Get Rid of Bed Bugs
2
Finding the Bed Bugs
  • Dismantle the bed and stand the components on
    end. 

3
  • Bed bugs also hide among items stored underneath
    beds.

4
  • Empty nightstands and dressers.
  • Examine them inside and out, then tip them over
    to inspect the woodwork underneath. 

5
  • Check upholstered chairs and sofas.
  • Pay close attention to the seams, tufts, skirts
    and crevices beneath cushions. Sofas can be major
    bed bug hotspots when used for sleeping.

Treating and Controlling Bed Bugs
  • Spray bed bugs with rubbing alcohol.  This kills
    them on the spot. Use the rubbing alcohol and a
    dish brush to kill the visible eggs, then call an
    exterminator.

8
  • Point steam on them. 
  • You may also convert a simple electric kettle to
    a steam machine by attaching a flexible tube.
    Steam should kill all bedbugs and the eggs.
    Thoroughly spray steam at all corners and seams.

9
  • Vacuum your house. This will remove bugs and eggs
    from mattresses, carpet, walls and other surfaces.

10
  • Consider using insecticides.  Many readily
    available aerosol pesticide sprays will cause bed
    bugs to scatter making eradication more
    difficult. Dust formulations may be used to treat
    wall voids and attics.

11
  • Enlist the services of a professional pest
    control firm. Experienced companies know where to
    look for bed bugs, and have an assortment of
    management tools at their disposal.
