The Gross Truth About Your Mattress (And How to Fix It)

Your mattress may look clean, but inside, it’s a breeding ground for pests and allergens. Over time, dust mites, bed bugs, bacteria, and mold settle in, affecting your sleep and health. If you’ve been waking up with unexplained bites, allergy symptoms, or a musty odor in your bedroom, your mattress may be to blame.

What’s Hiding in Your Mattress?

🦠 Dust Mites – These microscopic creatures feed on dead skin cells and trigger allergies. A single mattress can contain millions of them, leading to sneezing, congestion, and itchy eyes.

🛏️ Bed Bugs – These blood-feeding pests hide deep in mattress seams and come out at night to bite. A single pregnant bed bug can start an infestation in weeks. Their eggs stick to fabric fibers, making them hard to eliminate without proper treatment.

Bacteria & Mold – Sweat, spills, and humidity create the perfect conditions for mold and bacteria to thrive, leading to odors, respiratory issues, and skin irritation.

🐶 Pet Dander & Allergens – If your pet sleeps on your bed, their fur, dander, and dirt add to the mix, worsening allergies and asthma symptoms.

How to Deep Clean Your Mattress (The Right Way)

Cleaning your sheets isn’t enough. Your mattress itself needs regular care to stay fresh and pest-free.

1. Strip Your Bed & Wash Bedding Properly

✔ Wash sheets, blankets, and pillowcases in hot water (120°F or higher).
✔ Add Premo Guard Laundry Additive to kill dust mites and bed bugs.

2. Vacuum Your Mattress Thoroughly

Use a vacuum with a HEPA filter to remove dead skin cells, dust, and pest droppings. Focus on seams and crevices, where bed bugs and mites hide.

3. Apply Premo Guard Bed Bug & Mite Killer

Even after vacuuming, hidden pests and eggs remain. Premo Guard Bed Bug & Mite Killer is an all-natural spray that kills bed bugs, mites, and their eggs on contact.

🔹 How to Apply It:
1️⃣ Lightly spray the entire mattress surface, focusing on seams and cracks.
2️⃣ Allow the mattress to fully dry before putting sheets back on.
3️⃣ Repeat every 1-2 months for continued protection.

4. Air Out Your Mattress

Letting your mattress sit in sunlight helps kill bacteria and mold naturally. If that’s not an option, open windows and use a fan for ventilation.

5. Use a Mattress Encasement

A bed bug-proof mattress protector blocks pests and allergens from settling inside. Look for one that is tightly woven and breathable.
