While these mattresses can foster sound sleeping, they can quickly lose their supportiveness and comfort if not maintained well. With one third of our lives spent sleeping in our beds, dead skin cells, sweat and hair may seep through our sheets and accumulate on our mattresses as time goes by.

These vacuums are easier to handle compared to anything larger that might cause the mattress fabric to rip. Doing so will help vacuum up hair, dust, and any other small unwanted particles. We recommend vacuuming the surface of the mattress about once a week and also when you change your sheets. Keep in mind to vacuum the underside of your mattress as well every time you rotate it about once every 6 months. If you have a pet at home, use a vacuum specifically designed to pick up pet dandruff and hair. Be sure to also vacuum the hard to reach places during <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">mattress cleaning<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, such as the sides of the memory foam mattress and the top where it meets the headboard.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Removing stains and odours<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whatever the cause of stains or odours on your memory foam mattress, don\u2019t worry; there are ways to get them out so your mattress looks good as new. It is best to clean fresh stains quickly as the spot will lift more easily. However, if you weren\u2019t able to get to the spot in time, you can still lift the stain with a little more effort. Firstly, avoid using commercial cleaners that have strong chemicals such as ammonia or bleach in their ingredients list, as these chemicals can harm the memory foam. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use instead a homemade solution of 1 part mild detergent and 2 parts water mixed well in a spray bottle for <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/cleancare.com.sg\/sem\/services\/mattress-deep-cleaning\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">mattress cleaning<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Lightly spray the mixture on the mattress, only needing enough to lather the surface of the fabric. Spray on the stained area and scrub in a circular motion with a clean cloth until the stain comes out. The odour will also be eliminated along with the stain.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Use a mattress cover<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1644 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cleancare.com.sg\/sem\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/cleaning-service-inserting-mattress-protector.png\" alt=\"cleaning service inserting mattress protector\" width=\"1110\" height=\"474\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cleancare.com.sg\/sem\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/cleaning-service-inserting-mattress-protector.png 1110w, https:\/\/cleancare.com.sg\/sem\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/cleaning-service-inserting-mattress-protector-300x128.png 300w, https:\/\/cleancare.com.sg\/sem\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/cleaning-service-inserting-mattress-protector-1024x437.png 1024w, https:\/\/cleancare.com.sg\/sem\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/cleaning-service-inserting-mattress-protector-768x328.png 768w, https:\/\/cleancare.com.sg\/sem\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/cleaning-service-inserting-mattress-protector-585x250.png 585w, https:\/\/cleancare.com.sg\/sem\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/cleaning-service-inserting-mattress-protector-176x75.png 176w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1110px) 100vw, 1110px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While vacuuming and spot cleaning keeps your mattress clean, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mattressnerd.com\/reasons-you-need-a-mattress-protector\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">mattress protectors<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and covers will prevent damage and protect against things like dust mites, dust, pollen, and bed bugs.\u00a0 A good mattress cover can also make or break the lifespan of your foam mattress.
