What are the benefits of drying quilts in winter
1. It can kill bacteria
The quilt receives the ultraviolet radiation, reduces carries the bacterium, reduces the cold and so on epidemic disease occurrence.
2. Reduce mites on quilt
The best nutrients and environment for mites are the skin metabolized by human body and warm and humid environment. Although drying the quilt can not completely kill the mites, it can reduce the mites on the quilt. After exposure to the sun and shaking off, the mites are not easy to reproduce.
3. Improve the warmth retention of quilt
Through exposure to the sun, the quilt has high air content, and the insulation effect will be better.
4. Keep the quilt dry
Prevent mildew and skin disease.
5. Prevent the quilt from mildew
In particular, the use of bedding, due to people in the process of sleep sweat, a long time will make the bedding more humid, easy to mildew, not only smell bad, but also easy to produce cotton louse, Mucor spores. Therefore, more attention should be paid to the frequent air drying and timely removal of moisture and bacteria in the cotton wadding, which can not only increase the service life of bedding, but also increase its elasticity and warmth retention ability, which is conducive to human health.
6. Keep the quilt dry
We cover the quilt every day, and the human body has sweat and body odor. Drying the quilt can remove the moisture and smell in the quilt and keep the quilt dry. It is good for our health and comfortable to sleep.
7. It can reduce the harmful substances on the quilt
As a result of all kinds of wood-based panels and wooden furniture contain harmful formaldehyde and other chemical substances, for a long time, the bedding inside will naturally absorb a large amount of free formaldehyde. Therefore, before using the bedding, take it to the sun to bask in. Under the action of ultraviolet rays and air flow, it can not only kill the harmful microorganisms in the bedding, but also make the free formaldehyde evaporate. It can also make the fiber of the quilt stretch and fluffy, so that people can sleep comfortably and safely.
Problems to be noticed in drying quilts
1. Don't pat after drying the quilt
Many people like to take a picture of the quilt after drying, feeling that it can remove the dust and make the quilt fluffy and soft. Experts say this method is not scientific. After drying the quilt, a lot of warm air is stored between the fibers, so the cover is fluffy, warm and dry. If you beat the cotton wadding hard, you will beat the warm air out of the cotton wadding, making the fluffy degree drop.
After beating, the fiber will break and agglomerate easily. Therefore, after drying the quilt, just brush the surface gently with a soft brush to remove the floating dust.
2. Don't spend too much time drying the quilt
Usually bask in bedding to smell commonly known as "the smell of the sun", in fact, it is a smell of cellulose oxidative damage. The longer the exposure time, the more serious the damage of cellulose, the lower the warmth retention. Studies have shown that people with quilt temperature between 32 and 34 in autumn and winter are most likely to fall asleep. The time for drying quilts is usually between 11:00 p.m. and 2:00 p.m., and it is enough to dry for one or two hours. The quilts are easy to absorb moisture, so we should put them away as soon as possible, not as long as possible.
