Removing Stains From Your Mattress and Other Furniture

First, check your manufacturer's warranty to see what it's 'stain policy' is. In some cases, it does in fact cover stain removal if the warranty has not expired yet. In either case, the stain will need to be attended to immediately. There are many different suggestions for removing stains from a mattress of any piece of upholstery, so results may vary.

Vomit

After solid matter has been removed:
Mix water with a disinfectant and spray the affected area or use mild detergent and apply to stained area.
Blot with dry paper towels or cloth.
Continue to blot and absorb until dry towels are no longer absorbing any of the stain.
Use an enzyme-based cleaner to blot, neutralize bacteria and remove the stain.
Take mattress outside and allow to dry in the sun.
If this does not work, more commercial alternatives and/or a professional cleaning service may need to be contacted.
