Best way to clean a mattress you bought from Craigslist?

I’m thinking of buying a mattress set from Craigslist–but before I do, I want to know if there’s a way to thoroughly clean it, inexpensively. What needs to be done to keep from getting other people’s critters?

How do I clean a mattress when the weather outside is crummy?

My buddy lent me a mattress for a week before I get a real bed. I’d like to clean it because I know where it came from was a terribly messy place. What can I do? The weather outside is too wet to air it out, would febreeze work? What about for bed bugs? Thanks in advance

What is the best way to clean urine from a mattress?

My daughter’s best friend had a sleep over, a 6 yr old boy, and it appears he had an accident on the air mattress. It’s not a regular air mattress though, it is one of those big twin deluxe air mattresses from Wal-Mart with a somewhat fabric/velvet-like topping. What would be the most effective way for me to go about cleaning it, sanitizing it, and getting the odor out? Thanks

Anyone know how to clean a cotton mattress?

We have a Simmons mattress. It is cotton. My son spilled some soda on it, and I thought I got it up well enough, but there is still a light brown stain on the mattress.

If anyone has any suggestions as to how I can get this stain up, I would greatly appreciate it!!

Thanks!

Can I clean a mattress outdoors?

I want to freshen my children’s mattress. I’ve cleaned it indoors using chemicals and clorox but it takes forever to dry and leaves a watermark stain.

I know this is “country”, but I had a notion that since we’re going through a drought season, I want to take it outside, douse it with cleaners and hose it down! I know it will take forever to dry, but time and sun will be on my side.

Any better suggestions?

How can I clean and fluff my heavy futon mattress?

My futon has a very heavy and thick mattress on it that cannot fit into a washer. Despite my regular flipping and rotating, over the last year it has flattened out so much that it’s more uncomfortable to sit on than a junior high school desk chair. It’s also been subjected to quite a few beverage spills, so it could use a thorough cleaning (yes, I already have a protective cover for it too).

It’s a stuffed mattress, so its pretty much just a bunch of fluffy material jammed into a cloth bag with a zipper. I’ve considered just emtpying it out and washing the mattress covers so they tighten up, then just try to cram all of the fluff back into them; however, I’m thinking that will just give me a big blob of fluff. Any tips?

How can I clean stains on a memory foam mattress?

my chihuahuas left some urine stains on my memory foam mattress. The mattress has a some kind of thin covering on it. Anyways i cleaned the dirty areas with oxy interior and well now it looks weird, the areas look lighter than the actual mattress color. I dont know but ive heard some people use urine gone and nature’s miracle with success. Any other recommendations?
