You need to clean your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/blog\/how-to-clean-a-mattress\/\">mattress <\/a>every 6 months to remove dust mites and skin cells.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Begin cleaning your mattress by stripping you bed linen and hoovering the surface to remove any dirt and dust. Don\u2019t forget to hoover both sides of your mattress and around the corners- dust and dirt can linger in these areas.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After hoovering your mattress, freshen it up by sprinkling <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/blog\/how-to-remove-stains-with-baking-soda\/\">baking soda<\/a> over it. Sprinkle a generous amount over the whole of your mattress, using a soft brush or cloth to evenly spread it out. Leave it to set for 10-30 minutes before hoovering it up. This will help remove any lingering odours and body fluids from your mattress and leave it looking, and smelling, fresh.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After removing the baking soda, leave your mattress to air out for a few hours before re-dressing your bed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\"
