### 🧼 **Step-by-Step Stain Removal Process**

#### 1. **Blot the Area**

If the stain is fresh, gently blot the area with a clean cloth or paper towel to absorb as much moisture as possible. Avoid rubbing, as this can push the stain deeper into the mattress.

#### 2. **Prepare a Cleaning Solution**

Mix equal parts white vinegar and water in a spray bottle. Add a few drops of liquid dish soap for extra cleaning power.

#### 3. **Spray the Stain**

Lightly spray the stained area with the solution. Let it sit for about 10-15 minutes to break down the stain and neutralize odors.

#### 4. **Blot Again**

Use a clean cloth to blot the area, lifting the stain and moisture from the mattress.

#### 5. **Apply Baking Soda**

Sprinkle a generous layer of baking soda over the treated area. Baking soda absorbs moisture and odors, helping to freshen the mattress.

#### 6. **Optional: Use Hydrogen Peroxide**

For stubborn stains, mix a solution of 1 part hydrogen peroxide with 2 parts water and a few drops of dish soap. Spray lightly on the baking soda layer and let it fizz for a few minutes before blotting again.

#### 7. **Let it Dry**

Allow the mattress to air dry completely. Open windows or use fans to speed up the drying process. Leaving it damp can encourage mold growth.

#### 8. **Vacuum**

Once dry, vacuum the mattress thoroughly to remove any remaining baking soda and loosened dirt.

* Use a waterproof mattress protector to shield your mattress from spills and accidents.
* Wash bedding regularly to reduce sweat buildup.
* Maintain good ventilation in your bedroom to keep moisture levels low.
