Family Life Knows Everything.

Chapter 23
In summer, people have the habit of changing and washing pillow covers and pillowcases frequently, but they often do not pay attention to the cleaning of the pillow core.In fact, the climate in summer is hot and humid, and the human body sweats a lot. The pillow is more likely to breed mold due to dampness. If it is not dried frequently, it will endanger people's health.

When people sleep, sweat stains, oil stains and other scalp secretions infiltrate the pillow core, and the damp pillow core becomes a breeding ground for various microorganisms.Mites, bacteria, and dust can also cause people to suffer from respiratory diseases, digestive tract diseases, skin diseases, etc.Some pillows are clean on the outside, but there is an unpleasant smell faintly on the pillow, which is why the pillow core is not dried frequently.

So, how can we keep the pillow clean?

1. Sun.Microbes are not easy to reproduce in a dry environment, and sunlight can kill most of them. It is best to dry the pillow once every half a month.

2. Wash.Synthetic or down filled pillows can be washed to remove dirt.

3. Change.Pillows with cores such as buckwheat husks and rushes are not suitable for washing, and it is best to replace them regularly.

People who suffer from respiratory, digestive tract or skin infectious diseases, as well as people with scabies and head lice will also bring bacteria, viruses or parasites into the pillow core, which may lead to cross-infection among family members.Such a family should pay more attention to the maintenance of the pillow core, and it must be exposed to the sun once every half a month.
