I’m buying a bed bug protector for my mattress and need to know if the zip up covers that protect from dust mites also protect from bed bugs or if those are slightly different?

Mites and bedbugs aren’t the same thing, but plastic mattress protectors would protect from both of these.

Not the same thing but both are easily avoided. Keep the house clean and the matress covered and they will not produce.
