Sorry to tell you, but your bed is gross. The average mattress “can have thousands of dust mites that produce millions of droppings,” Dr. Manal Mohammed, a medical microbiologist and senior lecturer at London’s University of Westminster, told HuffPost in a previous report. These mites feed on your dead skin cells, sweat, food crumbs and sweat. Terrifying bugs aside, mattresses are also prone to mold and fungi due to their ability to hold moisture and warmth.
Disgusting, yeah, but don’t burn your mattress yet. Clean it the right way. Mohammed says one way to combat your germy bedtime woes is to clean your bed with a mattress-designated vacuum cleaner with a UV light. These handheld devices glide over the surface, vibrating to loosen dirt, sucking up time particles and trapping them in a HEPA filter. Lucky for you, we found one on sale today for a whopping 50% off when you reedem the on-page coupon.

This rechargeable handheld mattress vacuum cleaner has a UV light designed to kill germs and strong suction to grab any leftover midnight snacks. It also has a hand-washable HEPA filter and a metal screen pre-filter to minimize frequent cleaning.
Reviewer Kato says this device is a great buy, despite initial skepticism. “Honestly I thought it was a waste because we change our sheets often and i doubted the bed mattress was dirty,” they wrote. “So imagine my surprise when I used it on the mattress and tons of dirt got sucked up into the filter. It really worked. Now I am committed to using it every time we change the sheets.”
Meanwhile, reviewer Abby Hibionada recommends this powerful gadget for cleaning your furnishings, especially if you have pets. “This is the perfect handheld vacuum to get everything off of furniture and mattresses!” they wrote. ”…It does a great job of cleaning up leftover dog hair that regular handheld vacuums can’t remove. This is now an essential cleaning tool in our home… It’s a great way to keep the bed dust free in between cleanings. From the mattress to the pillows and everything in between!”
“This tool has become my hero removing dust mites from my bed, my mattresses, linens, clothes, chairs, curtains, and sofas. Virtually, all cloth surfaces in my living area are now on my list. 😃 My breathing is much better in my home, and I have experienced a substatial decrease in itching episodes after using this UV vaccum. The cord is long enough to get to every area I target. The tool must be plugged into a wall socket to work. The operating sound is not bothersome, and the unit did not feel hot using it after 35 minutes. This will be a great gift for family members or friends suffering from allergies to dust mites, cut grass, pollen.” — alwaysthankful

”Use on my mattress and was surprised because I’ve always used a mattress cover. It pulled dust from my mattress and worked smoothly! The suction was good as long as you keep it leveled.” — Ms TeeBee
