3 Reasons to Start Using a Mattress Protector

If you’ve ever shopped for a mattress, odds are you’ve also come across a selection of mattress protectors. Despite being a fairly common product, many people still remain confused about what exactly a mattress protector does. While the purpose of the product is right in the title, the question that remains on many minds is what exactly does this protect my mattress from? At Mattress & More, we can shed some light on the issue. Our mattress store carries a variety of mattress protectors that will significantly enhance your mattress as well as your quality of sleep. Find out more about how a mattress protector can benefit you.

Protect Your Mattress from Spills and Accidents

Even if you are exceptionally clean and careful, sometimes accidents will happen, so it’s best to be prepared. Without a mattress protector, things like spilled liquids and perspiration can soak into your mattress, causing stains and even mold growth. Fortunately, we provide a selection of waterproof mattress protectors that will keep your mattress clean and dry if an unfortunate accident occurs.

Defend You Mattress Against Unwanted Pests

Do you suffer from allergies? Do you notice your allergy symptoms seem to get worse when you lie down in bed each night? If so, your mattress may have a dust mite infestation. Dust mites are microscopic creatures that flock to humid areas, such as your bedding, where they can feed on dust particles and dead skin cells. By encasing your mattress in a mattress protector, you will prevent it from accumulating dust particles and moisture, which are what bring the dust mites to your bed. Not only can a mattress protector shield your mattress from dust mites, but it can also be your first line of defense against bed bugs. Bed bugs hide in mattress cracks and feed on human blood. If you wake up covered in red itchy bites, then your bed may have a bed bug infestation. Fortunately, a bed bug mattress protector will trap any bed bugs already on your mattress, as well as prevent it from attracting more. Once you purchase a mattress protector, you can sleep soundly without fear of any tiny intruders. 

Enjoy a Cooler Sleep Surface

In addition to protecting your mattress from stains and allergens, our mattress protectors will also provide you with a cooler sleep surface. Made from innovative, breathable fabrics, our mattress protectors were designed to wick away body moisture and keep the surface of your bed cool and dry.
