other particles that you leave on it whenever you use it.

Certain things will affect how often
you should clean your pillow. For example, if you wear clothes whenever you
sleep, you do not need to clean the pillow as regularly as expected.
Your clothes will be the barrier
against sweat and bacteria, so your pillow will not get as dirty as expected.
Other factors that will affect the cleanliness of your pillow are the
following:

Having pets at home.
Your pets may use your pillow, and if this is the case, the backrest pillows
would need to be cleaned more often.

Using the pillow on
your bed means that you are going to use it more often as compared to using it
on your couch.

affect how clean the pillow is going to be. If you often take a shower before
sleeping, there is a big chance that your pillow will be cleaner than most.

mentioned above and decide when you should clean your pillow. Just remember

Washing and Cleaning Your Pillow
Spilling something on your pillow will require you to clean it immediately. The faster that you clean it,
the smaller the chances that the stain will stay on the pillow for a long time.
Use a warm damp cloth to clean your
pillow. Some stains are more stubborn than usual. There are fabric stain
removers that you can use to clean the stains properly.
It will be different when there are
mold and mildew stains. You need to disinfect the pillow by removing the stains
with the use of a sponge and a mild detergent.
You can stop scrubbing the surface
when the stains become completely removed. The tricky process here is making
sure that the pillows will be air-dried.

clean it area by area with the use of the right soap and water.

would require more patience and effort to ensure that the pad will be free
from detergent.

not fit your dryer or will be ruined when you place them on the dryer.
