Mattress Care - Getting Rid of Dust Bunnies and Lint Fibers

We use our mattress every day for hours. During its regular use, the top layer of the mattress fabric can become worn. Lint fibres and dust bunny can end up all over and make the mattress look horrible. This natural wear occurs from the friction of bedding and the top of the mattress. Thankfully there are ways to manage it.

The best way to make your mattress look new again is with a fabric shaver and lint remover. Professional shaver equipment is recommended since has adjustable blade height and has features to prevent ruining your mattress from scratches. Regular shavers aren't recommended.

Essentially you need a clothing fabric shaver and a sticky lint brush. Remove all the bedding. Vacuum the mattress to remove loose fibres and some dirt. Test the shaver on an inconspicuous spot to test how it works first. Start at one corner of the mattress and shave off the lint fibres and bobbles.

Use the sticky lint brush to remove periodically. This ensures that you haven't missed any areas. This process should be repeated at least once a year. Keep in mind that regular wearing still occurs.
