What should I do with my belongings during treatment for bed bugs?

When dealing with bed bugs, it is essential to take the right steps to protect your belongings during treatment. First, you should carefully inspect all items for signs of bed bugs, including furniture, clothing, and personal belongings. It is advisable to wash and dry all washable items on high heat, as this process can effectively kill bed bugs and their eggs. Additionally, you can vacuum your belongings thoroughly, especially in areas where bed bugs are commonly found, such as seams of mattresses or crevices in furniture. Next, consider sealing non-washable items in airtight plastic bags or containers to prevent bed bugs from infesting them during treatment. It is important to keep these items sealed until the bed bug treatment is completed. Some individuals also find it helpful to isolate furniture from walls and each other, creating space for treatment products to work effectively. You may want to review any specific guidance provided by the pest control professionals. They may have particular recommendations tailored to your situation.
