The first step is to vacuum the mattress to remove the debris, dirt, and bacteria that have accumulated over time. A clean upholstery attachment is used to ensure that no new contaminants are deposited again in the mattress.

Visible stains and dirt aren’t the only reason to clean a mattress. Since it’s one of the most used items in the house, it’s bound to smell a lot. Just like how you develop body odor if you don’t wash too thoroughly, your mattress too will start developing odors caused by sweat, dirt, and the chemical reactions of bacteria feeding on dead skin cells. Professional cleaners will deodorize to neutralize the foul odor and address the pesky insects like bed mites that might be living in your mattress.

This step is an integral part of mattress cleaning since it helps to eliminate mites and bacteria that feed on the leftover food and dead skin cells. As mentioned, over time, mattresses can get stain marks from sweat, vomit, and other bodily fluids. When not deep cleaned immediately, it can seep through the mattress, making it harder to remove. Plus, the marks are just unsightly.

Be sure to ask your mattress cleaner to opt for a chemical-free dry cleaning method. Fantastic Cleaners also offers this service. This ensures that molds and bacteria are removed entirely, leaving your mattress fresh and clean. For an extra precautionary step, you can also have your mattress steam cleaned. This is extremely helpful especially if you or other family members suffer from allergy. Not only does it thoroughly sanitize the inside of the mattress, but also prolongs its life.
