Why Should You Have Your Mattress Cleaned at Least Once a Year?

You change your sheets regularly, but have you ever thought about what’s hiding inside your mattress?
At first glance, it might look clean. But on average, a double mattress can contain up to 10 million dust mites — not to mention sweat, dead skin cells, pet hair, bacteria, and even traces of bodily fluids. Every night, your body leaves behind an invisible… yet very real imprint.

Here’s why yearly mattress cleaning isn’t just recommended — it’s essential:

• General Hygiene: A mattress can absorb up to 1.5 liters of sweat per month. Imagine that after a year…

• Dust Mites & Allergies: Dust mites feed on your dead skin cells and can trigger asthma attacks, allergic rhinitis, and itchy skin.

• Sleep Quality: A clean, disinfected, and odor-free mattress promotes deeper, more restful sleep.

• Mattress Lifespan: Regular cleaning can extend the life of your mattress — sometimes by up to 5 additional years.

• Stain Prevention: Some stains, if not treated quickly, become permanently embedded in the fabric.

At Matelas 911, we recommend cleaning your mattress once a year under regular use, and every 6 months in special cases: children, pets, allergies, Airbnb rentals, and more.

A professional cleaning is an investment in your health, your comfort, and your peace of mind.
