Bed Bugs Virginia

"Bed Bugs Virginia prevention, bed bug extermination, and information on bedbugs in Virginia."  

The News Leader which covers the central shenandoah valley of Virginia had a story on the spread of bed bugs. While the story doesn't point to a problem in Virginia, it does encourage Virginia residents to inspect hotel rooms for bed bugs.

Steps for Eliminating Bed Bugs From Your Home, Office or Apartment

Consider buying a bed bug removal kit such as the one offered by All Stop. The kits provide all of the products mentioned below and are an economical way to approach the problem. Getting rid of bed bugs is hard work, and having the right products available will help.

Step 1: Clean
Remove and wash in hot water any items such as clothing. Once clean, place in a sealed plastic bag. Vacuum any bed bugs that you can spot and then dispose of the vacuum bag in a sealed plastic bag.

Step 2: Spray
Use a safe bed bug spray such as Benzarid. Be sure to spray in cracks and along seams in mattresses. After mattress dries, buy a zippered casing to trap any remaining bugs (available from the same company).

Step 3: Use Bed Bug Dust
Spread bed bug dust around the room. If any bugs are left or if any eggs haven't hatched, the dust will attach to the bed bugs shell and kill them. The Georgia Division of Public Health recommends the use of a steamer on a mattress (and in cracks) to kill the eggs.

See our guide for detailed instructions on eliminating bed bugs.
