Sacramento Movers Blog About Preventing Bed Bugs

PRLog (Press Release) - Oct. 4, 2012 - In a recent blog post Sacramento Movers shared some ideas for spotting, ridding and preventing bed bugs. Although to some it may seem like a funny little night time saying, bed bugs actually do bite and they leave itchy little marks on the skin. These are similar in size, appearance, and itchiness to mosquito bites but often you will notice them in the morning after a night’s sleep. While you may be helpless to ward of these critters in sleep, there are some steps you can take to get rid of or prevent bed bugs from spreading in your home.

How to prevent them? Since clutter is a great place for bed bugs to hide, begin with narrowing down the clutter in your home. Whenever you wash your bed sheets, inspect the sheets and the mattress for any small black spots. Vacuum regularly. Avoid bringing used or second hand furniture into your home and thoroughly clean your suitcases and clothing after traveling in case they may have picked up bed bugs in hotel rooms. When you move, protect your mattresses by using mattress bags. You don’t want to expose your mattress to these critters while moving it in and out of the house or loading it on the moving truck. You can also permanently keep mattresses and sofas in bed bug proof mattress covers available at home improvement stores. These protect from bed bugs, dust mites, and allergy triggers.
