No but cold water and salt is supposed to work

Soaking in cold water with salt draws out blood stains. Then wash as normal with biological powder.

If it's only a small stain try spitting on it of you can bring yourself to. There is a chemical in saliva that breaks down the proteins in blood and helps get rid of it.

Oxygen stain remover gets rid of blood. As does Ace Bleach.

Or just washing with biological washing powder; the enzymes break it down.

I think it has to be spit from the person who the blood came from, it does work.

I usually use vanish, I was curious because my inner geek wondered if it was something to do with how it thins blood... I need a life!
