On the other hand, Young bed bugs can be as small as poppy seeds or as large as sesame seeds.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bed bugs feed mainly on blood during the night, praying on sleeping birds and mammals.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unfortunately, those wingless insects are difficult to identify because they usually emerge at night when people sleep.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First and foremost, DO NOT FREAK OUT! Bed bugs aren&#8217;t dangerous, and their bites aren&#8217;t linked to infectious diseases.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Second, to leave bed bugs behind when you relocate, follow the procedures below.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tips_To_Leave_Bed_Bugs_Behind_While_Moving\"><\/span><strong>Tips To Leave Bed Bugs Behind While Moving<\/strong><strong><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Should you leave your home if you have bed bugs? If you uncover a bed bug infestation in your home, one of the first thoughts that may come to mind is to relocate to get rid of those annoying insects. Of course, if you&#8217;re a renter, this scenario is very pertinent.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another instance is dealing with a bed bug infestation in your house while preparing to relocate. It would be best to do all possible things to keep bed bugs from following you to your new home. The problem is that unless you take the proper safeguards, those dreadful viruses will infect you.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_1-_Vacuum_Your_Furniture_First\"><\/span><b>Step 1- Vacuum Your Furniture First<\/b><b><\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first step in preventing bed bugs when relocating is to vacuum everything \u2013 floors, furniture, and the bed and its surroundings. The mattress, predictably, requires extra attention, so scour the mattress seams with a firm brush to eliminate bed bugs and their eggs. Then suck them up and place them in the vacuum bag.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When finished, place the vacuum bag in a plastic garbage bag, seal it tightly, and dispose of it outside as soon as possible because it will contain live bed bugs.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_2_Remove_Your_Mattress\"><\/span><b>Step 2: Remove Your Mattress<\/b><b><\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Taking your old, diseased mattress with you when you move is a proven way to bring bed bugs. Do not attempt it. Mattresses aren&#8217;t cheap, but you don&#8217;t want to risk getting those pesky critters with you to your new house.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can use various methods to eliminate bed bugs in your mattress, including heat, pesticides, and mattress encasement, but the only way to be sure you&#8217;ve killed all of them is to throw the mattress away.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It would be best if you still were cautious about how you dispose of your mattress. Put it in a plastic mattress bag, close it tightly so no bugs can get out, and write BED BUGS on the top to warn anyone who might be tempted to bring that mattress into their homes. Ensure your mattress is adequately disposed of by following the garbage disposal procedures in your municipality or city.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_3_Clean_And_Disinfect_Contaminated_Furnishings\"><\/span><b>Step 3: Clean And Disinfect Contaminated Furnishings<\/b><b><\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a general rule, you should bring as few furniture items as feasible. Bed bugs are challenging to detect, and even if a few insects make it to the new location, you&#8217;ll face the same infestation problem.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When moving out of a bedbug-infested home, it&#8217;s best not to take furniture with you because those disgusting critters are brilliant at concealing and hitching a ride. However, if you have specific units you want to move to your new home, you must ensure they are clear of bed bugs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It would be best to sanitize all of the furniture you&#8217;re transferring. When transporting items such as a desk, nightstand, or bookcase, they must be emptied to be adequately cleaned.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remove and pack the contents of the furniture pieces you&#8217;re relocating \u2014 everything should be packed in plastic storage boxes with click-in lids. In this manner, no bug will be able to escape the temporary prison until you find a solution.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally, get the furniture you&#8217;re relocating treated by a registered pest control technician.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_4_Launder_All_Infected_Clothing_And_Bedding\"><\/span><b>Step 4: Launder All Infected Clothing And Bedding<\/b><b><\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you know or think that some of your items have been in contact with bed bugs, you should wash them since high temperatures and washing detergent have been proven to kill bed bugs and their eggs. Use the maximum heat setting on your washer and dryer when washing and drying the garments under suspicion to ensure bug removal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is advisable to do your laundry in batches. When you&#8217;re finished with a batch, lock the washed and dried clothes in sealable plastic bags or plastic storage boxes with tight lids and label them <strong>CLEAN<\/strong>. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This way, you&#8217;ll be specific.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do the same with any washable bedding (sheets, pillows, blankets, towels, etc.).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remember that drying your textiles on high temperature for at least 30 minutes is more effective than washing them to kill bed bugs.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_5_Put_Everything_You_Own_Into_Plastic_Bags\"><\/span><b>Step 5: Put Everything You Own Into Plastic Bags<\/b><b><\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To ensure you don&#8217;t bring bed bugs when you move, place all objects that can&#8217;t be washed in clear plastic bags and close them tightly so that nothing may escape. Books, electronics, tiny appliances, and other goods that cannot be disinfected inside a washer and dryer are such items.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once bed bugs have been effectively captured inside those bags, contact a pest control professional for advice on treating the objects to rid them of pesky insects.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><strong><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In conclusion, leaving bed bugs behind when you move requires diligence, meticulous planning, and the assistance of professionals.
