Let it bleed a little. Truly it gets all the bacteria out of the cavity, however if the bleeding persists. Hold a pad of sterilsed gauze over cavity and apply pressure. Also try and stop sucking on the hole as well.
In reality though when your brother pulled it out is more likey to be the skin surrounding the cavity that was torn when he removed the tooth. And that this the cause of the bleeding.
It might be that you are a bleeder and need advice from a dentist. Get your Mum to make you an emergency appointment if the bleeding does not stop.
Next time use a pair of plyers and chisel to pull your teeth. Better still GO TO THE DENTISTotherwise you may damage your second teeth waiting to coming through. And you also run a high risk of infection from doing something so stupid.

ably pressure to the area with cotton wool pad or tissue, this will help the blood to form a clot on the top and stop it bleeding,Do Not use salt water , and next time see a dentist and don't let your brother pull your teeth out. You could get it infective or worst. ( blood poisoning,lock jaw)

rub ordinary granulated sugar into the wound. don't do this too much though as it's obviously bad for you! The sugar helps the blood to clot. Don't brush the area too vigorusly for a day or so to help it heal but do try and keep it clean. AND GO TO THE DENTIST!!!

Apply pressure with guaze for a few hours and don't remove it during that time. And avoid drinking hot liquids for a bit.

It should stop on its own or you can hold ice on your gums.
