Tips to Preven
Future Bed Bug Infestations
Bed bugs can return if preventive measures aren’t taken. Salisbury’s Premium Pest Control shares expert advice to keep your home or business bed bug-free. Follow these simple steps to minimize the risk of future infestations:
Inspect second-hand Items: Check used furniture, clothing, or luggage for bed bugs before bringing them into your home. Even small infestations can spread quickly. ·
Use Protective Covers: Encase mattresses and box springs in bed bug-proof covers to block hiding spots. This prevents bed bugs from settling in. ·
Maintain Cleanliness: Regularly vacuum carpets, rugs, and furniture, and wash bedding in hot water. A clean environment reduces bed bug hiding places. ·
Avoid Clutter: Minimize clutter in bedrooms and living areas to reduce potential hiding spots. Fewer hiding places make it harder for bed bugs to thrive.
