An Organic Mattress Worth Investing in When looking for an environmental approach to your bedroom, recycling and organic should be the way to go. Bedding and mattresses are a huge issue in the landfills and coming up with a solution for this problem is a must. Beds can last twenty or more years, and I strongly suggest to take care of them properly. My suggestion if you are not a wealthy individual and can not afford to shop for an organic bed, is to purchase one second hand and properly clean and disinfect the mattress appropriately with an organic cleanser that has anti bacterial properties to the solution, and let it dry. Summer months or warmer months is usually a better option, this way you can place the mattress outside to dry quicker. One of the best investments in a book that I own and that I have discovered is called Green Leaders. I have located a few businesses offering a green bed to purchase, as well as other bedding such as sheets and pillows, but they are very expensive but with good reason. Hastens Sweetdreamzzz
