will the peroxide kill the DNA as well?

I heard putting peroxide on it might help, may not remove it though

Blood Out of Clothes
Fresh blood is an easy stain to get out. The key is to keep the stain wet, rinse out under the tap in cold water. If you have successfully rinsed the stain just launder as usual in cold water.
If the stain is old soak in cool salt water for a long time (hours) and rinse thoroughly. Soak again in water with a some ammonia. Launder as above. Since blood is organic you can try soaking in an enzyme solution for half an hour to an hour. As a last resort bleach if the clothes are white, or use a color safe bleach. Heat will set this stain.
Always test a small area with any solution you are going to use on the clothes to test for color fastness and damage etc.

First rinse the blood stain in cold water and then take a bar of soap any soap will work and rub the area with soap and water. If you cant remove the stain completely soak in peroxide it will remove it completely. Good Luck!!

peroxide will get the stain out. If you are worried about the DNA, I don't know, but if the fabric is white, you can use bleach. Good soap will kill most anything.

If it's a small one, like from pricking your finger while sewing a button on, you can usually get it out by (ewww) spitting on it. Your saliva will remove blood stains that are yours. For a larger one, try peroxide.

The easiest way would've been to just not kill someone to begin with..
LOL, seriously though, I heard that pouring coke on it works really well, never had the chance to try it though. My solution for any kind of stain is rubbing it with soap and water.

If you use Proxide it will remove the blood stain but you'll have to use bleach to remove the DNA. I won't ask y you want to know that.

proxide can also remove color from many fabrics.
Full strength liquid laundry detergent, brush into fabric, wait 5 minutes, then wash with regular load. If still in, repeat prior to using dryer which will set the stain.

try hydrogen peroxide. it works very well and is sold in bottles at the drug store or supermarket near where they sell rubbing alcohol. just pour it on and it will bubble as it removes the blood. after the blood is gone, rinse well. wash and rinse.

Presoak with Dawn Oxy dishwashing liquid. This stuff even removes old grease stains.
