8. Mattresses
We change our bed-sheets frequently, but surprisingly when it comes to cleaning our mattresses, we often ignore it. We forget that our mattress is home to everything, be it our dead skin cells, dust mites, food particles and what not. You must clean your mattress once in a month. This is how you should clean your mattress: Use your vacuum to clean it. You can also sprinkle some baking soda over it and after leaving it for a couple of hours, vacuum it again. If vacuuming your mattress is not possible, keep your mattresses under sunlight for a few hours. This will help in eliminating bacteria and keeping your mattress clean.
