The best home remedy to control bleeding is to directly compress the wound, using gauze or a clean cloth and apply a crushed ice pack over it, as this will decrease blood flow by decreasing the caliber of blood vessels in the region.
However, if the wound is deep and blood continues to flow, it is important to call an ambulance or take the person to the hospital immediately.
A very old homemade solution to control bleeding, which should not be used, is to put a little bit of coffee powder or sugar on the wound. This is contraindicated as it may make it difficult to clean the wound or become infected and cause more suffering to the individual during the dressing.
