Bedsheets vs. Pillowcases: Hidden Health Risks Bedding gathers dust, a magnet for bacteria, spores, and allergens that can trigger health issues. Dust mites thrive on skin cells, heightening the danger. To ensure a healthy sleep space, wash bedding every ten days.

Pillowcases need even more regular cleaning since they contact your face, soaking up oils, makeup, and germs. Wash them weekly to dodge skin troubles and uphold hygiene.
