Will blood stains transfer to other clothes in the wash?


Usually not if the blood stain is old and has already dried into the fabric. Fresh blood is a different story, however. If heavily stained items are washed immediately, some transfer can occur, especially in warm water. For best results, treat blood stains separately with cold water before adding the garment to a regular load.
