I just had a call from a customer who has had a burst vein. She has bled in her bedroom, bathroom and hall. Her brother has had a go with bicarbonate of soda with cold water and she has had a go with soap and water which is a pain, and the carpets wool. I was considering having a go with some enzymes or biological washing powder or prostain. Any other ideas how to tackle this are welcome. 

Thanks
Rob

Rob, just  do a google for a local pro carpet cleaner near you, he will be able to deal with this for you.

[Robin Ray]

Hi Paul,

Thank You for you enlightening response, how would you deal with this?

 or is that how you tackle all your jobs?

Enzall loves blood 

Be warned, you might get wick back.

[Tony Rowley]

Robin sometimes they can't help themselves!!!!

I have used stain pro to good effect but as Tony just mentioned wick back can be a problem, I always charge so I may have to go back again and tell them there is no additional charge for a return visit if the case arises.

Hope that's a bit more helpful.

Thanks Carpet Dawg and Tony for you helpfull answers. 

[Paul Moss]

Wick back should never be a problem if the blood removal has been dealt with correctly in the first place. If your just doing straight  top extraction then your always going to get wick back and should charge accordingly. However if you are called out for BLOOD REMOVAL, including sanitization ( basically doing it professionally) then thats what you should be doing and charging for.

from the prochem web site
Take safety precautions to avoid infection or contamination. Apply Stain Pro and blot. Apply Rust Remover, wait 2-5 minutes and blot. Allow to react 5 to 15 minutes. Rinse thoroughly with water and blot until dry. It may be necessary to apply a solution of 30ml of Oxibrite per litre of water (subject to colour test).
If you need any assistance give me a call, as i see you are in Devon.
cheers

i must get a OAP call once a month to remove blood after a lower limb cut, I've never had to resort to such an extensive procedure, for prochem to offer such advice is wrong without giving the advice that at each stage repeat....then if the blood is still evident  proceed to the next step. I can see someone trying Stainpro then going straight to rust remover without actually trying stainpro again.

I've got blood out on some carpets going straight in with just a freshwater rinse

Paul Moss says your not a pro because that's not the correct way, althought being his usual helpful self he didn't tell Robin what the correct way was/is.

As mike cold water rinse you can also use salt with the cold water, if you can get the carpet up see if its gone to the underlay if blood has spilt heavy it can be 4x the size on the underlay.

FOLLOW ALL H&S PROCEDURES]  :
Charge for sanitising the area and your machine and hoses ect.

Best way i have found not to get wick back use a water claw.

The prochem route with stain pro is good you normally find rust remover to work well if the stain is old.

Have a nice Xmas 

[Jamie Pearson]

Thanks Carpet Dawg and Tony for you helpfull answers. 

Works best if you mix it up as normal then allow it to cool before applying.

[Tony Rowley]

Merry Xmas to you too.
