How to Clean Your Mattress (Cleaning Motivation) 

Sending love! 💜

I have ADD and find it helpful to have all the steps outlined for me so I work through them without getting distracted. Usually just getting started with moving leads to more cleaning and moving and I feel better because I’ve accomplished something.

Linguaphilionna Thank you so much. God bless you ❤️

Linda Cleary I’m also so bad to get distracted and not follow through.

Your not alone 💜 Sending love 💕

WAHT if it to big

@@exulqnsis1911 get a better one

It’s called a bedsheet

@@exulqnsis1911 I bought a zippered cover. Pain in the tooshie to put it on but with it. It has saved our new mattress many times. I got mine from Amazon and it was around $70+ but for the cost of a brand new king it was well worth it. The day they brought the mattress the cover went on it. It does make turning the mattress a bit of a pain but saving the mattress from urine (me) or my hubs upset stomach (💩). No one wants to sleep on that!

@@globalcitizenn no

Not if you clean it regularly :)

I was thinking the same thing!!

Weirdo

Wtf 😭

Well shiet

What are the best or most useful things and techniques you've learned so far?

I love this comment ❤️

Same here

Yes my second bedroom mattress was in storage for years. I was throwing it out. I got to it and vacuumed it 30 min. The attachment had white in it. I lavendar lysoled it until it was damp. Set 2 hrs. I added a nozzle to 70% alcohol and damp it. Let it sit. Vaccum it and added a mattress cover. Good as new. I couldnt believe it.

Exactly

I see people put their sheet right-over the mattress. Oh no! My Mom always impressed on us we place a mattress pad first! Sometimes an encasement then a pad... It helps absorb the sweat we off during the the night!! It doesn’t get washed EVERY time.. but quarterly. THEN goes the fitted sheet. Then the top sheet. My Home Ec Prof. showed us how to make a bed up w/ a person in the bed.& emphasized we should fold our linens to accomplish just that! Make it easier; Length wise!! It make it soo easy to find the center & equalize the drop of the sheet so both persons get enough sheet. I see people billow the top sheet in the air then try to determine the middle. Nope. Perfect every time if you lay the center of the sheet length wise down.. then flip open the sheet. Prestó! It’s perfect!! Also, I think hospital corners are not taught. It makes the bed look sooo nice & neat! I can’t sleep in a messy bed. I recall my niece getting bit by a spider that crawled in bed w/ her. I told her the true story about my friend who had a brown recluse fall off the ceiling onto her back& her rolling onto to it causing it to bite her! It was HORRIBLE! I tried go lance it, but the pain was too intense. I shared the details. My niece makes her bed up EVERY day!! She don’t want surprises EVER! Other bed story.. my sisters burglar alarm went off while she was out of town... I was watching the house so I went to meet the police and they “cleared” the house ( w/ their weapons drawn. They came Bd k to tell me the house was beautiful.. BUT.. u should check one room.. it “ Looked like it got tossed!” I went in and it was the same nueces room.... I told the Officer.. sorry... that’s not burgled .. it’s just a preteens room!! She’s messy !! You should see her room now! She has the BF over all has to be perfect!! Ha ha!! motivation!!?? 🤣

Thank you for your service

I wish I could set that level of boundaries and control. All I can do is hope my sheets are clean and nobody touched my bed

Exactly

Damn its like you didnt see the end where she says get a matress protector.

It's still good to clean your matress, I have 2 layers of protection on my bed, waterproof and quilted, and I still deodorize and let my matress air out at least once a month, whether I open all my windows or put the dehumidifier on in my room for a couple of hours. Don't just rely on covers, it still needs refreshing.

That's what I have. It's not crunchy either. It is bamboo and charcoal. But looks and feels like cloth.

Well yes, but those protectors dont let our bodies breathe, i find it very uncomfortable :(

poida Way ahead of you. Not my first mattress...

We love hearing this - thank you Nancy!!

You must definitely show him 😁👋👋👋

That's so cute.

😵🤯!!!

Water? You mean sweat! 😝

ME TOO! I cringed.

Cotton barrier cloth zippered big bag to enclose entire mattress and another one for the box spring. These can prevent dust mites and skin cells from entering the mattress, and you can wash the barrier cloth. On top of the barrier cloth bag, a good thick mattress pad, also washable. Goes a long way to keep things clean. I like you suggestions as well.

Thanks for watching Mariela!

Those are more work they mold easily make sure you’re airing it out often

You must’ve seen some shit in your time..

My mother use to work in the hotel industry, she gave me the same advice.

why toothbrush? please explain

@@lajksuskrajbser5137 they use it to scrub the toilet bowl

So brining your own blankets and covering them bed with them doesn’t work 😭😭😭

What a well timed video :)

Clean My Space like a year ago

I dont remember 😣

I have had a zip in mattress protector on it since day 1. But regularly clean the surrounding area as well as sheets... I didn’t see your links for the mattress protectors you like,which ones do you like? @cleanmyspace

😶😔

15 years

As a kid, we got mattresses from a hotel sale - LaQuinta. They had stickers on every edge, both sides marked with dates for rotation, and were only used for a year. I'd be freaked out to buy one now, but it was a great mattress.

Elissa Powell , I’m kinda glad to hear that the hotels actually change those mattresses every year. I really hope they continue with this practice for sanitary purposes

And if you have a waterproof mattress protector what need do you have to care about cleaning the mattress? None!

How do you keep it from molding ? I have a memory foam mattress that has mold 😭😭 I’m praying my warranty isn’t voided

@@Nikki3b0oxX If it's moldy you can't sleep on it! Mold in a home is no joke, regardless of type. It's hard to get rid of on flat surfaces, let alone porous ones. For the health of you and your family, please get rid of it! They need to be well ventilated. With ours, I don't even really make the bed that often to keep air flowing and it is on a slat style frame, not a box spring. Check with your manufacturer on what they cover, or how to remedy it, if possible. I have a Zinus green tea mattress from Amazon, it's awesome and cheaper than other brands out there. The reviews speak for themselves!

@@alainapotaduh I think I just bought one of those last night! Thanks for the confirmation that it was a good idea.

She made a video about how to clean cleaningtools, including vacuums. Just search RU-vid, it was realy helpfull.

Ok,Thanks, I thought I might have seen that and overlooked it at the time. I'll look again🙂

This just reminded me that I forgot to turn on the dryer 😂😂

Good question

Yeah, love juices. If your motel room carpet has crunchy spots, (not to mention the mattress,) you're in trouble. . . .eech.....!

I'm *that girl* too.

I actually take extra sheets and mattress covers with me.....I'm that girl 🙃

anye76 "LOVE JUICES" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
