Question by Alvaro R:
Should i just throw away my mattress away since i discovered a few bed bugs?

So far my room is infested with bed bugs and discovered that my brothers and sisters rooms doesn’t have them as of yet or been seen.

I am thinking that i should throw away all of my clothes, bed, box springs dressers, and curtains i have money to replace them all but should i just throw away the bed and wash the other fabrics with hot water?

Don’t: Get out the vacuum cleaner, take all the bedding off, toss it in the washer and put it on hot with soap of course. Then vacuum the mattress paying attention to the seams, you’ll see them, small redish-brown thingys along the seams and, the don’t like the light. Vacuum thes up, flip the mattress and do it again, wash the bed frame down, allover, if you have a carpet on the floor vacuum it real good. Wash the drapes everything. Do not spray. Your clothes that are laying around, wash it all.
