Many hardworking housewives have the habit of bask in the quilt, especially the rare warm sun in winter, which makes people have the impulse to spread their quilts in the sun. But most people will make mistakes in some self-righteous habits. The following are the main points for your reference.
1. The drying time is too long and the times are too frequent.
In winter, the sunshine time is short, so it will give people the feeling of "sunshine is rare", so many people like to get up on weekends and move the quilt to the terrace until sunset at night. In fact, the best drying time is 1 1 until 2 pm. Usually, cotton fibers will expand to a certain extent after being exposed to the sun for three or four hours, which has received a good drying effect. However, if the drying time is too long and the times are too many, the cotton fiber will become shorter and fall off, and the warmth of the quilt will be greatly reduced. Especially duvets and wool quilts, because their materials contain grease, these substances will undergo chemical changes after exposure, resulting in peculiar smell, while the exposed silk will destroy protein components in the materials, leading to discoloration and cracking, and so on. They only need to be dried in a dry and ventilated place for one or two hours.
2. the quilt is not divided inside and outside.
Generally speaking, when drying, it is best to turn your back on the sun, protect the material of the quilt cover, and let the quilt directly contact the sun to get the best drying effect. If you consider that there is too much dust falling and you are used to putting the quilt cover outward, you should cover it with a thin cloth to protect it, especially the quilt made of chemical fiber fabric, so as not to be damaged by high temperature.
Slap hard after drying
The traditional idea has always been that quilts left outdoors for a long time must be slapped hard to be clean and fluffy. But you know what? The fiber of cotton is thick and short, which is very easy to decompose. If you hit it hard with a stick, it will break the fiber into dusty cotton wool and run out. The quilt made of synthetic fiber is thin and long, and it is easy to deform. Once slapped, the fiber shrinkage plate cannot be recovered. The duvet can't be slapped, otherwise the down will be broken into tiny "feather dust", and the warmth retention effect will be inevitably affected. For the sake of hygiene, sweep the dust off the quilt with a broom and you can take it home safely.
Storage and maintenance
The maintenance mentioned here is mainly in the aspects of washing and collection methods after winter. Because quilts are usually divided into pure cotton, polyester cotton, fiber, silk, acrylic, down and wool, we should choose different methods according to different materials.
Question 2: How to wash duck down? First of all, I sell down jackets, but I should be able to tell you the washing method of duck down on your question. Please forgive me for the bad places.
First of all, hand washing duck down clothes is the most reasonable, because it can avoid damage to clothes by machine washing or dry cleaning. But it doesn't mean that you can't use machine washing or dry cleaning, and there will be quality problems, that is, consumers wash in the wrong way, and manufacturers will not bear such so-called non-quality problems. Moreover, it is also important that the water temperature should not exceed 30. If measured by hand, it is the normal water temperature without freezing hands in winter. Too high temperature will damage duck down, thus affecting its warmth and fluffy.
Second, the specific washing method: First of all, if you don't use the duck down quilt, it is best to put on the quilt cover, because it is enough to clean the quilt cover directly. After all, considering that the quilt is very big and heavy, it is very inconvenient to wash. If used at present, be sure to wash the quilt directly; I suggest the general method: if there is a big washbasin at home, put the quilt in and soak it directly. Detergent should be professional down jacket washing liquid. If not, you can use ordinary laundry detergent and then use household detergent. In the process, you can brush lightly with a soft brush, then rinse with clean water, and finally dehydrate with a semi-automatic washing machine. Because if you twist it by hand, it won't move at all, hehe!
Third, the last step is to restore the down to a fluffy state, just like before washing. That is, when the quilt is almost dry, gently pat the quilt with your hand or stick to make the down inside evenly distributed and fluffy. You're finished. It's complicated to say, but it only takes a few steps to operate. Try it quickly! )
Question 3: How to maintain the duck down quilt? Lesson 1: Be sure to wash by hand.
On the inside of the down jacket, there is a small label printed with maintenance and washing instructions. Careful people will find that 90% of down jackets are marked with hand washing, and dry cleaning is forbidden, because the liquid medicine used for dry cleaning will affect the warmth and make the fabric aging. Machine washing and spin-drying, twisted down jackets easily lead to uneven thickness of fillers, which makes clothes deformed and affects beauty and warmth.
Experience 2: 30-degree water temperature flushing.
First, soak the down jacket in cold water for 20 minutes, so that the inside and outside of the down jacket are fully wet. Dissolve the detergent in warm water of 30 degrees, then soak the down jacket in it for a quarter of an hour, and then gently brush it with a soft brush. Warm water should also be used for rinsing, which can help the detergent to fully dissolve in water and make the down jacket rinse more cleanly.
Experience 3: the concentration of washing powder should not be too high.
If you must use washing powder to clean down jackets, it is usually appropriate to put 4 to 5 tablespoons of washing powder in two washbasins. If the concentration is too high, it is difficult to wash off, and the residual washing powder in down will affect the fluffy degree of down and greatly reduce the warmth.
Experience 4: It is best to make stem neutral detergent.
Neutral detergents do the least harm to clothes and down. If alkaline detergent is used, the residual detergent will cause damage to the down jacket, and it is easy to leave white marks on the surface of the clothes, which will affect the appearance. To remove the residual alkaline detergent, rinse it twice, add two teaspoons of vinegar in warm water, and soak the down jacket for a while before rinsing. Vinegar can neutralize alkaline detergent.
Lesson 5: Don't screw it out.
Don't wring out the down jacket after washing. Water should be squeezed out and then laid flat or hung to dry. Exposure and ironing are prohibited to avoid scalding clothes. After drying, you can pat it gently to make the down jacket fluffy and soft.
Four taboos for washing down jackets-

Correct washing method
First soak the down jacket in cold water for 2 minutes. Pour about two spoonfuls of washing powder into clean water with the water temperature of 20℃-30℃ and stir it evenly, then put it into a down jacket from which the squeezed water is taken out, soak it for 5- 10 minutes, take it out, lay it flat on a clean table, brush it gently from the inside out with a soft brush dipped in washing liquid, then rinse it twice with warm water at 30℃ and then rinse it with clean water for three times to completely remove the residual detergent. Gently dry the water on the rinsed down jacket with a dry towel and put it in the sun or in a ventilated place to dry. After drying, gently pat the surface of the garment with a stick to restore the original fluffy softness of the down jacket.

Question 5: Can the duvets be washed? How to clean it? Duvets can be washed with water, but don't wash them with water often. First, completely soak the duvet with clear water, then wring it out and soak it in soapy water at about 50℃ 10 minute. Then take out the duvet, flatten it and pat it dry slowly. Then use a neutral detergent, gently brush it with a brush, then clean it, dry it, pat it flat, and don't rub it when washing, otherwise it will affect the warmth. If you don't want to wash it, you can take it to the dry cleaner, which is much more convenient. You can't wash down too often. Generally, it can be washed once every 1-2 years and kept clean after washing. If you have washed it before, you don't have to wash it. Just hang it in the sun.

■ Skillfully remove animal and plant oil stains from clothes.
1, animal and vegetable oil stains are common stains on clothes and polar liquid stains. Such stains should be wiped or brushed with organic solutions such as solvent gasoline and tetrachloroethylene. When brushing, use a towel or cotton cloth to absorb the wiped stain solution in time to make it leave the surface of the clothes. Prevent some stains from remaining on the surface of clothes after the solution volatilizes, which will cause traces on the surface of clothes. If traces appear, they can be removed by repeated wiping or long-term brushing. You can also apply water to stains on clothes and spray them with a high-pressure spray gun.
2. After the clothes are contaminated by passive vegetable oil, squeeze some toothpaste at the stain, gently rub it a few times, and then rub it with clear water to remove the oil stain.
3. Turn over the fur coat. If you get oil stains, sprinkle some raw powder on the oil stains, and then brush along the fur with a brown brush until the oil stains are removed. Then beat the rough surface with something like rattan to remove the residual powder, so that the plush will be fluffy and clean.
4. If the ski shirt is stained with oil stains, mix a little batter with cold water and apply it to the oil stains. After a few hours, use a brush dipped in water to brush off the powder, and the oil stain will disappear.

What should I do? Just add a little white vinegar to the water when cleaning last time, and it will be gone when it is dry.

Question 10: How to clean the yellow feather pillow when it is dirty? Basic methods of cleaning and maintaining pillows
Even if you choose a comfortable pillow that is very suitable for your physical condition and sleeping habits, if you use improper methods in the daily washing and maintenance process, the pillow will be deformed and it will be difficult to sleep comfortably, greatly shortening the service life of the pillow.
* Never wash pillowcases frequently without washing pillows.
Some people clean pillowcases regularly, but never clean pillows. Because many people think that pillowcases are enough to protect pillows, as long as they are cleaned on time, pillows can be kept clean and hygienic. In fact, when we sleep, the saliva and sweat inadvertently shed will penetrate into the pillow, breed bacteria, cause allergies and diseases, so we should clean the pillow every 3 ~ 6 months.
* The correct way to wash pillows by hand.
1. Wash with mild washing powder.
2. Put the pillow into the washing powder solution, and constantly squeeze the pillow by hand until it is clean, and the excess washing liquid must be squeezed out.
3, clear water, until the pillow is rinsed clean, and finally squeeze out excess water.
4. Dry the pillow flat, it will be softer and fluffy.
* What should I pay attention to when washing pillows by machine?
1. Wash with mild detergent.
2, using a large washing machine, you can wash two pillows at the same time. If you can only accommodate one, you'd better add a towel to wash it together to balance the water flow.
3. If it is dried, the pillow will recover its original elasticity more easily and become softer and fluffy.
Tea pillow tea core should not be cleaned. Just cool it once a week or two, and it is not suitable for explosion!
It's unhealthy to sleep without maintaining the pillow.
Many people's pillows will be old forever after use, but if they are not properly maintained, the shelf life of the pillows will expire. Feather pillows should be dehumidified frequently, latex pillows should be washed in water, and bamboo charcoal pillows should be rejuvenated reliably in the sun bath. Unhealthy pillows not only affect the quality of sleep, but may even cause frequent "stiff neck".
Pillow fillers are more and more diverse, and bamboo charcoal pillows are the new favorite of health care. Huang Guoxiong, an associate researcher at the Forestry Experimental Institute of the Council of Agriculture, said that tea has the function of clearing away heat and toxic materials, sleeping on it can help blood circulation in the head, and it can also absorb moisture. Sunbathing once a month or two can help tea recover its function. Due to the heavy weight of tea,1.5-2.5kg is normal.
For users with drooling and short hair (easy to wear the pillow cloth), it is best to use a pillow towel to prolong the life of the pillow. Cai Rongzhan, an otolaryngologist, said that adding a pillow towel, changing frequently and isolating dandruff and dust will help to keep healthy.
When buying a pillow, you must try it before buying it. Try to lie down, put the pillow close to the shoulder line, try to simulate the real sleeping position, and then try whether it is equally comfortable after changing positions. It is best to lie down for 10 minutes or more.
The purpose of the pillow is to support the head and reduce the pressure on the shoulders and neck. For people who sleep on their side and lie flat, they can choose pillows with better support, such as latex pillows. Those who are used to sleeping on their stomachs need extra soft pillows to protect their necks, such as extra soft down pillows. People who snore should pay attention to the height of the pillow and try to keep the respiratory tract unobstructed.
