Blood in vehicles ??

[NoCams]

Tech Spray 1622 will take stains out of carpet for you. I sell this product to Mercedes, Honda, Nissan, VW,  etc, etc for any stains during manufacturing. Dries in seconds. Just make sure you do not get any overspray on any of your plastic, it will take the gloss / shine off of it. Use a microfiber towel to scrub with. If you are around any plastic simply saturate the microfiber towel instead of the carpet and quickly scrub the stain out before the 1622 evaporates. You can buy 1622 at Grainger Supply nationwide.

I drive a Chevy Tahoe and we use a hitch hauler for hauling our deer so no worries about any stains inside.....

Selfbow- you can quarter an animal and still leave the proof of sex.  No problem with that

Check out the Bag-A-Buck Game bag.I got one last year and used it this year.I did get a little bit of leakage but I did not lace it up and close it up properly before leaving.It may or may not have leaked some in route.I wont say it is 100 percent guaranteed not to leak due to that.I put 4 bags of ice in with my buck when I left on the trip home and drove over 70 miles on curvy roads.That may have contributed and temps were warm so the ice was melting.I actually placed the buck inside my camper instead of my SUV and the camper floor is linoleum so no real harm done.Some leakage occurred when unloading as I had to unload the deer by myself.They have a website so you can check it out and decide for yourself.

This is my first year in 20 years without a truck of my own.  After hauling a doe on a tarp in the VW TDI wagon I will have a better plan next time. I was lucky no mess this time. I think the jet sled looks real handy and I've seen them for $38.00, not that bad.

50% clear amonia and 50% water...amonia will disapate after 20 minutes...will not leave a sticky residue left by normal carper cleaner..a life long carpet dry cleaner told me that trick

i had a hitch rack on my jeep a few years ago and they work great. i have used some wesleys cleaner in the past for some real bad carpet stains and it worker great, dont know about the blood though  it might work

[kuch]

I'd borrow my buddy's vehicle to haul it in

[Jeff Strubberg]

There are lots of floor mats for the rear of an SUV that are rubber with a lip all the way around to keep the mess in.  

I've used one in the back of my Jeep for a couple years now.  Just take it out afterwards and blast it off with the garden hose.

I use a vinyl body bag I got from work, works great.You can find them on the net. I also use mine to drag the deer out,nothing gets caught on it and it glides across the ground easily(keeps the deer cleaner to.And an added trick in warm weather you can hang the deer and put the bag over the deer and add a block of dry ice to the bottom, and its a cooler.

It's Clear Ammonia & Peroxide....

50% Clear Ammonia & 50% Peroxide - 20 or 30 volume from Sally's Beauty Supply-(Not the stuff in the brown bottle from CVS.)- it makes an Oxidizer that will remove the stain.

Put into a hand sprayer, spray onto the stain, let dwell for 5 minutes, then blot with a white towel. Do not rub or scrub. The residue will be wicked back into the white towel.

The mixture is only good for about 15 minutes once mixed, so throw out what you don't use.

My wife & I clean carpets & rugs for subsistence.

Sell your SUV and get another pickup.

I have a weathertech cargo tray in my LX470....but it does not protect the tail gate when loading or unloading...and no matter how many tarps or plastic rolls I take to protect it....I always get blood on it.  I stopped cleaning it due to our long and liberal season here in southeast....just get it detailed once a year after season is over to remove blood.

If I had a new vehicle and not one 13 years old set up for offroading...I would make a frame and tie a tarp with sides about one foot tall to fit in back and that lets the remainder of tarp drap over tailgate with room to spare.  

Loading a mature buck in the back of SUV is not joke....twice I have had to tie up one end and then the other to get it loaded since i hunt alone. I have one of the rear hitch platforms but it stays so warm here I wanted less time exposed to heat...but guess a bag of ice in body like I did years ago would work and then wrap up like a present in tarp to keep motorist from freaking out.

many years ago I had one on top of my Cherokee with bag of ice in cavity as my German Shorthair and daughters were in back.....flashing blue lights pull me over....asked what was in the tarp on roof and whether my daughters knew where their mommy was.

it appears a blood clot flew out of tarp and hit his windshield and he thought I was up to no good with guns, shovels, bloody knives, etc...hahahaha

was good laugh just glad he did not draw down on me...

Wanna get a laugh??

Drive up to the check in station haulin a doe in a BMW.

I am amazed the tote method hasn’t been mentioned.

This is how we do it in Montana:

Take this:

 

Plus one of these

 


Fits in the back seat of the wife’s Park Avenue without getting blood anywhere in the vehicle.  That is how that particular buck was transported.  One note, the car is the wife’s, if it wasn’t fool proof there isn’t any way in HECK I would even think of trying it.  The really good thing is the totes have handles on both ends that help with the lifting.  You don't have to bear hug the bloody deer to lift it into the vehicle.  They cost between 7 -12 bucks depending if they are on sale and last a long time I have used this one for seven or eight years.  I have a Ford F 250 with the high tailgate, so lifting a floppy deer 3-4 feet isn’t always easy, using the tote solved all my problems.  Lay the tote on its side and push the deer in back first with the butt against one end then roll the tote up.  It’s amazing how the deer just settles in, and then you push the head on to its chest.  With nice rack you might have to stick the front legs behind the antlers to keep the head from hang over the end of the tote.  Oh ya, remember lift with your legs some of those deer can get big.  I don’t transport any major distance using this method because it slows down cooling the meat.


Otto, I can relate, they give you funny looks don’t they.  In my case it was a Mazda RX7 and an entire elk pulling into the check station…but that should be a thread in itself.

BMW! LOL...one time I went hunting and was between trucks....wife had the nice car and I had a beater oldsmobile....went on a sunday afternoon and got a little buck.  Field dressed...placed in trunk and headed on hour drive home to drop off at processor.

called and told wife I was on way home early and if got done would meet her at church...she said to stop by church on the way if I dont get there in time anyhow...so I did....then daughters wanted to look at deer so there i was opening trunk in church parking lot on Sunday night to show a deer to everyone....should have seen the looks especially since I missed church because it took me so long to track deer, dress and load deer and then drive the hour back to Sumter. LOL

When I'm hunting with my Ford Expedition I use a hitch haul rack.  They work perfectly!  If I'm hunting with our van, I use a Jet Sled.  Very slick way of keeping the inside of a vehicle clean.

I had that problem in a ford van i had, the carpet came clean enough but the blood smelling like a gut pile never did get that out till i replaced the carpet and the pad underneath, probably could have reused the carpet as the horrible smell was in the pad, but already had the  new carpet by the time i figured it out
