Since I’m a cleaning expert, I’ll tell you what you need to do to clean the mattress of your dirty old bed.

You can clean your mattress without buying expensive detergents or other cleaning supplies.

As a matter of fact, they can be exterminated with a few low-cost items you probably already have lying around the house.

Vanesa Amaro, a professional housekeeper and cleaning wizard, revealed her secret for making any mattress look like new.

Here’s what you’ll need:

To begin, pour each component into the spray bottle; if you don’t want to buy a new bottle, you can always rinse out an old one and use the spray cap.

After adding the water, dish soap, and hydrogen peroxide to the bottle, you can use it.

Vanesa suggested putting a few drops of “your favorite essential oil” into the bottle as well if you wanted to give your mattress a new scent.

If you have trouble falling asleep, lavender is a great option because of its calming effects.

When the solution is ready, simply spray it directly onto each stain a few times and wait a few seconds.

Then, using the toothbrush, scrub in the mixture; this process could take a few minutes.

Remove the stain by blotting the mixture with a clean, old cloth and repeating as necessary.

The hack was a hit with fellow neat freaks, and they all wanted to give it a try immediately.

One user remarked, “Trying this out today!” My dogs and cats have peed on me, and it’s hilarious.

A second user chimed in, “I tried this on old stains… In other words, IT PERFORMED IMPOSSIBLY WELL!

It took me a few tries, but I finally got it.

Another raved: “Omg that’s so easy, thanks!!”
