Question:

Can bed bugs attack a matress on a loft bed?

My parents have bed bugs in their room and bed.I don't wanna get it,I have a loft bed. (its like a bunk bed but with only the top bunk) Can they get me if I sleep high up in my loft bed???

Answer:

If they get on you, they will get in your loft bed, however, they probably wont get up there on their own.
Yes. If it has a metal frame you might be safer but they can climb up wood or up the walls.
Bed bugs can climb up walls and fall on to the bed from the ceiling or by climbing the walls. I'd suggset minimizing the number of ways they can get to the bed. For example, but double sided tape around each bed leg. You can also wear tight fitting clothes to bed and minimize exposed skin areas. Some bed bugs can also be repelled with a natural skin spray. See resource for details on all.
