Is it OK to put hot water on the bed, taking it out in the sun, to get rid of bed bugs? Though, drying it up may be an issue. But, I tried sprays, those are not giving satisfactory result.

Thanks for suggestions....

Step1: Instead of putting hot water in the bed, put the bed inside the hotwater.

Step 2: After one hour, remove the bed and now put some hot water over the bed.

Step 3: Go to Carefour and get a new bed.

Step 4: Change your villa and go to a new villa.

Step 5: Put this new bed in the new villa.

Step 6: During this process, if you have any difficulties, feel free to message me.

Sprinkle some boric acid powder on your bed.

I think that bed bugs are all over your house. Keep your sorroundings tidy all the time. Try to clean closet by emptying it and put your clothes in your washing machine and make a mixed chemical and detergent. See to it that the solution that can kill insects. Also buy a new bed, mattress & bed sheets. If these won't work, transfer to a new building and see to it that you will not carry bed bugs along with you.

Bothered by bed bugs? Buy Pifpaf(Black and Red) it is effective and do not forget to spray on the corners and below your bed... Also buy a cover for your matress with zipper on it or if it will be possible change your mattress..

set your bed under the sun for hours, same goes with the matresses pillows and blankets used, pillows and blankets may have bed bugs egg so you have to treat them as well. no need for a hot water. sun ultraviolet rays will do.

goodluck.

Buying a new set is not a solution unless you kill all bedbugs. There should not be a single one at you home. Once you kill all then no need to buy new set also as well. So what you can do is to keep all the things of your bed room (Where bedbugs available) in the hot sun as long as you can. It's the best medicine for bedbugs. But when you keep all the things (Your bed, Sofa, cloths, Suitcase etc.) in the sun just check your room every single inch to make sure that there is no bedbugs and then bring all your things back room from the sun. Arrange everything properly......go to your bed & now you are in safe mode.

Put your mattress out in the sun for some hours as the heat from sun tends to kill the bed bugs. Also I would advice you to call pest control and get your whole house sprayed with pesticide to kill the bugs. Hope this helps you.

I think you have to throw them and get a new set. Drying under sun may give you temporary relief, they will come back with more numbers, good luck!

no need. just take you bed outside and place it directly under the sun for as long as possible. that would do the trick.
