When you bring out the cleaning equipment for your house clean in Hackney, there is usually one area that you forget to tackle and that’s the bedding and mattress. Your bed is host to a lot of dirt and dust as well as the odd biscuit crumbs. To keep everything clean and hygienic, you need to clean everything periodically especially if you or someone in your house suffers from allergies.

1)    Vacuum off the dust
The first thing you need to do is to make sure that all the dust and other grime is cleaned away from your matresses in Hackney, E5. Using a vacuum cleaner is a great way to ensure that you are able to get out all the dust and other particles such as dead skin and dust mites. You want to take your time when vacuuming so that you can get as much of the mites out as you can. It is also a good idea to turn the mattress over and do the other side as well. When you have sucked up all those tiny dust mites, it’s time for the next trick.

2)    Cleaning stains
When it comes to stains, most mattresses will have a few, especially children’s ones. There are a couple of tricks that you can use in your home in the E8 area to help clean off the stains and bring back the clean look to your mattress. You can make an upholstery cleaning solution with a mixture or hydrogen peroxide, soap and baking soda. If you mix them into a spray bottle and use it to treat the stains, you can then wipe off the residue and hopefully the stain as well. Another option is using an enzyme cleaner to break down the stain and clear up any odour as well. The third option is making a paste with lemon juice and salt. You can then apply the mixture onto the stains and let it stay on there for a good hour. Once you have done that, you can wipe it off with a towel and hopefully it will have absorbed the stain.

3)    Taking the odour out
You can use deodorising sprays to remove any leftover smells that remain after the cleaning process, but there are other ways to do it. If you want to do things using fewer chemicals, then try sprinkling baking soda over the surface of the mattress. Make sure you cover the whole area well, and let it stay on there for a couple of hours if you can. The baking soda will absorb any odours and any cleaning liquid still left behind. After leaving it a while, use the vacuum cleaner to suck up all the baking soda. Remember to make sure you get all the baking soda off including in the stitching. Now you will hopefully have a nice clean and odour-free mattress in your home in E9, if not, you can always repeat the process.

4)    Keep it light and airy
Once the mattress is clean and smelling great, don’t be quick to throw the cover back on. Leave the mattress to air on the bed, with the window open if weather permits. This will allow the fresh air to really help freshen your mattress.

5)    Alternatives
If you don’t want to go through the whole process of cleaning your mattress in Hackney, then you can call in professional cleaners. There are many cleaning services that will be able to clean your mattress quickly and easily. Some of the cleaning agencies use chemical-free ways to clean your furniture for those with allergies, so it is a viable option.
