Question: How likely is it to bring roaches into my home via a used sofa sleeper? I purchased it at Goodwill in Manchester, MO.  I have not yet brought it into the house.  It is in my garage.  I plan to keep it in the garage and set off a couple of bug killing bombs.  Do you think this will ensure that we will not bring pests into our home?  My zip code is 63043.

ANSWER   A good thorough cleaning will probably be all that is needed. Open the sleeper, shake out the mattress, and vacuum the entire sofa.
