To get started, remove all of the pillows, fitted sheets, and all the bedding from the bed and give these a good wash.

Next, vacuum the mattress using the upholstery attachment on your vacuum cleaner. This helps to clean dead skin cells, dust mites, pet dander, and more.

Then, spot treat to remove blood stains, urine stains, vomit stains, and sweat stains out of the mattress.
