Mattress Cleaning

You know that phrase “out of sight, out of mind”? Well, it applies to your mattress. Because your mattress is usually covered by sheets, comforters, pillows, quilts, dogs, clothes, people, etc. it isn’t necessarily the first item on your list of things to clean.

However, a typical used mattress may have anywhere from 100,000 to 10 million mites inside. Sanitizing your mattress is extremely important to help control allergy and asthma symptoms, as well as decontaminating the bed of germs, spores, bacteria, viruses, bedbugs, dust mites, and more. It is equally important to clean and sanitize the carpeting and furniture. 60 percent of dust mites and other pathogens are found in the mattress, 20 percent in the furniture, and 20 percent in the carpet.

Treating all these areas is the only way you are going to have a substantial effect in eliminating these contaminants and the suffering that goes along with them.
