How to Remove Blood Stains from a Mattress
Method 1 of 8: Blotting Before Stain Removal
Blot the stained area with a clean cloth. The cloth must be dampened with cold water. Do not use warm water, as this can set the stain for good.
2. Blot the area again. However, this time use a dry cloth to absorb the moisture left from the dampened cloth.
3. Do not rub! In each case, just blot––rubbing might cause the stain to spread or sink more deeply into your mattress.
4.Repeat the blotting process until the blood stain is gone or the cloth is not collecting up any more of the blood. If the stain remains, try the methods suggested below.
5.Choose a method for complete removal. Different methods can be used to remove blood stains from a mattress. But it is highly recommended to use the "gentlest" method first - Cold Saltwater Method. If the blood stain remains after the process, proceed to one of the other "stronger" methods following.
