About mattress cleaning services
A mattress that stays damp is worse than one left alone. Most manufacturers void warranties on steam cleaning, so check first. For allergy sufferers the combination that works is a professional clean followed by a barrier cover, since the mites come back to an uncovered mattress within weeks.
