This way, clean the bed sheets. Clean the bed sheets should be comprehensive. Generally, people spend at least 7-8 hours a day on sleep. They will discharge 200ml of sweat every night to provide a breeding ground for the various bacteria on the bedding. Human pillowcases, bed sheets, and quilt covers are stained with various bacteria, viruses, fungi, protozoa cysts, etc. If these bacteria are not removed in time, they will surely spread various diseases and endanger human health. The weather is sunny and suitable for drying. It is recommended that you wash the bedding at home immediately, then take it out and dry it, and use the ultraviolet rays in the sun to sterilize it.
While changing the bed cover and sheets, you might as well use a vacuum cleaner or a slightly damp rag to clean the remaining dander, hair, etc. on the mattress. If there are any stains, you can apply soap to the dirty area, then suck it clean with a dry cloth, or use a hairdryer to dry the wet stains so that they will not become moldy or produce odor.
Bed sheet stain cleaning collection
Many people will encounter various stains on the sheets when cleaning the sheets, including stains caused by blood, juice, rust, etc., which are difficult to clean. Especially after a long time, if you get stained with these stains, it is even more difficult to remove thorns. What can I do to eliminate these stains? In fact, when cleaning blood, you cannot use hot water to wash it, you can only use cold water to wash it. The blood contains protein components such as plasma that can be soluble in water, but after being heated, it becomes insoluble in water, just like the chicken blood, pig blood, or eggs we usually eat. After heating, it becomes a block that cannot be dissolved in water, so it will naturally not be easy to wash. By the same token, blood stains will undergo similar chemical changes after being exposed to the air for a long time. This is why Chen Jiu's blood stains are not easy to wash away.
There are many ways to clean blood stains. The most direct way to clean blood stains is to soak them in cold water first, and then wash them with enzyme-added washing powder, which is very effective. You can also use soap or 10% potassium iodide solution to clean it or use white radish juice or mashed carrot salt to remove blood stains; use 10% tartaric acid solution to wipe the stains, and then wash it with cold water. The old blood can be washed away with oxalic acid, or lemon juice and salt water. The old blood stains turned black and brown because the iron in the hemoglobin was oxidized in the air, creating rust. The juice also contains iron. Once the oxygen stained on the clothes and the air comes into contact with the oxygen, brown rust spots will also be generated. Therefore, the stains caused by blood, juice and rust can be washed away with oxalic acid, which turns the rust into a colorless substance and dissolves it into water.
The blood stains on white clothing can be 1 part of sodium thiosulfate and 50 parts of water, mix, dilute and dissolve and heat to 35°C, soak the white clothing until the blood color disappears, and then wash with water. The fabric can also be immersed in a vinegar solution with a concentration of 3%, and then placed for 12 hours, then rinsed with water, which is also very effective. Whether it is new or old, you can use sulfur soap to rub and clean.
Not cleaning of new bed sheets can cause cancer
Newly purchased bed sheets usually have a odor, which is the smell of formaldehyde. During the production of bed sheets, the addition of formaldehyde is used to prevent the fabric from wrinkling. Therefore, it is best to soak the newly purchased bed sheets in salt water before use. Because the carcinogens —— formaldehyde may remain on the new sheets. Under high pressure and high temperature environments, combining formaldehyde molecules with cotton fiber molecules can produce anti-wrinkle effects. However, if the processing process is not rigorous enough, or if the cleaning is not cleaned after treatment, the formaldehyde monomer will be released from the fabric, and even the fabric itself has formaldehyde. According to studies, formaldehyde can also cause cancer in addition to causing diseases such as cough and allergic rhinitis. Salt can disinfect, sterilize, and prevent the cotton cloth from fading, so it is best to soak it in salt water before using new sheets. For the sake of good health, don’t be afraid of trouble, and you should be prevented.
Health reminder:
If possible, you can add a layer of cleaning pad between the mattress and the sheets. A special cotton layer is built into the cleaning pad to prevent moisture from entering the mattress to keep the mattress clean and dry, and it is warm and sweat-absorbing, and is easy to clean. In addition, you can also choose a mattress with a cover, which has a zipper lock that can be removed and cleaned.
