5. Prevent the quilt from mildew
Especially for the bedding in use, because of the sweat stains people emit during sleep, the bedding will become more humid and prone to mildew over a long period of time. It not only smells bad, but also easily produces cotton louse and Mucor spore. Therefore, we should pay more attention to the frequent airing and timely remove the moisture and bacteria in the cotton wadding, which can not only increase the service life of the bedding, but also increase its elasticity and warmth retention ability, and is conducive to human health.

Problems to be noticed in drying quilt:
1. Don't pat after drying the quilt
Many people like to take a picture of the quilt after drying, thinking that it can remove dust and make the quilt fluffy and soft. Experts say this method is not scientific. After drying the quilt, a large amount of warm air is stored between the fibers, so the cover is fluffy, warm and dry. If you pat the batting hard, you will beat the warm air out of the batting to reduce the fluffy degree.
After beating, the fiber will be broken and easy to agglomerate. Therefore, after drying the quilt, just brush the surface with a soft brush once to remove the floating dust.
2. Don't dry the quilt for too long
Generally speaking, the smell of sun is the smell of oxidized cellulose. The longer the exposure time, the more serious the damage of cellulose will be, and the lower the warmth retention will be. Research shows that people with quilt temperature between 32-34 are most likely to fall asleep in autumn and winter. The time for drying quilts is usually between 11:00 at noon and 2:00 in the afternoon. The quilts are easy to absorb moisture, so they should be collected as soon as possible, rather than the longer the time, the better.
