Looking for potion for cleaning a mattress that has urine stains. Cannot take outside to dry, it’s been snowing🌨. Mattress is about 14 years old (sleep number, too).

Spray some peroxide on the stains and let dry. If that doesn't work mix baking soda and water into a paste and brush it into the stains and let sit until dry and then vacuum up the residue. To keep this from happening again, purchase a mattress paid with a plastic under liner. You can then throw it into the washing machine
If the mattress has side air vents, a portable steamer can be passed across for a few minutes to freshen from the inside out a very dry paste of baking soda on the stains, let sit for an hour, vacuum off and open the windows for awhile, spray with Febreeze or Lysol spray.

Melissa....I know this is not always easy but I love to get mine outside just to air but it's easier said than done!
