Taking to her story, recently showed a method of using bicarbonate of soda (or baking powder) to clean a mattress.
It's a product many members of the public already have – with selling it for 60p.
First step involves stripping the bed – which includes pillows, sheet, duvet and mattress protectors.
Then, you need to hoover the mattress and capture any debris or dust which may have gathered.
The next step is to sprinkle the baking powder over the mattress' surface.
Depending on resources, you could either use a sieve or by hand after sprinkling from the container.
When finished, leave the baking powder to sit on the mattress for a few hours.
Afterwards, hoover the mattress again – only this time to remove the baking soda.
If there are persistent stains, a possible next move could be to spot clean them.
After completing the above steps, proceed by leaving the mattress for a few hours to air out.

“When was the last time you gave it a good, deep clean?
“We are sorry to disappoint you but the mattresses you are using every single day are the perfect environment for the accumulation of dirt and .
“Cleaning the lines just won't do the cleaning for you, as the dust, dirt, sweat and other body fluids pass through the sheets and end up in the mattress.
“Believe it or not, all you need to clean the mattress is some baking soda, as it is extremely successful in destroying bacteria.”
