Refresh mattress If your mattress stinks of moisture, perspiration, urine or vomit, remove the bad smells with this tip.
Why does the mattress smell dirty?
Even a new mattress can smell unpleasant. The smell of the mattress can vary from chemical odours, urine, body odour to mould. You can have the mattress professionally cleaned, but this is expensive. So first try these cheap solutions.
How can I remove bad smells from the mattress?
If your mattress is or has been in a moist environment, it smells musty. In that case, leave your mattress outside for at least 10 hours on a sunny day. Place a piece of plastic underneath so that it does not get wet or dirty.
If the mattress smells a bit sour, perspiration is probably the culprit. Occasionally sprinkle some soda on your mattress and let it lie on it for a while. Moisture and odours draw in the soda. Then take the vacuum cleaner and pick up the salt. Your mattress smells completely fresh again.
