Your bed bug treatment

Treatment has three parts: vacuuming, dusting and a chemical treatment.

1. Vacuuming comes first, which is what the product label recommends before surfaces are treated.
2. A dust goes into the voids and cracks where bed bugs harbor.
3. The chemical treatment goes where bed bugs hide: mattress seams, folds, tufts and edges, bed frames, box springs and headboards, and around baseboards, floorboards, millwork, wall hangings and furniture.
4. It's applied as a pinstream, a coarse spray or a low-pressure spray, into cracks and crevices and along carpet edges.
5. Mattress and box spring surfaces are treated directly. Porous surfaces like mattresses and carpet edges are treated until they're thoroughly damp, but not wet.
6. Nothing that was treated is used again until the spray has dried.

How to prepare: Infested bed linens aren't treated. Strip them, seal them tightly in a plastic bag, then launder and dry them at high temperatures before they're used again, and re-make the bed with clean linens. Your preparation sheet has the rest.
