After a steam clean, the key to getting rid of dirt and grime is going back over it with a vacuum, mop, or microfiber cloth.

Yes, in most cases it’s a good idea to wrap furniture in plastic to protect it from dirt, dust, and damage during storage.

It is worth it to clean a mattress regularly for several reasons. For one, you'll increase the usable life span of the mattress, saving you from buying new mattresses as frequently.
