Mattress Matters

People don't usually think about the care and cleaning of their mattress but, considering you spend six, eight or even more hours with it every day… you should take good care of it.
 
Some people notice that in a little amount of time, a year or two, they are more susceptible to suffer from allergies and other conditions than previously. Its possible a dirty mattress could be the culprit.
 
This is not saying there are issues with anyone’s hygiene. Mattresses are like any other surface and they need regular cleaning. Nobody thinks about the actual mattress since they put sheets on a regular basis.
 
Dust mites (which are in every bed), their fecal matter, dead skin cells and more all add up over time and can cause a lot of health issues.
 
Here are the steps you can take to keep your mattress clean and healthy:
 

1. Change the bedding on a regularly
2. Use a mattress cover to keep contaminants out of the mattress
3. Vacuum the top and bottom of your mattress, about four times a year

 
Those are pretty basic steps, but are we doing them? If not, start now. You will have a healthier sleeping environment that not only gives you peace of mind, but also relief from some allergic reactions and other issues that you may have been suffering from but didn’t know the source.
 
Don’t forget, there are professional service companies that can periodically give your mattress a deep cleaning. Just as with all your carpet cleaning and furniture cleaning needs, call Mae's Carpet Cleaning.
 
Then you can do what everyone wants: Get a good night’s sleep!
