Adult bed bugs look like lentils: reddish-brown, flattened, oval and wingless. Mature bedbugs are about 5 to 6½ mm long, which means that they can be seen by the naked eye.
Here are some ways to eliminate bed bugs from your home:
● Clean your house: Avoid having clutter in your home
● Put all clothing, bedding, carpets and fabrics in a hot dryer
● Vacuum the whole area, including inside bags and luggage
● Cover your mattress and box spring with a mattress encasement registered for bed bug control, such as BugLock manufactured by Protect-A-Bed
● Steam clean your walls and crannies
● Remove infested furniture from your house
● Pesticide
