freshstart, guess where the fluid from the nightsweats are now? I was lead to links about what's in your mattress, and you can lose up to a pint of fluid a night! The shikifutons are folded daily and aired out in the sun regularly to prevent mold. Can't do that with a mattress. People who keep their regular mattress on a wood floor may have mold growing.

We get really fast furry spiders here, as well as those little black bugs with pinchers. For now I'll continue sleeping on the boxspring.
