Brilio.net - Mattresses are one of the sleeping mats that are prone to getting dirty. Dirt on the mattress can be caused by dust or sweat released by the body while sleeping. If you don't clean it immediately, the dirt will absorb into the mattress fibers and cause yellow stains.

For those of you who have babies or toddlers, of course the problem of dirty cases is not only caused by dust and sweat, but also bed-wetting. The smell of urine will become more pronounced and difficult to remove if it is not cleaned immediately.

To deal with the smell of urine, some people use baking soda to remove the strong smell of urine. There are also those who choose to rub it with detergent and then hang the mattress until dry. However, this method is quite time and energy consuming.
