Accidents happen, and if you've found a bloodstain on your mattress, don't worry, there are effective ways to remove it. Here's a step-by-step guide on
how to get blood out of mattress:
● Act Quickly: The faster you address the stain, the better. Fresh blood is easier to remove than dried stains.
● Gather Supplies: You'll need cold water, mild liquid detergent, a clean cloth or sponge, hydrogen peroxide (for stubborn stains), and a bowl.
● Blot, Don't Rub: Moisten the stained area with cold water and gently blot the bloodstain with a clean cloth or sponge. Avoid rubbing, as this can spread the stain.
● Detergent Solution: Mix a small amount of mild liquid detergent with cold water to create a soapy solution. Dab the solution onto the stain and blot gently.
● Hydrogen Peroxide (Optional): For stubborn stains, you can use hydrogen peroxide. Apply a small amount to a clean cloth and blot the stain. Be cautious, as hydrogen peroxide may lighten the fabric color.
● Rinse: Rinse the mattress by blotting with cold water to remove any remaining detergent or peroxide.
● Dry Thoroughly: Allow the mattress to air dry completely. You can speed up the drying process by using a fan or opening windows.
● Protect Your Mattress: Consider using a mattress protector to prevent future stains.
