To clean the mattress, you can do it the following way. The effect will surprise you.

After a period of use, the mattress will accumulate a lot of dirt, odors... creating an unpleasant smell and also becoming an ideal environment for bacteria to grow. Changing the bed sheets and mattress covers regularly is necessary. However, the mattress itself is very difficult to clean thoroughly. Many people take the mattress outside to dry in the sun to kill bacteria. This method is effective but cannot remove all the dirt on the mattress.

To clean the mattress at home, you can apply the method below.

Change mattress covers regularly

To ensure the mattress is always kept clean, you need to regularly change the mattress cover, bed sheet, pillowcase, blanket cover...

Cushion surface treatment

Every time you change the mattress cover, use a vacuum cleaner to suck up all the dirt on the surface as well as the grooves, crevices, and seams on the mattress.

For normal stains on the mattress surface, you can dilute the dishwashing liquid solution with clean water and put it in a spray bottle. Spray directly onto the stains on the mattress and wait at least 5-10 minutes. Then, use a clean cloth to wipe the stains several times to absorb all the excess solution as well as remove the stains.

You can also use hydrogen peroxide to clean stubborn stains on the mattress.

If you don't have a vacuum cleaner, you can prepare a dust brush to sweep away the dirt on the mattress surface. However, a vacuum cleaner will clean better and also require less effort.

Use baking soda to clean and deodorize mattresses.

Baking soda has the ability to absorb moisture and deodorize very well. You can sprinkle baking soda on the entire surface of the mattress. Leave it like that for a few hours or overnight, the baking soda will work to absorb moisture, absorb dirt and deodorize the mattress.

Then, use a vacuum cleaner to suck up all the baking soda that has been spread on the mattress.

Don't forget to turn the mattress over and perform the same cleaning process.
