1. Do not tear the packaging film when using a new mattress
Newly bought mattresses are usually covered with a packaging film in order to prevent contamination during transportation. Many consumers feel that “the mattress that was bought at a high price would be a shame if it gets soiled”, “wrapped with packaging film not only prevents the breeding of mites, but also prevents moisture and moisture.”… In fact, the mattress is covered with packaging film. On the contrary, it is not breathable, and it is more prone to dampness, mildew, and even smelly.
Countermeasures: Before using the mattress, tear off the packaging film and place the mattress in a ventilated place for a period of time to ventilate the inside of the mattress and keep it dry. In addition, if you have used a mattress for a period of time, you can also put the mattress upright and blow it with an electric fan. In addition, it can be equipped with a dehumidifier to let the mattress breathe fresh air occasionally.
2, sleep directly on the “naked” mat
Some people sleep directly on the mattress in order to save the trouble of laying and washing bed sheets. As everyone knows, this will make the body lose about 500ml of water per night during sleep, and about 1.5 million dander cells metabolized every day, are directly “absorbed” by the mattress, and will penetrate into the mattress from the outside to the inside over time. , Polluting the mattress makes it a breeding ground for mites and bacteria.
Countermeasures: Before putting on fresh and soft sheets, you can put a protective pad on the mattress, which can not only protect the mattress, but also increase the comfort.
3. Sheets and blankets are used as sheets
Use the sheets and blankets that are not in use at home as bed sheets. Basically, every family has done it before. After all, it is convenient and saves money. In fact, this method is not proper. One sheet or blanket is thicker than bed sheets, and sleeping on it is more stuffy. Second, when sheets and blankets are used as sheets, it is easier to “pilling” or causing fluff and “staining”. “Mattress.
Countermeasures: Whether using bed skirts, protective cushions, bed covers or sheets, they are all to protect the mattress. The bed sheet is not only a spacer between the mattress and the human body, it can also protect the mattress from being directly soiled to a certain extent.

4, the mattress will not turn over after long-term use
Spring mattresses have a characteristic. If you sleep on one side, the mattress is prone to unevenness. It is easier to lose support because of the continuous force on the point of force. If you sleep in one position for a long time, the spring and quilting layer at the stress point will be more severely worn. This will not only affect the feeling of sleep in use, but also affect the service life.
Countermeasure: Regularly replace the left and right sides of the mattress. If it is a double-sided mattress, replace the front and back sides. The frequency of replacement is best to be reversed every 2-3 months, which is conducive to uniform stress on the mattress and prevents local collapse.
5. Never clean the mattress
One night “2 million mites sleep with you” is not alarmist, after all, one mites can become 300 in 3 months. Especially on the mattress that has not been cleaned for a long time, or there are children’s urine, spilled beverages, and side leakage of aunt’s stains, etc., which provide favorable conditions for the breeding of bacteria and mites.
Countermeasure: Every time you replace the sheets, you can take a vacuum cleaner dedicated to the mattress to do a cleaning process. If you accidentally get the mattress wet, you can use a towel or paper towel to absorb the moisture first and then blow it dry with a blower. If possible, you can also ask a professional de-mite team to do regular de-mite cleaning.
