Here is your blood and red stain removal quick guide from the KE Chemists:
TIPS:
- It is easiest to remove blood and other red stains when they are still wet. Dried blood stains are infamously harder to remove.
- Also, be sure throughout the process to blot the stain, not rub it, as this will only push the stain further into the carpet fibers. Use the following steps to eliminate blood and other tough red stains.

INSIDER INFORMATION: Why blood stains are so hard to remove?
Hemoglobin is in blood and is the protein that carries oxygen throughout your body. Think of the hemoglobin like a paperboy or papergirl; throwing oxygen to all the muscles and organs as they travel throughout your body. Hemoglobin also acts similar to garbageman, grabbing onto and transporting other molecules around the body and just because hemoglobin is out of the body doesn’t mean it stops doing its job. So, the hard-working hemoglobin grab onto and bind with the carpet or any other surface that blood is exposed to. So, as you are trying to get the blood out, this group of stubborn little hemoglobin are holding on for dear life!
That’s why
Peroxi-Power works so well. The solution is formulated with powerful stain removing peroxide agents and specialty emulsifiers that safely break the bonds that any organic material is forming, like our hemoglobin to the carpet.
