Question by sandra m:
We got rid of bedbugs by spraying the area with spray and wash, then spreading borax around.?

We vacuumed it up around an hour later then spread borax around and left it on the bed and floor. On the bed we sprinkled it all over then put a sheet over it. This was two years ago. They were everywhere. Now we don’t have any. Cost about $ 10.?.?
I meant to say we sprayed them with shout. It kills the bedbugs.

Answer by smgray99
I am not sure what the spray and wash did but the vacuuming helps (toss the bag out immediately) and borax is very good for all kinds of crawly pests. Usually recommended as a non-toxic way to get rid of ants.

Doubtful. Sounds like they weren’t bed bugs, but simply bugs in your bed.
