So we left everything is storage and when we got everything out they were all dead.

We had them a few years back. Bought a brand new $ 3500.00 living room set and had to store it forever. I have a 3500 sq. ft. house that I could not even enjoy for almost a year because of those bugs. Still to this day I don’t know how we got them.

The bugs aren’t just in the “bed”, they are all over your house. So the vinyl cover is not doing much good.
