Today I have a simple DIY mattress cleaner for you, because well, life happens! This easy recipe takes just minutes to make and use, and it’s customizable, too.

Plus, did you know we are actually supposed to clean our mattress regularly? Do you? Admittedly I do not! But our little one is phasing out of nighttime diapers, so naturally, accidents happen. This time the accident was in our bed, without the special mattress protection cover. Oops!

But not to worry! It took me about one minute to make this simple DIY mattress cleaner and about 10 minutes overall for cleaning the mattress.

Simple DIY Mattress Cleaner Ingredients

  • Baking soda
  • doTERRA Purify essential oil blend*
  • doTERRA Tea Tree (optional)*

Directions

  • In a ceramic bowl or mason jar, add about a half a cup of baking soda
  • Add a few drops of doTERRA Purify essential oil blend and a couple drops of Tea Tree, if using.
  • Mix with a fork (or put the lid on the mason jar and shake) until combine.
  • Sprinkle on the bed in the area of concern. If you are doing the entire mattress, you will likely need to double or triple this recipe.
  • Let it sit for at least one hour.
  • Vacuum it up using the vacuum hose.
  • Add fresh sheets and your done!

*Note: you can substitute the essential oils to your essential oil aroma of choice. For example, lavender would be calming and relaxing in the bedroom. I chose these oils for their cleansing properties.
