Easy way to disinfect your bed mattress using baking soda

Do you want to buy a new mattress because the one you currently have has mites, dust and suffers from bad smells that are difficult to remove? You can save money and time by using this methodology to disinfect mattresses that very few people know. It's very simple and super economical. You only need three things that you can have very accessible in your home: sodium bicarbonate, essential oil, a sieve and a manual vacuum cleaner.

Sodium bicarbonate helps to eliminate moisture and deep dirt. Deodorizes and leaves the mattress with fresh and clean smell, however, just make sure that if you have tile, hardwood, or laminated floors, have something prepared to clean or sweep, because you will have dust lying on the floor after the whole process.

Essential oil is a requirement, as this will bring to your mattress the aroma you missed. Try to use essential oils that are both disinfectants, such as thyme, rosemary, Eucalyptus and lavender, but you can also use others that do not have disinfectant properties, such as cinnamon, chamomile, jasmine, etc. That's your choice.

Disinfect the mattress in this way and you will see excellent results. You can do it once a month, or as you consider necessary according to the use you give. Remember that there is always a practical economic solution for everything that will allow you to save time, money and effort.

Combine these two ingredients into a covered container and shake.

Then sift through a strainer or sieve over the entire area of the mattress.

Leave to rest on the mattress for about an hour.

Use vacuum cleaner to remove the bicarbonate
