Sleep Tips Website Giving Away Free Pillows to College Students
SleepBetter.org study aims to find out what gross stuff lives inside old college-bound pillows.
RICHMOND, VA, March 28, 2011 /Home and Garden PR News/ -- Dust mites, fungus and skin cells .. oh my! SleepBetter.org is conducting an ambitious scientific study of pillows and mattress pads belonging to enrolled college students, and they're going to give away FREE bedding in the process.
The sleep tips, news, and information website is collecting 100 sample pillows and 20 mattress pads, all from students attending a U.S. college or university in the fall of 2011. The goal is to find out what's inside the items on which these students would have been sleeping. A third-party testing lab will measure the amount of bacteria, molds, yeasts, fungi and dust-mites in the items, but will not test for any specific or personal human residues.
In order to conduct the study, SleepBetter needs bedding and they're asking for help. Any college student with a pillow or mattress pad they want to donate to the cause should visit http://sleepbetter.org/home/back-to-college-pillowcollectform/ and sign up. Each individual whose pillow or mattress pad is chosen for the research will receive a brand new replacement, at no cost, from Carpenter Co.
The deadline to sign up for the study is 11:59 p.m. (EDT) on April 29, 2011.
