OT- Treating Blood Stains

I have an old blood stain on my mattress that I just discovered and I need to get rid of it. I know to use cold water as hot water cooks the proteins in the blood but that's all I really know.

I hear to use unseasoned meat tenderizer and hydrogen peroxide. I also heard to use Oxy Clean. Can anyone verify these solutions or does anyone have any other remedies?

    I know that hydrogen peroxide takes out blood stains--I've used it before. Not sure about using the meat tenerizer with it. If you try it, let me know how well it works.

    I just got me some Oxy clean and it works great on blood stains. I would send you some but it's a little far:flowerforyou:

    Pour ICE cold water on the stain and then dab at it until it is all gone, is the only method that works for me!
