Tips on cleaning your mattress by the Best and Most Thorough Residential House Cleaning and Maid Service in Winnetka, IL. You spend about 1/3 of our lives sleeping. It stands to reason, therefore, that our mattresses should be periodically cleaned and sanitized. Below are some steps to clean your mattress, says the Most Thorough Residential House Cleaning and Maid Service in Winnetka, IL., Dialamaidusa.
- The first step in cleaning your mattress is to remove all the lines from the bed. Sheets, pillow cases and mattress coverings. Toss those items into your washing machine and wash on the hottest temperature possible with your usual laundry detergent. Dry them on the highest heat setting as well. This will eliminate dust mites and bacteria, says the Premier Residential House Cleaning and Maid Service in Winnetka, IL., Dialamaidusa.
- Vacuum every corner of your mattress. Vacuum up all the crumbs, dead skin cells, pet fir, dust and other debris. Use different attachments to get into the corners, along the mattress piping and other hard to reach places, says the Premier Residential House Cleaning and Maid Service in Winnetka, IL., Dialamaidusa.
- Next, go after any stains. To make a mattress safe stain remover, combine 2 tablespoons of hydrogen peroxide and 1 tablespoon dish soap in a small bowl. Gently mix the solution until the suds are formed. Then, dip an old toothbrush into the suds and gently scrub any stained areas of the mattress in a circular motion. Rinse off with a damp cloth. If there are pet stains, you’ll need a bit stronger solution. Use a commercial grade, enzyme cleaner. Do not spray directly onto your mattress. Spray onto a rag, then gently blot the stain until it’s well saturated. Wait 15 minutes. Then blot the stain again with a clean, damp, cloth.
- Once you’re done spot cleaning, sprinkle baking soda on your mattress and let it sit for about 30 minutes. The baking soda will absorb lingering odors and help dry up any wetness from your spot cleaning. Vacuum up the baking soda, along with the smell, stains and moisture that it’s absorbed, says the Best Residential House Cleaning and Maid Service in Winnetka, IL., Dialamaidusa.
Once the mattress is completely vacuumed, air dry for at least an hour to ensure it’s completely dry. Open the drapes or blinds and let the sunlight hit the mattress. The ultraviolet rays will sap any leftover bacteria odors and molds, proclaims the Premier Residential House Cleaning and Maid Service in Winnetka, IL., Dialamaidusa.
