Eliminating bedbugs may seem to be a daunting task when you first find them in a home. But it's possible to totally rid yourself of bed bugs without hiring a costly professional team. As long as you've got patience, perseverance, and knowledge, bedbug eradication can absolutely be done.

A thorough cleaning is the first step you must take in getting rid of bedbugs. Problem areas include furniture, closets, hampers, and of course bedding. Carpets and crevices are convenient hiding places for bed bugs. All potential nesting sites should be identified and cleaned.

Washable items like linens must be laundered in hot water. Items that can't be washed must be wrapped in plastic, then placed under the direct sun. The reason you need to expose infested items to heat is that temperatures of at least 120 degrees Fahrenheit are necessary to kill the bedbugs and the eggs too.

The second step in getting rid of bedbugs is to set traps for rogue bugs you may have missed during your initial sweep. Sticky traps, which can also be used as mouse traps, are a good way to catch roaming bugs. You may also use natural insecticides like Boric Acid around door frames. It is not advisable to use insecticides in or around bedding or clothes hampers because they may be a danger to your health.

The best way to get rid of your bug problem is, avoiding techniques that are a total waste of time. For instance, using a aerosol pesticides or bug bombs will not work for bed bug infestation. Also know that high temperatures can help to decrease a bugs life span, but, very cold whether will effect the infestation if the area stays below freezing for two weeks or more.

If these techniques do not work in your home, you may have to consider hiring a professional exterminator after all. However, often times these methods will work and should not be taken for granted. Be careful about "bug treatment sprays" that are commonly sold online. Many of these do not come with proper instructions or guarantees that they will be safe to use.
