Clever cleaning badass and Mum of two Carolina McCauley, shared her tips for keeping dust mites out of your pillow, and checking if your pillows have expired!

The mother of two, keeps both bedroom mattresses and pillows fresh by vacuuming the material cases and surface area weekly to avoid dust mites.

She also has a clever trick to determine if your pillow has passed its expiration date…

To check, simply fold the pillow in half and hold it down with both hands for at least 30 seconds.

If you let go, and the pillow springs back into shape and lays flat then it’s still okay to use!

It is recommended that a pillow is replaced every three years.
