have tried several ways to rid bed bugs wash all clothing/bed sheets prof.spraying,bought even new beds bombing home and even steam cleaned everything.. there still around.
I removed the mattress and box springs, and took them outside to the patio. Used rubbing alcohol and perocside all over the mattress and box springs removed the lower covering of the box springs and use the same remedy with bedbug spray... left outside for two days. steam cleaned the carpet and wall around the carpet. I put bedbug killer in the steam cleaner. remove all bed clothing and drapers and put in the dry on high for 1 hour. Removed all clother from the closet and the same process using the cloth dryer for 30 minutes hung clothes outside overnight. cleaned all the walls and hard wood floors.. wax and sprayed. Remove all drawers from dressers and use alcohol there and spray..I had the misfortune of having someone rent a room from me and they knowing had bedbugs and roaches. Thjis was quite a trip. I streamed the hold house. so far so good. It had been 3 months and no sign of roaches or bedbugs. But I cleaned very day for a month and check the bed and clothes. so far so good....it was a mess....He gone, thank goodness.
3 ways at home are... Heat Since temperatures over 113 degrees are said to kill bed bugs, it is suggested to wash and dry clothing and linens at high temperatures. When living in a hot desert climate, you may hang your bedding and clothes in the beamin Rubbing Alcohol While not a definite fix, spraying rubbing alcohol where bed bugs thrive may contain the problem by killing some on contact Steam Machines It is not uncommon to see some pest control companies use steam treatments to deal with mattresses and other pieces of upholstered furniture. While very limited effectiveness is associated with this type of remedy, it shows great promise in treating items with less than ? inch of penetration. At home, one may use small steam cleaners to care for their mattresses and other bedding selections.
Bed Bugs make three bites to the host each and lay two eggs in each bite to keep the larva warm until they hatch which takes two weeks. You must burn down your house and the host, (the person bitten).
