Bed bugs in Comforters

Bed bugs take advantage of their flattened bodies by hiding in narrow places, emerging at night to find a host.  Bed bugs can remain undetected in walls and crevices, box springs, cabinets, suitcases, carpets, books, baseboards, clothing and behind picture frames. Comforters are also inviting to bed bug populations.

To remove bed bugs from a comforter, steam your mattress and all bed coverings. Washing your comforter in hot, soapy water may also prove effective, as heat kills bed bugs. If your comforter cannot be washed, have it dry cleaned or put it in your dryer on high heat.

If you believe you have removed all bed bugs from your bedding, protect your clean linens by sealing them in durable plastic bags. Be sure to seal off any holes. Avoid insecticide sprays, as these are often ineffective and can produce stains and an unpleasant odor.

While adult insects are affected by the above methods, their eggs may still remain in your bedding or mattress. Bed bug eggs are white in color and are approximately the size of a single grain. Contact your pest control professional to address a bed bug infestation.
