A mattress protector reduces the chances of any oils, liquids, or moisture soaking through onto your mattress and leaving long-lasting damage. They vary in absorbency, but a good quality mattress cover will take the brunt of all the dirt and contaminants, and then it’s easily washed – so you don’t have to worry about what’s lurking in your sheets. On the topic of things that lurk – a mattress cover can be a great way to help prevent dust mites appearing in your bed. Some mattress protectors are made with special fabric that is impermeable to dust mites, meaning you can sleep soundly knowing you’re not sharing your bed with these little critters unknowingly!
