There are few things more discomforting, unnerving, or outright repugnant than bedbugs. They burrow under your mattress, bed frame, or box spring and are just an overall nuisance. Arab Termite and Pest Control of Cincinnati in Ohio has been providing premier bedbug treatment since 1929, and they can fix the problem.

Here, they provide a few tips to control spreading while waiting for bedbug treatment:

  • bedbug treatmentWash Clothes Diligently: Bedbugs don't only hide in your beds. Because they don't have nests, they've learned to move and adapt quickly. That means they can travel from beds to furniture, luggage, and clothing. To prevent them from proliferating on your clothing, launder your clothes on the hottest setting for 30 minutes or longer. If you're currently grappling with an infestation, store all laundered clothes in sealed plastic bags. 
  • Clean Your Bedding Thoroughly: While bedbugs are highly adaptive and can burrow in fabrics all over your home, their favorite hiding place is the bed. To control the spreading, clean bedding, linens, and pillow cases in hot water, drying them on the highest setting. 
  • Don’t Throw Out Your Furniture: A bedbug infestation can feel like a miniature natural disaster. However, that doesn't mean you need to start trashing your possessions. Throwing away mattresses or furniture isn’t necessary, and it might not even get rid of the problem. Most of the time, exterminators can save your furnishings. 

While infestations remain one of the most feared and reviled domestic experiences, calling professional exterminators right away for bedbug treatment will substantially cut down on stress and collateral damage.
