Sorry to tell you, but your bed is gross. T he average mattress “can have thousands of dust mites that produce millions of droppings,” Manal Mohammed , a medical microbiologist and senior lecturer at London’s University of Westminster, told HuffPost in a previous report . These mites feed on your dead skin cells, sweat, food crumbs and sweat.
Terrifying bugs aside, mattresses are also prone to mold and fungi due to their ability to hold moisture and warmth. Disgusting, yeah, but don’t burn your mattress yet. Clean it the right way.
Dr. Mohammed says one way to combat your germy bedtime woes is to clean your bed with a mattress-designated vacuum cleaner with a UV light. These handheld devices glide over the surface, vibrating to loosen dirt, sucking up time particles and trapping them in a HEPA filter.
Luckily for you, we found one on sale today at almost 40% off , and per one reviewer , “this is one super sucker” that’s great for couches, pillows and more. This corded handheld mattress vacuum cleaner has a UV light designed to kill germs and strong suction to grab any leftover midnight snacks. It also has a hand-washable HEPA filter and a metal screen pre-filter to minimize frequent cleaning.
