1. Sponge mattresses need to be rotated regularly, which helps to reduce daily wear and tear. Within three months after purchase, the head and tail of the mattress will be turned over every two weeks, and the face will be rotated every two months after three months. Persistence can prolong the service life of the mattress.
2. The air permeability of sponge mattress is not very good. It is necessary to change sheets, bedspreads and mattresses frequently every day. It is recommended that the mattress be cleaned every 3-6 months. And keep the surface of the mattress clean and sanitary. Avoid jumping, fighting, eating or drinking on the mattress.
3. No matter how good the quality of the sponge mattress is, even if it is intact and used for a long time, many bacteria and mites will accumulate inside the sponge mattress. For the sake of health and hygiene, sponge mattresses should be replaced regularly, and the International Sleep Foundation recommends replacing them every seven years.
4. When using the sponge mattress in wet areas or seasons, it is necessary to move the sponge mattress outdoors to blow, so as to keep the bed dry and avoid breeding bacteria.
5. When pregnant women sleep in a sponge mattress, it is recommended not to choose a sponge mattress that is too thick, and generally choose a sponge mattress of 2 to 5 cm. Too thick sponge mattress is too soft for pregnant women, and low back pain will occur at any stage of pregnancy, especially in the last few weeks of pregnancy. This is caused by changes in the balance of the body with the growth of the fetus. If you use a sponge pad, it will cause eczema or lumbar disc herniation for a long time, which is also unfavorable for your child's development.
