   .Many pillows are washable and I wash mine every year but sometimes I put them outside on a nice day to air off. If they are stained wash them . If they are feather ones these are not washable and need to be aired off regular . If feather ones are stained either get new or recover, which is a messy job.

   I change mine twice a year. I get rid of them when they go flat.

   I fabreeze mine with the antibacterial kind of fabreeze when I wash my sheets (usually once a week) and wash the removable cover once a month -- basically when I remember. A good pillow will last a long time -- just get rid of them when they no longer provide support.

   I set mine on the hood of my car on a nice day every six months or so to air them out, but there are pillows on my bed that I've had for years - as long as they're not flat, I don't see why you should get rid of them.
