subject: How To Get Rid Of Bed Bugs As Fast As Possible! [print this page] It's a known fact that the bulk of people who have bed bug problems have no idea till the infestation becomes intensely large. These insects like to hide out in intensely deep cracks on bed mattresses and in walls and come out when it's time to feed. You may be wondering what their favorite food of choice is, well you guessed it! It's you! Since these bugs are warm blood feeding insects, you are number one on their meal list. Kind of gross huh? Here's how to get rid of bed bugs are quickly as humanly possible.
The first thing you should know is ways to elude them. Prevention is a great key to staying away from this problem. Have you been traveling lately? If that is so don't take the chance and spray down your bags with a bed bug spray (non toxic of course) so that they do not have chance to spread.
You will also have to clean your sheets at least a month. For many this is standard practice but the longer you wait to wash them the harder it is going to be to get rid of them.
If you do find a bed bug infestation, the only way to handle it is in a 3 step approach.
- Spray Them Dead
- Clean Them Away
- Steam The Mattress
You might want to spray them with the bed bug spray a few times before all of them are dead. There are normally more than you almost certainly think so be certain to spray your mattress down at least three or 4 times. After you have done this a few times clean away the dead insects and clean your mattress with mattress cleaning soap.
The last thing you would like to do in the 3 step process is to steam clean the bedding. This could guarantee everything is sanitary again and if there turns out to be any left alive this will definitely kill them off.
