Cleaning Your Bedroom Linen
Have you ever wondered what’s living on the surface of your linen? You’d be shocked to find out that there are many organisms living on dirty linen including dust mites and even faecal matter. What’s more, dirty bedding is crawling with germs and bacteria.
Since you spend a third of your life in bed it’s important to wash your linen regularly to prevent skin allergies and acne breakouts. Clean linen will significantly improve your sleep.
Since Zoflora is a disinfectant you can use the product to clean your bedroom linen. Linen Fresh is the perfect fragrance that adds a pleasant scent to your bedding. Simply follow these steps:
- Place linen into your washing machine
- Pour washing powder into the respective compartment
- Add one cap of Zoflora concentrate to your rinse cycle
Zoflora will eliminate all the germs, bacteria and dust mites living in the fibres of your linen.
Disinfect Your Bedroom Mattress
Similar to your sheets, your bedroom mattress can also harbour unwanted bacteria, dust mites and even mould. A dirty germ riddled mattress can cause your skin to itch which disturbs your sleep. To kill all the germs and bacteria living on your mattress follow these steps.
- Remove linen from the bed
- Add water to a 500ml Zoflora spray bottle
- Pour one cap of Zoflora concentrate into the bottle
- Close the bottle and shake it well
- Spray the solution all over your bedroom mattress
- Wait 15 minutes before putting clean linen on your bed
Fake Flowers with a Scent
Another factor that affects your sleep is foul odours. Smelly sheets, carpets or pillows can increase your anxiety similar to how clutter affects the brain. One advantage of Zoflora is that it eliminates foul odours quickly.
Some people put real flowers in their bedrooms to add a fresh scent to the area. But after a while, the flowers will start to wither and emit a musty odour. To prevent this from happening use fake flowers instead and sprits Zoflora onto the material. Or pour water into the flower vase and add one cap of Zoflora concentrate to the liquid.
The Zoflora will fill your room with a pleasant fragrance so you can have a better night’s rest.
Clean All Your Bedroom Surfaces
Your bed and linen aren’t the only places in your bedroom that you need to keep clean. Dust, germs and bacteria can settle on all your surfaces. Use Zoflora to wipe down all surfaces in your room such as:
- Bedside tables
- Lamps
- Mirrors
- Windowsills
- Light switches
- Door handles
- Dressing tables
You can either use your Zoflora spray or add water and two caps of concentrate to a bucket. Dip a cloth in the solution, wring it out and wipe down all surfaces.
Spray Zoflora on Your Pillows
If the scent of Zoflora has faded in your room or you simply want to disinfect your bedding before bed, simply spray Zoflora on your pillow. Additionally, the scent on your pillow will help you fall asleep and the Zoflora will kill all germs and bacteria living on its surface.
