Do you make your bed as soon as you get up?

As fleurpepper says, not if, Maisie, the cat is on it! When she appears somewhere else I would turn it back for a while but I don't like it remaining unmade all day. I didn't pay a lot for a beautiful quilt cover to hide it.

Mines aired with open windows quilt turned back and pillows off usually till lunch time but its always made before bed.

I used to work with a woman who slid out of bed and made it straight away.
She said it "kept the heat in" 😬

Ours are aired, with a window open, at least until the mattress and pillows feel cold!

Depends if the cat is on it- couldn't possibly disturb him, could I? (as this morning). I always air if the weather is good- the proper way, on the window sill and turn over regularly

I was taught to air it, but must confess it often gets forgotten until bedtime, and then (daft cow) I make it before I get in

Turn the duvet back to air and make the bed later in the day.

This usually ends up being when we go to bed if it is a work day. At weekend I would make it in the afternoon.

I leave the duvet right back until the bed is cool again. Whether or not I get around to 'making' it depends on whether or not I am back in that room again during the day with time to spare. If not, it doesn't bother me.

Regarding bedbugs - if there were already any in the bed, I think you would know about it and would have a big problem on your hands, and I really dont think that just airing the bed would eradicate them.

Definitely give it a good airing, bedroom window open, make bed at some point later in the day. It’s annoying if for some reason it doesn’t get done till bed time but it only takes a minute.

Air it well with window open then make it, don’t like an unmade bed all day.

I air it for a few hours then make the bed. I would hate to have an unmade bed all day

No I pull the duvet right back to air the bed, in doing so, I believe millions of bed bugs die from being exposed to a lower temperature yuk! I do smooth the bed over and plump up the pillows, I make it good a few hours later, I don't like looking at an unmade bed.

No, I fold the duvet back and smooth the bottom sheet, open the windows and let it air. It stays like that until I go to bed.

It is not advised to make a bed immediately, you will be trapping sweat and heat, a great environment for bedbugs.

This…

I prefer to air it first

Definitely not. Duvet & throw thrown back to air when I get up. Bed made and Electric blanket on half an hour before bed time.
