Can bed bugs live in foam bed padding? Can they live in bedding, or do they mostly live in carpets? Also does keeping the light on at night prevent them from coming out? Can they be drowned if they are in bedding?
Bed bugs live in the bed. Doesn't matter what kind of mattress. They can get in your clothes as well. Leaving the lights on at night doesn't make a difference. If you have bed bugs you have bed bugs. You have to throw out the mattress, call a professional cleaning service and ask to come clean the room (bugs can not be vacuumed. You have to call a cleaning service). You have to take your clothes and get all of them steam pressed. Washer and dryer does not get rid of bed bugs. It is a messy clean up. Get on it before they get worse. And no, you can't drown them.
