Brilio.net - Mattresses are one of the household furniture that are used every day, so they are very susceptible to stubborn stains. Stains on mattresses can come from various sources such as spilled drinks, sweat, blood, or even body oil. These stains not only make the mattress look dirty and unattractive, but can also cause unpleasant odors and nests for bacteria and mites, which are harmful to health.
On the other hand, removing stubborn stains on the mattress is quite troublesome. The problem is, the stains that have stuck will be very difficult to clean, even though the mattress has been brushed many times. To overcome this, many people then choose to use special cleaning tools to wash and dry the mattress.
In addition to special cleaning tools, you can use a more practical method to remove stubborn stains on the mattress. This method was once used by the owner of the Instagram account @spreiunikbintaro. Through one of the videos uploaded, he admitted to only using simple tools available at home and kitchen ingredients.
As reported by BrilioFood from Instagram @spreiunikbintaro on Monday (16/9), the simple tool in question is an iron. Meanwhile, the kitchen ingredients used are baking soda and salt. Not only that, there are other ingredients that must be prepared, namely powdered detergent, fabric softener, and citric acid.

Next, insert a small towel, then press and squeeze until the water runs out. If so, place this towel on the mattress, then cover it with a pre-heated iron. After that, wrap the iron with the towel.

To remove stains on the mattress, you can directly rub the surface of the stain with an iron plate that has been covered with a towel. Keep rubbing for a few minutes, okay? This process will make the stains on the mattress move to the towel, so the mattress becomes cleaner.

Well, the mattress that has been cleaned does not need to be dried again. This method does not make the mattress really wet. You only need to air the mattress so that it is dry and not damp. Then put on the sheets as usual.
This post about the trick to remove stubborn stains on the mattress has been viewed more than 530 thousand times. It is no wonder that many other Instagram users are interested, and also provide various responses directly in the comments column.
"The point is, if there is a stain, clean it immediately, if you leave it, it will be difficult to clean," said Instagram @oildropku_byjules.
"Should the iron stay plugged in or unplugged, min?" asked the Instagram account @ellyymalika.
"Yesterday we were released, Sis. So it's not that it's still really hot. But still be careful, Sis," replied Instagram user @spreiunikbintaro.
