How can you legally sanitize bedding?

Answer 1

I don't know if this helps but this is what I came across when I searched this up: Definition of Bedding for legal sanitation: "Bedding" means any mattress, upholstered spring, sleeping bag, pad, comforter, cushion, pillow, decorative pillow, and any other padded or stuffed item designed to be or commonly used for reclining or sleeping. This definition includes dual purpose furniture such as studio couches and sofa beds. The term "mattress" does not include water bed liners, bladders or cylinders unless they contain padding or stuffing. The term "mattress" also does not include quilts and comforters made principally by hand sewing or stitching in a home or community workshop. Sanitize Bedding: Means treatment of secondhand bedding or previously used materials to be used in renovating for the destruction of pathogenic microorganisms and arthropods and the removal of dirt and filth. You can sanitize by a) vacuuming then wiping or misting a water/disinfectant spray of surfaces and letting dry then repeating or b) using a steam cleaner Legality: Found this for North Carolina- (maybe similar in other states?): This does not apply to bedding sold by the owner and previous user from the owner's home directly to a purchaser for the purchaser's own personal use unless the bedding has been exposed to an infectious or communicable disease.
