Bloody memory foam mattress...

Is it possible to get the blood out? I have cleaned it as much as I can. There wasn't any Vanish in the house so I used Simple Solution, which is an enzyme based cleaner used for clearing up after dogs. I have also turned the mattress. I think you are only supposed to use one side, but I thought it would be better to let the air get to it on the bottom instead of covering it with a mattress protector, sheets etc. Is this sensible???

No as you are not meant to get them wet at ALL. You need a cotton mattress protector.

What stupid things they are then. I have a mattress protector. A big proper mattress protector, but not the kind you are not supposed to use with these mattresses.

If they are so feeble that they cannot get even damp, I really wonder if they are not made from candyfloss.

They aren't feeble - you just need to treat them with care Wink
