In order to properly rid a mattress of bed bugs, the following measures should be taken:
Determine the Areas That Are Infested: Perform a thorough inspection of your mattress to look for any indications of bed bugs, such as live bugs, shed skins, eggs, or black marks that are caused by bed bug feces.
When vacuuming the mattress, use a vacuum cleaner that has a brush attachment to completely vacuum the whole surface of the mattress. Pay special attention to seams, tufts, and corners, which are potential hiding places for bed bugs. Immediately dispose of the vacuum bag by placing it in a plastic bag that has been sealed and placing it outside of your property.
Cleaning with Steam: Steam cleaning is an efficient approach for eliminating bed bugs and the eggs that they lay around. At a temperature of at least 130 degrees Fahrenheit or 54 degrees Celsius, use a steam cleaner with a high-temperature setting to steam the whole surface of the mattress, paying particular attention to the regions where bed bugs are most likely to hide.
After the mattress has been cleaned and dried, it should be encased in a mattress encasement or protector that is equipped to prevent bed bugs from entering the mattress. For the purpose of preventing new infestations and capturing any bed bugs that may still be present inside the mattress, these coverings are created.
