When we wash the sheets, we think the most annoying thing is the blood on the sheets, it is really unsightly. However, women have to get their periods every month, so it is difficult to avoid accidentally dirtying the sheets when sleeping. In addition, when the weather is hot, there are a lot of mosquitoes, and the sheets are also easy to stain the blood of mosquitoes. Bloodstains on bed sheets or clothes give us a headache, and the effect of cleaning with laundry detergent is limited. Sometimes we put the sheets in the washing machine several times, but the bloodstains still can't be removed, especially the dried bloodstains.

If it is just stained with bloodstains, which is still not difficult to remove. We can first put the sheets into a bucket or basin to soak, and then pour on some salt, salt not only can sterilize but also can increase the friction when we scrubbed the sheets. In addition, we can also sprinkle a small amount of white vinegar on the bloodstains. The role of white vinegar is to soften the bloodstains and remove the odor. After we gently rubbed the sheets for 1-2 minutes, we can see the salt bloodstains began to slowly fade. At this point we can use detergent to clean, there are bloodstains in the place basically clean.

For blood stains that have dried, we can use a native folk method: the white radish juice or carrot juice cleaning method. White radish and carrot are rich in amylase, which can react with the proteins in blood stains to remove them. First, chop up some white radish or carrot and then pour it on the bloodstained sheets and rub them together. If we have a blender at home, we can also directly juice the white radish or carrot and then soak the blood stain on the sheets with the white radish or carrot juice for 20-30 minutes for better results. Finally, we can sprinkle a little salt on the area with blood stains and rub gently, and the old blood stains will be removed.
