How To Refresh Your Mattress Using 3 Simple Ingredients

Did you know that a standard coil mattress will double its weight in 10 years because of all the trapped dead skin, dust mites and other body particles that settle in the springs?

Time for a mattress refresh? Yeah, I thought so too.

This do-it-yourself cleaning hack is easy to make and incredibly effective. I make sure to do this monthly at our house!

MATTRESS POWDER

You spend 1/3 of your life on your mattress – it’s time to cleanse your bedroom sanctuary with this easy cleaning hack!

Ingredients

1/2 cup baking soda

5 drops Lavender essential oil

5 drops Peppermint essential oil

Instructions

•Add ingredients together and sprinkle on mattress

•Leave for 30 minutes to an hour

•Vacuum off mattress with hose

TIP: Try switching out Peppermint for Tea Tree essential oil! Studies have shown that pure Tea Tree oil (only use doTERRA because those grocery store brands won’t work) immobilized 100% of dust mites after 30 minutes and killed them all after 2 hours.

Remember what I said about essential oils being effective cleaners?
