The right products make it easy to clean cots for bed. Remove any bedding such as blankets, sheets or toys that are cuddly and wash them according the instructions of the manufacturer. Then, vacuum the cot and its mattress, paying particular attention to corners and crevices. A mattress protector can also aid in reducing the buildup of dust mites, bacteria, and other germs.

Next step, use a soft washcloth moistened with a baby-safe cleaner spray or a natural stain removal spray to wipe down the cot. Use a clean, fresh cloth regularly to rinse off soapy residue and keep the surface as clean as it can be. If the mattress has staining you can use a soft scrub brush to remove them. Add a small amount of baking soda to help eliminate lingering odours. Always test a small section of the mattress to ensure that the cleaning product is safe for your child.
