It is an often dreaded chore, and especially when you are alone to be able to do it. Changing your sheets can, in fact, sometimes be an ordeal for many of us, and become a real nightmare. However, we must stick to it since changing your sheets is necessary for hygiene and health reasons. Not changing them often enough can lead to dust mites and bedbugs, as well as fungal infections and skin irritations.
However, the frequency of changing the sheets is not always the same depending on whether you take a shower before going to bed or not. There sweat is also one of the factors that will determine when you need to change your sheets, as well as the presence of a pet on the bed.

A 5-step method
This method called technique of “burritos” allows you to put a duvet cover in 2 minutes flat, whether for single beds or double beds. This is also a good tip to show children so they can learn how to change their sheets. This technique is broken down into 5 steps. Firstly, it is necessary lay your duvet cover inside out on the bed, placing the opening at the foot of the mattress. Then simply cover it with your duvet making sure it lies flat. The four corners of the duvet must be well aligned with those of the cover. To do this, you can use clothespins or safety pins.
Once these steps are done, position yourself at the head of the bed before rolling up the comforter and duvet cover tightly like a burrito, whose name is given to this method. Once you get a nice roll, bring out the top corners by running your hands inside the cover. You should now see the outside of your cover. To finish, all you have to do is roll out your “burrito” to the head of the bed. And voila !
