Dust mites and allergens build up in every mattress. Here is how to keep yours fresh between professional cleans.
We spend around a third of our lives in bed, so it is no surprise that mattresses collect dead skin, sweat and dust mites over time. For most households a professional deep clean once or twice a year keeps a mattress hygienic, and more often if someone in the home has allergies.
- Air the bed for a few minutes every morning before making it.
- Use a washable mattress protector and wash it regularly.
- Vacuum the mattress surface every few weeks.
- Rotate the mattress every few months so it wears evenly.
