A mousepad or deskpad is something we use every single day — whether it’s for gaming, working, or just protecting your desk. Over time, dust, sweat, food crumbs, and even spilled drinks can build up on the surface. Not only does this look bad, but it can also affect the smooth glide of your mouse.
Luckily, cleaning your mousepad or deskpad is simple and only takes a few minutes. Here’s how to do it step by step.
What You’ll Need
-
A bathtub with warm water
-
Mild dish soap or hand soap
-
A soft cloth or sponge
-
A towel for drying
Step 1: Prep the Mousepad
Remove your mousepad or deskpad from your desk and shake off any loose crumbs or dust.
Step 2: Gentle Wash
Fill your bathtub with lukewarm water. Add a few drops of mild dish soap and mix it in.
Place the mousepad in the soapy water and use your hands, a soft cloth, or sponge to gently scrub the surface. Focus on areas with stains or where your wrists rest the most.
Step 3: Rinse
Drain the soapy water and rinse the pad under clean water until all soap is gone. Make sure there’s no residue left.
Step 4: Dry Properly
Pat the mousepad dry with a towel to remove excess water. Then lay it flat on a clean towel and wrap the pad up in it. Avoid direct sunlight or heaters — this can warp the material.
Quick Tips for Maintenance
-
Clean your mousepad every 2–4 weeks if you use it daily.
-
Wipe spills immediately.
-
Avoid harsh chemicals.
Final Thoughts
Keeping your mousepad or deskpad clean not only makes your setup look better but also helps your mouse perform smoothly for gaming or work. With just a little care, your pad will stay fresh and last longer.
