It does not matter how much you love hygiene and cleanliness, all these things fade away once you are welcomed by bed bugs, especially when you sleep at night. It requires complete attention from your side to get rid off these tiny disturbing creatures. Using chemicals to treat them is not a good idea as it may affect your health. So, using organic ways to fight bugs is the best way to approach the problem. Here are some basic tips to deal with them.
Washing the bedding material should be your first step. Firstly, take out all of your quilts, pillows, bedding and blanket from the bed and other storage space.
Clean the area properly and use a new wallpaper to cover storage space. Clean all the washable stuff with hot water using organic laundry cleaning solution.
Dry them properly for enough time under the sun. Now, pack all the stuff in sealed plastic bags for storage. Lack of oxygen in sealed bags will do the rest.
Your next step will be to clean the surrounding space. Clean all sides of the mattress with the help of an upholstery attachment on the vacuum. Apart from it, also clean the surrounding areas near the bed. Use steam cleaner’s solution and add one cup of white vinegar. You can use hot tap water too for the rest of the container. This extremely heated solution will do wonders for you. Now, all you are required to do is to let the floor and mattress dry and soon, you will be able to sleep well.
