Any garments that cannot be washed may need to be dry-cleaned or discarded as insecticides cannot be used on these materials. Infested sheets, linens, and garments should be washed and then dried in a household dryer on high heat (over 120 degrees F), as the heat will kill bed bugs. Labeling a mattress or covering with "Bed Bugs" is also helpful. If your mattress needs to be disposed of and replaced, be sure to cover the mattress with plastic before disposing to protect sanitation workers. You will also need to cover your box spring with a box spring encasement. If you have a mattress that is heavily infested, we recommend covering it with a bed bug proof mattress cover or bed bug mattress encasement before moving. Remember, every item left in the room must be treated in some way to get rid of hidden bedbugs so if you don't need it or love it, TOSS IT! Be sure to seal up the bags before carrying them out of the room to avoid transferring bedbugs to other parts of the home Grab a few trash bags and bag up anything you have decided you do not want to keep. It's time to take a hard look around the room. This is probably the hardest part for most folks, but whether you hire a pest control operator or do your own bedbug treatment, THIS STEP CANNOT BE SKIPPED. Step 1 - Prepare the space that needs to be treated. Preparing your room for a bed bug treatment is vital for its success.
