Damp bedding during the rainy season, just do this to make it dry and fresh

During the rainy season, bedding often feels damp and humid.

 

 

Sometimes I feel like I can't sleep well because of that.

Learn about methods to keep bedding dry and fresh during the rainy season.

 

During the summer, there is more sweat and sebum secretion compared to other seasons.

Therefore, bedding that comes into direct contact with the skin requires more thorough cleanliness management through washing.

 

It is recommended to do laundry at least once every two weeks, even if you feel lazy.

 

To effectively wash and dissolve the main components of sweat and sebum, such as salts and fats, it is best to wash with hot water.

Adding a couple of tablespoons of vinegar instead of fabric softener can prevent bad odors and bacterial growth in blanket laundry.

 

 

 

After washing, it is best to dry as quickly as possible.

 

To prevent bacterial growth. The best option is to use a dryer or dehumidifier.

However, if there is no dryer, you can use newspaper and a fan.

 

Lay the bedding on the drying rack with enough space between them, and place newspaper in between.

 

Multiple layers of newspaper are laid on the floor to promote the evaporation of moisture from the wet laundry. 

 

Additionally, by using fans and circulators to create a well-ventilated environment, drying time can be shortened.

 

Meanwhile, during the rainy season, bedding stored in humid closets should also be properly managed.

Closets are difficult to ventilate, making them more susceptible to moisture during the summer.

Only well-dried bedding and clothing are stored in the wardrobe.

During the rainy season, I occasionally leave the wardrobe door open or use a fan to blow away moisture.

 

It is also good to keep all the doors of wardrobes and closets open when using a dehumidifier.

If you lay newspaper in each compartment and put in enough desiccant, the humidity inside the wardrobe will decrease, preventing mold.

 

Dehumidifiers stored in the closet will accumulate water over time, reducing their effectiveness, so they should be replaced periodically.
