5. Cleaning
Though not the most enjoyable task, cleaning your mattress is crucial. Aim to do it at least twice a year. Strip the bedding and vacuum the entire mattress thoroughly to remove dust and hair. Pay extra attention to edges and seams, where dirt and dust mites accumulate. Sprinkle baking soda over the surface, let it sit for a while, then vacuum it up. This leaves your mattress smelling fresh. For more cleaning tips, check out this guide.
