Removing Coffee and Tea Stains From Your Mattress

  1. Blot stain with a damp cloth or paper towel until no more liquid can be absorbed.
  2. If the stain was caused by coffee, then sprinkle baking soda on the affected area. If the stain was caused by tea, then sprinkle white vinegar on the stained area (or a combination of both for stains caused by other beverages). Allow the powder or vinegar to soak up leftover liquid for 15 minutes.
  3. Using a clean cloth, lightly rub the area in a circular motion. The stain should start to lift out.
  4. With a vacuum, vacuum up the baking soda or vinegar from the mattress.
  5. Repeat the process until stain is completely gone.

Preventing Future Stains

To help prevent future stains, use absorbent coasters or trays for cups and glasses when enjoying beverages on your mattress. Additionally, you should consider investing in a waterproof mattress protector that will help protect your mattress from any liquids.

Wrapping Up

Coffee and tea stains on your mattress don't have to be permanent. Follow steps above to quickly and easily remove them without damaging your mattress. It's always best to act quickly to prevent the stain from setting in, and to use absorbent mats, trays, or coasters to help protect your mattress from any future spills.
