The Benefit of Mattress Protectors

May 17th, 2010

Recent scientific research reveals that uncovered mattresses make perfect host for various allergens and irritants. Dust mites, dead skin like dandruff, mold and bed bugs are common examples for such concerns. This is where Mattress Protectors give benefit. Also known as mattress pad or underpad, it is basically removable bedding that is laid on top of your mattress for providing protection.

Summers are relentless and sweat is a common concern with all, sweat stains not go through the bed cover however they form stains on the mattress which can help infest germs to multiply. Not convinced, notice during summers that after a few weeks of use, a yellow patch of stain will develop on your mattress and pillow. Neglect makes the stain grow into brown color as well.

Infants, while sleeping often secret saliva or urinate. Such concerns will obviously help germs and allergies grow. A mattress with such stains will obviously be unfit for use. Many people actually put the mattress out to dry under the sun, however that only dries the upper crust of the mattress.

As we cannot wash our mattresses, mattress protectors are excellent to use as they are easily washable. Though the upper area of a bed mattress can be easily cleaned with a vacuum cleaner, however stains can’t be washed & removed from the mattress. So obviously, mattress protectors help in such cases.

A simple mattress protector would be like a quilt which is fitted as per the size of your mattress/bed. However such a mattress protector is of no benefit as after regular use, it easily crunches and turns unleveled. The basic purpose of buying a mattress protector is defeated.

Waterproof mattress protectors are the best choice. They have a layer of rubberized flannel pads which have a sponge like character. Any sweat, liquid or secretion is immediately absorbed leaving the least or no stain on your bed mattress.

As a user, you have to ensure that the mattress protector is washed regularly. Don’t differentiate between winter and summer seasons. It’s equally important to wash the mattress protector during winters as thanks to moisture, allergens can spread easily.

Letting it dry a few extra hours under the sun is always a good idea as that’s the best and natural way of killing germs.

Mattress protectors are compulsory to use if you have infants or very old people in your house. Old people are often prone to allergy and many suffer from arthritis or breathing related concerns. Dust mites combining with the thin “invisible” fabric lint dust create allergy and breathing problems for everyone. People waking up in the middle of the night coughing, is a clear sign of that.

Many companies now sell mattress protector which comes with an enclosed case in which you can spray anti-allergens. This helps tremendously as it levels the spray fumes all over the mattress ensuring such germs are killed before they spread through the mattress.

Furthermore, companies now have zippered cases all over the mattress. The traditional sowing technique of sealing a mattress is unsafe. With weathering, the sowing snaps open and dust particles, allergens find an easy way inside the mattress. Zippered cases ensure no openings ensure this doesn’t happen and the mattress remains bug free.
