Post removing dust mites
I have had a mattress stored in my attic for one year and would like to begin using it again. I am concerned about the dust mites that may be on it. What is the best way to eliminate them? Would leaving it outside in the cold overnight (below 32 degrees) kill them?
Thanks for any suggestions.
