How Often Should You Clean This? (Bedroom Edition)
As providers of House Cleaning Services, we have seen enough surprises in the bedroom – dirty sheets, unclean mattresses, the list goes on! And along with the surprises, we have learned quite a lot from our cleaning experience.
The Greenforce Clean Team has listed off the things you have in your bedroom and the number of times you should be cleaning it. How often should you be cleaning the following?
- Sheets
Answer: Once every week
Many people claim that it is already good to wash their sheets and their pillowcase after two weeks. Others even say once a month.
Every night, we shed our skin and if we leave that unclean for weeks, it could mess with our sheets. Have you noticed that once you put on a clean sheet on your bed, the sheet feels lighter? The additional weight of your sheet is caused by the dead skin you shed every night. That is why it pays to clean your sheets weekly.
And if that does not convince you, then we still have one in store for you: bed bugs. You don’t want them to sleep with you, right?
- Mattress
Answer: Once a year
Mattresses are heavy that is why people overlook it. But you should not do so because mattresses gather sweat, pollen, dead skin cells, food particles, dust mites, etc. It is a haven for bacteria to thrive.
But how does one clean his or her mattress? As providers of Cleaning Services in San Francisco, California, we guarantee you do not have to squeeze your mattress in your washing machine. Vacuum it. And if there are stains, sprinkle baking soda on it and let it sit for 20 minutes. Re-vacuum afterward and follow up with a damp sponge and a mild house cleaning solution. If you can, dry your mattress under the sun.
- Pillows
Answer: Every three months
Just like your mattress, your pillow magnets dusts, pollen, sweat, etc. It provides comfort not only to you but also your microscopic friends. This is probably the reason why your allergies continuously irritate you.
There are a number of ways how you can wash your pillow. We recommend following the instruction on your pillow’s tag.
- Under the bed
Answer: clean thoroughly once a month
If you clean under your bed, do it weekly. It is also advisable for you to clean it thoroughly once a month. Do not forget to include under the dresser.
Your carpet may look clean but notice once you vacuum it. It will reveal all its hidden secrets. If you have a carpet in your bedroom, vacuum it once a week.
Cleaning your bedroom needs to be done regularly. If not, you may be in for the toughest cleaning in your life.
