Keep the temperature in your bedroom relatively cool at night. This will help you sleep better and sweat less thus your bed will be cleaner. Second, change the bedding sheets regularly &#8211; once every week. The amount of sweat and body grease transferring to your mattress will be significantly lower. Last but not least, vacuum the mattress thoroughly at least once a month, ideally using a mattress vacuum. A regular vacuum cleaner will do if you don\u2019t have one, especially if you have an attachment for upholstery.<\/p>\n<p>Read also: <a href=\"https:\/\/cleanercleaner.co.uk\/blog\/keep-furniture-carpets-clean-after-professional-cleaning\/\">How to Keep Your Furniture and Carpets Clean All Year Long<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Q_How_Can_I_Get_Rid_of_These_Build-up_Stains\"><\/span><b>Q: How Can I Get Rid of These Build-up Stains?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A: Most tips on the internet include using a steam cleaner. However, domestic steam cleaners will only set the stains deeper and won\u2019t solve your problem. The best you can do to remove sweat and body grease stains is to hire a professional cleaning company. They will perform the hot water extraction procedure, also referred to as steam cleaning. The professional method ensures deep cleaning and sanitisation, provided the cleaners are experienced and use an appropriate cleaning solution.<\/p>\n<p>Read also: <a href=\"https:\/\/cleanercleaner.co.uk\/blog\/how-to-care-for-your-mattress-at-home\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"internal noopener\">How to Care for Your Mattress at Home<\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_35831\" style=\"width: 660px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-35831\" class=\"wp-image-35831 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/cleanercleaner.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mattress-before-and-after-650x650.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"650\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cleanercleaner.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mattress-before-and-after-650x650.jpeg 650w, https:\/\/cleanercleaner.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mattress-before-and-after-333x333.jpeg 333w, https:\/\/cleanercleaner.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mattress-before-and-after-201x201.jpeg 201w, https:\/\/cleanercleaner.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mattress-before-and-after-768x768.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/cleanercleaner.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mattress-before-and-after.jpeg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-35831\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A typical example of sweat and body grease staining on a mattress (left) and after professional cleaning (right).<\/p><\/div>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Q_How_Often_I_Should_Clean_My_Mattress_and_What_Are_the_Best_Ways_to_Do_It\"><\/span><b>Q: How Often I Should Clean My Mattress, and What Are the Best Ways to Do It?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A: As we mentioned before, vacuuming your mattress once a month is a must. Another thing you can do to keep the mattress in good condition is to turn it over once a month, if it is double-sided, of course. Investing in a mattress topper is also an excellent way to prevent hair, dust and dirt from getting onto the mattress. Choose a topper that\u2019s not too thick and can be popped in the washing machine whenever it needs cleaning. That will reduce the need for hiring professionals to clean your mattress and save you money. Still, aim to book professional mattress cleaning at least twice a year for a healthier bedding.<\/p>\n<p>Check also: <a href=\"https:\/\/cleanercleaner.co.uk\/blog\/how-to-remove-urine-from-your-carpet-and-get-rid-of-the-urine-smell\/\">How to Remove Urine Stains From Your Carpet and Get Rid of the Urine Smell<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Q_What_Are_the_Mattress_Stains_That_Require_Professional_Cleaning\"><\/span><b>Q: What Are the Mattress Stains That Require Professional Cleaning?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A: We are most often being called out to deal with stains from urine, blood, coffee, tea, and red wine. None of these can be removed by an inexperienced person using domestic stain removal products. Actually, stains that people attempted to clean before calling us are almost impossible to remove. In these cases, the initial dirt was treated with one and usually more products, which created a reaction, resulting in a complex substance set into the fibres.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Read also: <a class=\"row-title\" href=\"https:\/\/cleanercleaner.co.uk\/wp-admin\/post.php?post=8950&amp;action=edit\" aria-label=\"\u201cMattress Cleaning With Caution And Diligence\u201d (Edit)\">Mattress Cleaning With Caution And Diligence<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Q_What_Mattress_Fabric_Should_I_Choose_For_Easy_Cleaning_and_Maintenance\"><\/span><b>Q: What Mattress Fabric Should I Choose For Easy Cleaning and Maintenance?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A: The fabric of many mattresses nowadays is made of viscose, but we don\u2019t recommend this fabric at all! This man-made fibre comes from the pulp of the eucalyptus tree. It looks like satin, but it is virtually impossible to fully remove once stained. We would recommend getting a mattress covered with cotton fabric &#8211; it is easier to remove stains from cotton, and this natural fibre is more breathable and provides you with better sleep.<\/p>\n<p>You might also like: <a href=\"https:\/\/cleanercleaner.co.uk\/blog\/learn-upholstery-label-abbreviations-buying-new-sofa\/\">Decode Upholstery Labels and Choose the Best Sofa for Your Needs<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well, it may be a cliche, but it\u2019s true &#8211; we spend around 1\/3 of our life in bed, so getting a high-quality mattress is a must.
