Insider’s Guide on How to Rid Your Home of Bedbugs
The Maids Columbus • Oct 17, 2014

Bedbugs are pests that infest bedrooms. Clutter, dust, and general forms of debris are some of the predisposing factors that promote their infestation. Here are some tips to help you get rid of bedbugs from your bedroom today. 

Pretreatment Procedure

All items that are infested or capable of transferring the bedbugs should be placed in an open area. Wash all personal items such as: stuffed animals, blankets, and pillows, inhot water to rid them of any bedbugs. Also, consider dismantling all bed frames to expose their hiding sites. 

Apply Insecticide to Mattresses and Other Affected Items

Bedbugs can easily hide inside the folds and seams of your mattress and footboard. Use a spray bottle to apply the insecticide all over the mattress. Choose insecticides that are environmentally friendly and safe to human and pests to avoid any regrets down the road. Wear protective clothing such as gas mask, gloves to protect your skin from the chemicals, as some of them can cause irritation and rashes. More often than not, dusts last longer than aerosols but it all depends on your personal preference and the amount of money that you intend to spend on this chore.

Finally, be sure to keep your bedroom tidy and well organized afterwards to solve this issue once and for all. And if you would like to hire a professional maid service to assist you with keeping your home clean, do not hesitate to contact The Maids of Columbus, Ohio.
