Beware of using hot water on a fresh stain, as it can cause the blood to set.

Many standard washing powders now contain enzymes which help to dissolve blood stains.

OxyClean, or another oxygen based cleaner, will remove almost all blood stains.

Sprinkling baking soda, salt and meat tenderizer on the stain in half hour intervals before washing should take the stain off. Since the products used in this procedure work to remove the stains by breaking down the residual blood in the cloth, any other agent you can think of that does similar things to meat as these three products do is worth a try! This system is good because you don't have to worry about bleaching the fabric, like you would if you used hydrogen peroxide or bleach.
