Wanna see something scary ??

Vacuum your mattress, top and bottom with a Dyson, or similar see through container vacuum cleaner !!

(Empty container first, you may fill it !!)

PS: Don't forget to rotate your mattress in all directions occasionally.

I don't want to know; I need the sleep.

Good Night, Sleep Tight.....

DON'T LET THE BED BUGS BITE.

Actually, it's mostly dust from decomposing skin.

If you think thats disturbing, have someone steam clean your carpet and watch how everything it sucks out is brown. But as LowBat said, sometimes its better not to know.....

I do that too. Got my own machine.

First time I cleaned my carpets, left by previous owners, but quality carpets in excellent condition !!

Or so I thought.

YUK.

Now I clean them every 6 months, or sooner.

I saw a show that recommended changing pillows more often than is usually done. They weighed 2 similar pillows, and the one that had been used was significantly heavier than the new one.

I bought some new pillows after I saw that.

At the same time, I don't think people are getting sick from their old pillows, but they do get pretty gross.

Pillows.

Ever noticed how they go brown from sweat, etc stains after a while.

These days I first put on a white pillow case, then put the patterned/coloured one over the top, both get washed regularly, the white one less often, and pillows these days tend to get chucked after a year max.

I have tried washing the pillows, they don't work well after, as the filling moves around in the wash.

They're cheap enough to chuck annually anyway.

Pillows you can run through the washing machine...

I was just thinking about the mattress thing the other day. Every girl that gets in my bed says how comfy it is.(pillow top) I too feel this way, except I would like a newer one. I've had mine for about 5 years now, but do not have $900.00 to drop on a new one. I've had cheaper ones but considering how much it gets used and the quality of sleep I get on it, I can't see spending less. Maybe I have to stop buying flashlight/parts and save up for a new one. I will try the vacuum first.

Now that was funny .....just make sure you have a good heat sink Defabricata and you and your guests should be just fine....hehe

I guess washing bedsheets, pillow covers and pillows on a weekly basis is not good enough eh? Hmmm. . .Ever seen those up close via microscope? :huh:

sharring your bed with about 20,000 of these buggers?+your partner.wow no one is ever alone.sleep tight guys?.

That's a dust mite, right? You know, after several years (I think 10, maybe less), half the weight of a feather pillow can be dust mites.

No the picture is a bed bug!!
