Why Mattress Cleaning Matters More Than You Think
The average person spends around a third of their life in bed — yet mattresses are one of the most neglected items in the home when it comes to cleaning. Over time, a mattress accumulates an alarming amount of dust mites, dead skin cells, sweat, allergens and bacteria.
A 2023 study found that a typical mattress can contain up to 2 million dust mites. Their waste matter is one of the most common triggers of asthma and allergic rhinitis. Regular mattress cleaning isn't just about hygiene — it's about protecting your health and the health of your family.
What's Inside Your Mattress?
- Dust mites — microscopic creatures that feed on dead skin cells and thrive in warm, humid environments
- Allergens — dust mite waste, pet dander and pollen embedded in mattress fibres
- Bacteria and fungi — encouraged by moisture from sweat and body heat
- Stains — urine, sweat, blood and spills that discolour and odourise
- Dead skin cells — up to 1.5 grams per night per person
Our BIO-CLEAN Mattress Cleaning Process
We use BIO-CLEAN hot-water extraction — a technology that delivers superior cleaning results compared to standard vacuum-only services. Hot water is injected deep into the mattress layers and extracted along with contaminants, leaving your mattress hygienically clean.
- Pre-inspection to assess stains, wear and condition
- Dry vacuuming to remove loose surface debris and skin cells
- Pre-treatment of stains, urine spots and heavily soiled areas
- BIO-CLEAN hot-water extraction to deep clean all layers
- Deodorising treatment to eliminate odours at the source
- Final inspection — we don't leave until you're satisfied
Who Benefits Most from Mattress Cleaning?
- Allergy and asthma sufferers — reducing dust mite exposure can significantly reduce symptoms
- Families with young children or babies — they spend the most time in bed and are most vulnerable
- Pet owners — pets on beds increase allergen and bacteria levels considerably
- Anyone who hasn't cleaned their mattress in over 12 months
- Rental property owners — between tenants is the ideal time
How Often Should You Clean Your Mattress?
We recommend professional mattress cleaning every 6 to 12 months for most households. Allergy sufferers, pet owners and families with young children should aim for every 6 months. For rental properties, a professional clean between each tenancy is best practice.
