Like it says "Ideas wanted for removing dried-on blood stains from
linen". I tried a
couple of days soaking in diluted Persil


A soak with some Biotex usually works.


My preferred approach for stubborn stains is to soak the offending
item in a mixture of biotex and percarbonate bleach ('oxygen ' bleach -
Ecvoer laundary bleach, Oxiclean etc.).

Leave to soak for a couple of days and then wash. Expsoure to the sun
is also a good way of bleaching out some stains


Only on white fabric, or if you prefer white patches to brown
