Clean Your Mattress with Baking Soda

Mar 3 by 1 Comment

Cleaning isn’t just for spring any more! I have a weird fetish about deep cleaning and am always looking for new ways to get the job done. My new favorite is cleaning my mattress with baking soda. Say goodbye to all of those nasty dust mites and flaky skin cells. Gross huh! I usually clean my mattress once a month to keep it fresh and clean. This is how:

Remove your bedding completely and place in the washer. Sprinkle the entire box of baking soda evenly over your mattress. Let it penetrate and really soak in for about 30 minutes, absorbing any smells or oils that may be lingering. Vacuum with a handheld attachment throughly. Viola! You have a much cleaner mattress. Works like magic!
