cold water will get all the blood out of you do it immediately

Ymmv and often the “immediately” that is actually possible isn’t immediately enough to not have a bit of stain. But hydrogen peroxide, even when the stain is set, will denature those blood proteins right out of the fabric

Yeah hydrogen peroxide is better. Just providing an alternative for people who don’t have any around.

Oh I just throw it in the laundry. It's not the chemical but the concentration so a cup of lye in like a 20 gallon washing machine is fine and the lye saponifies all the oil/grease etc literally turning it into soap

I rub dawn into stain with my bare fingers most of the time, so I was picturing using lye for the same sort of spot treatment 😂😂😂

Bad idea unless that scene in Fight Club really turned you on for some reason

Saliva from the human who’s blood it is works great too.
