COULD YOUR BED MAKE YOU SICK? Why You Need to Wash Your Bed Linens
As the kids head back to school this year, you may be dreading the return of back-to-school germs. Colds and flus make their rounds in every household during the fall, but you can fight this! One of the easiest ways is to regularly clean your bed linens.
Here is a very simple schedule to follow for cleaning bed linens.
• Your sheets and pillowcases should be washed at least once every week. This may seem excessive, but it’s the simplest way to target germs quickly and effectively. You can also make this chore easier by signing up for our pick-up and delivery services! Simply put your bedding out on the front step every week, and we will wash, dry, and fold it for you. There are two options for sheets, wash-dry-fold, just like you can do at home, and full service, which includes ironing and gives you the feel of sleeping in a high-end hotel right in your own bed. • Larger items, like your comforter or a pillow, can be washed every three months. While these items can collect mites, germs, and dirt, they don’t take on the brunt of it like our sheets do. This is why you can get away with a less strict schedule for pillows and blankets. Our professional large capacity machines do a great job on these. This back-to-school season, don’t forget to add a wash cycle for your bedding to your daily list. This will not only protect your bed linens from damage, but it can also prevent the fall flu from striking your home.

We spend about 30% of our lives in bed. That’s a lot of time to spend somewhere that isn’t clean! As we sleep, our sheets and comforter can become a collection of dust mites, oil, skin cells, and sweat. Our bed linens hold onto this grime, and as a result, without regular cleaning, our beds can cause acne breakouts, worsening allergies, and even spread viruses. Furthermore, when we let dust and allergens seep into our beds without proper cleaning,
we threaten the integrity of these materials. You may notice your comforter isn’t as colorful as it used to be or that your pillowcase is thinning. While this can happen over time from use, the dirt and bacteria in your bedding damages the strength of your fabrics. The best way to combat this is to wash your bedding on a rotating schedule. This will rid your linens of health-threatening mites and germs and protect the longevity of your favorite bed materials.
