I have been cleaning and sanitising mattresses in the Melbourne area and surrounding suburbs now for eight years now. I’m regularly confronted with a colourful array of mattress stains and odours. I have tried and tested procedures that get positive results. Let me show you how good your mattress can look again. Below is a short list of some of the more regular questions I get asked.

How do I remove urine from a mattress?

How do I remove blood from a mattress?

How do I remove vomit from a mattress?

How do I remove sweat stains from a mattress?

My reply to all of these questions is automatic… ACT QUICKLY! Do not let an accident get worse by ignoring it. Sometimes when a mattress has been urinated on the affected area can be quite invisible; if neglected and covered up, a large yellow stain is often the result when the bedding is changed days later. All urine stains on a mattress are the same but different in regards to how they should be treated. Cat pee on a mattress often has a stronger odour than dog or human urine but all of these should be treated in the same fashion.

Mop up and absorb as much of the urine as possible, I white towel is best for this

  1. Apply bi-carb of soda
  2. Wait ten minutes and vacuum up the bi-carb
  3. Apply bi-carb of soda again but wait 30 minutes before vacuuming
  4. Apply bi-carb once more and leave overnight before vacuuming again
  5. A wet extraction if possible is best to complete the procedure

Following this procedure will insure that no tell tale stain will appear in the coming weeks. Do not add detergents or vinegar during this procedure

All of these problems can easily be made worse if treated incorrectly but easily fixed if treated in a timely manner and done properly

 

How do I remove blood from a mattress?

While blood is virtually impossible to remove after time, it is quite simple to remove if down quickly

  1. Mop up and absorb as much of the blood as possible, I white towel is best for this (do not rub, just pad the affected area)
  2. Mix up a warm batch of strong salty water
  3. Pad the area to get a blood transfer on the towel
  4. Repeat the process of padding the area until all the blood is gone. Use fresh or rinsed out towels
  5. A wet extraction if possible is best to complete this procedure

How do I remove sweat stains from a mattress?

Sweat stains are a little different to most other stains as they tend to appear over a longer period of time and aren’t that noticeable until it is a little late for a home remedy.

  1. If you or your partner are hot sleepers my best advice would be to invest in a moisture proof cover
  2. If its a little too late for that just call me and I’ll get to work on reversing the damage.
