Cleaning a Mattress is an often overlooked but necessary task. Alternating the use of sides of a mattress by flipping it over isn’t really a viable option anymore.  Most beds made today are useable on one side only.  And while hiding under the blankets might be the right solution to life’s problems, simply covering up your mattress with a sheet or blanket as  cleaning strategy can lead to health problems in life.  

Considering their high volume of daily use (on average 8hrs a day)  mattresses are magnets for mites, and allergens and is a leading cause of poor air quality in the home.

Dust mites, dead skin and related allergens  

Dust mites are tiny microscopic relatives of the spider and live on mattresses, bedding, upholstered furniture, carpets, and curtains. These tiny creatures feed on the dead flakes of skin that people and pets shed daily and they thrive in warm and humid environments like your bed.  A typical person while asleep loses approximately half a litre of moisture over the course of an evening.  Combined with the fact that the human body sheds about 40,000 dead skin cells an HOUR, a mattresses makes for perfect mix for a mites meal. (That’s  YOU on the menu by the way!) *** And remember even with mites the universal law applies:  what goes in must come out, get the picture?

***Add in a healthy doses of sweat, urine, blood, mold, mildew and who-knows-what-the heck-else and you have a perfect recipe for YUCK!
