Why vacuum the mattress and deprive it of mites when you are not an allergic? A cleaner bed will certainly not hurt you. Rather, you will sleep better!
Why is the mattress cleaning important?
Do you also like the feeling when you first lie down in purely disguised duvets? We learned to change the bedding, if not a week, at least once every fortnight. Pajamas and nightgowns are warm, soft and in all sorts of design, but what is hidden under the sheets? It is primarily a mattress that suffers from dirt. Do you take enough attention to it?
Probably you have ever heard or considered cleaning mattresses and regular maintenance. But do you clean the mattress regularly every week? In this post, the author explains why you should. You can find the video on the youtube channel DR Karan.

Do not forget the mattress!
In families of strong allergy sufferers and asthmatics, this is definitely not new and groundbreaking. The fact that they are in mites are usually found to be found very soon and the treatment, or rather suppress symptoms, then contribute not only pharmacies, but mainly deep cleaning and care for all housing fabrics, mattresses or toys in which mites accumulate.
Most of us do not belong to this risk group of people, but there is no reason why we should leave mattresses unnoticed. Their cleaning in an ordinary household does not include anything more than a proper vacuuming with a powerful HEPA filter appliance.
Why is the HEPA filter necessary? It is sufficiently gentle to capture even the eye of the imperceptible mites and their remnants. Specifically, the HEPA filter can remove 99.97 % of the 0.3 micrometer particles. This category also includes pollen or fungi and of course dust particles. HEPA filters are now common equipment, but it is also necessary to think about the replacement of filters every 6 to 12 months.
How to clean the mattress?
You can also use baking soda or baking powder for more thorough cleaning. Soda does not directly lose mites like pesticide, but it makes their lives in the mattress uncomfortable and also partially neutralizes allergens in the form of mites of feces and boxes. How to proceed?
- Sprinkle with a mattress and rub the powder with your hands on the entire surface, including folds in the corners and on the regions of the mattress.
- Leave the soda for at least 15 to 30 minutes. It absorbs excess moisture and creates inappropriate mites environment.
- Thoroughly with a vacuum cleaner, suck all the soda. Use a special flat extension designed to help better remove all dirt.
- Repeat the process every week, or provide a mattress with a protector or special densely woven sheet that reduces the occurrence of mites.
