First, you have to know your enemy.  So I hope that the information contained in Bed Bug Denver will give you ideas about what you can do to keep bed bugs from eating you alive.

Just remember, the key to getting rid of these bugs is not a once and done situation.  Once there are bedbugs in other apartments or condos in your building.  No matter what you do there is a good chance that they will probably find their way back into your home. Even after you have killed them all. 

Where Are They Coming From?

Of course, this depends upon the source of the infestation.  All too often an infestation will start with a neighbor.  Maybe they brought in a used piece of furniture that had an infestation inside. Or maybe they already have an infestation that they aren’t treating. 

There are a lot of people who get an infestation and refuse to have it treated.  Because they don’t want anyone in their home.  Or because they are allergic to the chemicals that are used in treatments.

At the first sign of bedbugs in your home, you must repeat the following steps.  Make sure that you treat and repeat till you stop seeing them.  If you don’t they will come back and re-infest your home when their eggs hatch.  Try to find out where they are coming from so you can also block that entry. 

First, you have to treat the area around your bed or any other area where you sleep.  You should carefully check your mattress and bed frame.

Bed Bugs like to hide in areas close to where you sleep so they can get to you easier at night. Check any furniture that is close to your bed.  How To Find Bed Bugs

Start With Your Mattress

If you find bugs, blood smears, or shells you need to protect your mattress.  This can be done using a bedbug mattress protector to seal in and kill the bugs.  This will keep the bugs from getting to you.  Just remember that you also have to treat as much as needed.

Use A Bed Bug Mattress Protector

Just this last summer we had finally eliminated all the bugs in our apartment.  A couple of weeks later we noticed a couple of them again.  A little investigation led us to the fact that they were getting back into our home from an attached balcony and coming from next door. Some quick treating with Diatomaceous Earth and they were gone again.

But by taking the proper precautions and steps to control the bed bugs before they become a full fledged infestation, you can make your home a bedbug free zone.  The longer you wait the worse the problem is going to become.   Bed Bug Denver will give you ideas on where to start,  I also have a website with all sorts of free information.
