In order for the sleeping place to give itsthe owner of a sound and healthy sleep, it is necessary to regularly maintain its cleanliness. And washing and changing bed linen alone will not do. After all, easily overcoming layers of bedspreads, blankets and mattress pads, dust and debris get on the mattress, penetrate the pores of its textile cover and deep into the filler. As a result, a favorable environment is formed for the reproduction of bacteria and small parasites, whose bites cause severe allergies even in those who are not initially predisposed to it. Such "cohabitants" can cause particular concern for children, since thin and delicate children's skin is the most "appetizing" for them. So, how to properly clean a child's mattress so that it does not become a cause of various diseases and a "home" for ticks?
Let's start cleaning the baby mattress
To keep your mattress cleanHygienists recommend cleaning it at least once every six months. More stringent requirements are imposed on the products on a child's bed - they must be cleaned every month and a half. And this, however, is not surprising, because the mattress in the child's room absorbs not only dust, dirt and secretions of the sebaceous and sweat glands, but often children's "embarrassments", as well as tea, juice, ink, paints and other consequences of children's creativity. Therefore, if you, as a caring mother, value the health of your child - devote 30-40 minutes to cleaning the child's mattress on the day of general cleaning of the apartment.
- First, the mattress needs to be vacuumed.A vacuum cleaner brush attachment is perfect for this purpose. Install it and thoroughly go over the entire surface of the mattress, then turn the product over to the other side and repeat the procedure. Don't forget about the side parts - they also need to be thoroughly cleaned.
- After removing the mattress from small litter on the surface,it's time to start wet cleaning. To do this, take a soft sponge and dilute in a pelvis or bucket a specialized cleaning agent so that a thick foam is obtained. Take it on a sponge and as carefully as possible rub it into the mattress. If there are stains or stains on the product - apply a lot of foam on this place and leave it for a while, so that the stains "leave" under its influence. Repeat the procedure on the other side of the product, and do not forget about the side parts.
- For wet cleaning, use only foam, nottake the sponge with water. Otherwise, instead of getting rid of stains, you risk increasing their number, as water leaves stains, from which it is very difficult to get rid of.
- After completing the cleaning procedure, give the mattress asshould dry up - put it on the edge and open the windows. Leave the product in this position for a couple of hours, and then brush off any remaining detergent with a stiff brush or a dry sponge.
- The final stage of cleaning the mattress is steaming. If the steaming function is not provided for in your iron, regular ironing is quite a worthy substitute. Walk through the iron on the entire surface of the product on each side of it. Thermal treatment will get rid of microorganisms, "settled" in the mattress, as they die under the influence of high temperature. For the same reason, bed and underwear, blankets and pillows after washing also need to be stripped before use.
And finally, the main rule.Any liquid spilled on the bed must be removed immediately! The deeper the dirt penetrates into the structure of the product, the more difficult it will be to remove. If your mattress has been “suffering” stains that have not been removed in time for many years, but you want to return it to its original appearance, then you will need professional help.
