Wash all bedding items like sheets, pillowcases, blankets, and mattress covers in hot water (at least 130°F or 54°C) and then dry them on high heat. This will eliminate any bed bugs or eggs in the bedding.
Check and clean the areas around the mattress carefully, such as bed frames, headboards, nightstands, and baseboards. Use a vacuum and steam cleaner to get rid of any bed bugs or eggs that may be hiding in these places.
Watch your mattress and bedding regularly for any signs of bed bugs in the future. If you see any signs of bugs coming back, clean again and think about calling a pest control expert for help.
Avoid getting bed bugs again by regularly cleaning your mattress and the area around it with a vacuum and steam cleaner. Use special covers for your mattress and pillows that keep bed bugs away. Check any used furniture or clothes for bed bugs before bringing them home.
By following these instructions and keeping good hygiene habits, you can successfully remove bed bugs from your mattress and avoid future problems with them.
