How to bed bug proof your mattress covers
to protect against bed bugs and other insects

•Are you sick and tired of bed bugs in your home?
•Can’t sleep because of their itchy and irritating bites?

Then you are not alone. Bed bugs have become a huge problem for most houses in America, especially those in the New York City. This problem has increased to such a point that people living in cities like New York or Philadelphia are almost baffled at the sheer amount in which these bugs are infesting in their homes. This is an unprecedented situation for most people as they have not seen bed bugs problem during most part of their lives.

Until 1980s, bed bugs used to be something we found in dingy motels or third world countries. But the present onslaught of bed bugs has brought this problem very close to home or rather inside home (quite literally).

In fact, only in the last one decade, the number of bed bugs infestations in big cities has increased by 500%. The reason behind such drastic increase in the presence of these pests is an issue of debate for many. Some people blame this on the decreasing levels of hygiene and sanitary in our cities, while others attribute this to the fact that the human population is growing at much higher rates which is increasing crowd in the cities and decreasing the size of our homes and crowded spaces and cramped homes are a breeding ground for various pests including bed bugs.

Some others think that it is result of the dynamic change in environment which has increased breeding capabilities of these pests. Whatever might be the reason behind it, but one thing is for sure, bed bugs are annoying! You can’t easily see them or catch them, but they still make their presence felt in quite a clear manner. Even though bed bugs are found in many places around the house like couch, cushions, chair seats etc., but our bed is the one place where they have a field day. Since we stay in our bed for hours in one go and don’t move much, bed bugs can feast on us till their heart’s content.

Bed bugs are included in the same category as other pests like mice, moths, cockroaches etc. but they are very different from them. Just like other pests, bed bugs also like to stay in dark and cool spaces, but unlike cockroaches, mice etc., they don’t run away at the mere sight of a human being. Rather, bed bugs prefer to stay in places where they can have direct and close contact with human flesh. They feed on blood and that’s why, like to live in places where we sit or lie down.

Even though, unlike mosquitoes, their bites don’t cause any major health problems, but they do leave itchy bite marks. In today’s hectic lives, it is extremely important for us to take a nice and comfortable sleep in the night to ensure that we are fully charged during the day. But bed bugs disrupt our sleep and make us feel sleepy and tired the whole.

Therefore, it is very important to get rid of these pesky pests. There are many remedies through which you can try to get rid of them, but the most effective one is definitely, the bed bugs proof mattress cover. You can use these covers on your bed mattresses and stop bed bugs from reaching you. These covers lock the bed bugs inside them and keep them away from you.

Besides homes, the bed bugs proof mattress covers are also ideal for people who travel a lot. These days, even big hotels in metropolitan cities like New York City are also struggling with bed bugs problem. Many hotels even had to take drastic steps like evacuating the entire hotel and getting it treated with pest control. But this problem is too huge to go away this easily.

So, it will be a smart choice to take your own bed bug proof mattress covers with you to the hotel. This way, you can also prevent taking the bed bugs home with you. Apparently, it is a huge reason behind increasing bed bugs infestations. People stay in bed bugs hotels and then carry them to their homes, offices and shops, unknowingly. Even though these pests don’t stick to our hair or skin like ticks and flees, they can stick to our clothes and enter our luggage which inadvertently transports them to our homes and in our lives.

Thus, using bed bugs proof mattress in hotels and homes is very important. But many times, people complain that these mattress covers don’t work properly and don’t eliminate the bed bugs from their beds. Well, this is possible only in the following circumstances:

Bed bugs live in the soft and warm areas, so make sure that all such areas are totally clean and dry. Keep your home clean and vacuum all the upholstery as often as you can. But if you still can’t get rid of this problem, then the best option is to call a professional exterminator. Ultimately, you will have to decide whether you want to live with this problem or do something about it.
