Winter is here, and we all like to hide in the warm quilt and enjoy a comfortable sleep. However, have you noticed that when we take out the quilt that has been put in for a summer, there is always a bad smell?This is because the bacteria and mites inside the quilt multiply in a humid environment, creating an odor. Moreover, the sunlight in winter is not strong enough, and drying the quilt is not easy to dry out completely, let alone kill these harmful microorganisms. So, what do we do?Do you want to take the quilt and wash it?Actually, no, today I want to share with you a magic method, which can make everyone's quilt clean and odorless without washing or drying, and it can be soft and comfortable, just like new!
1. How to remove the odor of the quiltWe only need to prepare the following three things: a small watering can, alcohol, half a lemonFirst, we need to fill the small watering can with half a bottle of water, and then add two caps of alcohol. If you don't have alcohol, you can also substitute high liquor for just as good results. The function of alcohol is that it can volatilize quickly, take away the moisture and odor in the quilt, and can also disinfect and sterilize, and remove mites.
Then cut half a lemon, squeeze the lemon juice into a watering can and stir to combine. In addition, the vitamin C of lemon is a natural antioxidant that can inhibit the growth of mites and protect the color and texture of the quilt.
Finally, adjust the nozzle of the watering can to the thinnest state and spray evenly against the quilt. No, you don'tWorry about the quilt getting wet because the water molecules in the watering can are small and will evaporate quickly. Just spray it once, don't spray too much, otherwise it will affect the effect.
After spraying, we will find that there is already a faint lemon fragrance on the quilt, which is very fresh. However, this is not enough, we have to do the last step, which is to dry the quilt with a hair dryer. We need to open the hot air shield of the hair dryer and blow the air on the quilt with maximum force. This accelerates the evaporation of water and also makes the cotton soft, increasing the thickness and warmth of the quilt. Blow until the quilt is completely dry, so that the quilt is clean and odorless. After this treatment, our quilt will become like new, without any odor, and with a lemon scent, which is very comfortable.
When you cover it at night, you will feel that the quilt is warm and soft. And you don't have to worry about bacteria and mites in the quilt. Because they are all "wiped out" by alcohol and lemons, so that it is good for our ** and respiratory system.
Of course, this method is only a temporary solution, if you want to make the quilt cleaner and healthier, you still have to dry the quilt in time when the weather is good. Drying can use ultraviolet light to kill residual bacteria, and it can also make the quilt drier and fluffier, so that we can sleep and be healthy. This method is good, but there are some caveats to follow.
2. Precautions1. Before using alcohol, it is best to try it in an inconspicuous place to see if it will cause damage to the color or texture of the quilt. If so, switch to another detergent, such as white vinegar or lemonade. 2. When using a hair dryer to dry the quilt, pay attention to controlling the temperature and distance to avoid overheating or too close, which will cause the quilt to burn or deform. It is best to feel the temperature of the quilt with your hands and keep it warm and not hot.
3. If everyone's quilt is a cashmere duvet or duvet, you can use a watering can to clean and remove odor. But be careful, don't use alcohol, as it can damage the texture of cashmere or down, and you can also substitute white vinegar or lemonade, which also works well. In addition to this method, you can also use mothballs or desiccant to clean and deodorize the quilt.
3. Use mothballs or desiccantYou can put some mothballs or desiccant on the four corners of the quilt, which can absorb the moisture and odor in the quilt, and also prevent insects. But make sure that the mothballs are sealed and do not leak out, otherwise it may cause irritation or allergies to the quilt or the human body. If you have small children or pets at home, take care to prevent them from eating or playing with them.
