What about bloodstain? I have one on linen and while it usually comes out this one didn’t work with peroxide, oxi or white brite (which bleached the other part of the linen ;()

Blood just needs hydrogen peroxide to break it down. I find Windex works best (it has HP plus more). Spray well on blood. Wash.

Next time use that first. It's like magic on blood. If you already soaked in oxi, it might still work but I'm not 100% sure. Worth a try.

It burns the skin if it touches you, think 2nd or 3rd degree burn. If you use it you must put it under lock and key literally. Open windows. Close bedroom doors. Use a mask and long rubber gloves.

Oh gosh that sounds so scary. Definitely don’t want to try that!

It’s funny because I recently moved into a new house and the previous owners left a lot of cleaning supplies and I just discovered they left this in the laundry room! So now I’m tempted to try it. I have a front load so I can’t fill it up with water first. Do u use a mask?

I second the Wearing bibs at all times.

Zout spray, think soaked through, on oil stains and left to sit for some time really helps.

Windex for blood. Miracle.

Food stains ( fruits/vegetables) on light colored clothing are the worst. I use Murphy or palm olive under cold running water to rub it in. Or, tougher stains needs nature bright paste and soak.

Amodex is great for Ink stains and tough food stains.
I always say getting stains out of clothing is a bit of a science. Sometimes u need different methods for diff things.
Good luck.
