Will The Stain Of Urine On Mattresses Cause Health Problems?

I have two sons that pee the bed almost every night. I spray the mattress with Lysol, but my husband and I are concerned that the urine left inside the mattress is a health problem. Can it turn into one? We can t just keep buying mattresses!

Hello,

The urine in the mattress will help bacteria develop and the moist and warmness that is developed can make mold develop.
This can make infection happen and also allergy happen.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
