How to Remove Blood Stains on a Couch
Accidents can happen that lead to blood stains on furniture. Your son has a nosebleed that leaves a mess on your couch or your daughter jumps on the couch with a newly bloodied knee and the next thing you know you have a blood stain on your pristine furniture. Thankfully, blood stains can be removed.
Things You Will Need
- Cloth
- Cleaner that contains enzymes
- Toothbrush
- Towel
-
Wet a cloth and blot it on the stain to moisten it.
-
Apply a cleaner that contains enzymes to the stain. Quick'n Brite and Zout are two examples of cleaners that contain enzymes.
-
Rub a toothbrush in a circular motion over the stain, so the cleaner can penetrate the couch's fabric.
-
Wipe away any blood that is lifted out with a clean towel.
-
Wash off the stain remover by rubbing a damp cloth on the area. Let the moisture air dry.
-
Repeat this process if necessary.
