how long do bed bugs survive in heat
A creature's thermal death point is the temperature at which it cannot survive. Bedbugs die at 113 degrees Fahrenheit, but eggs can survive slightly higher temperatures. The eggs also survive heat for longer than bedbugs at other stages of development. According to Dr. Dini M. Miller of the Department of Entomology at Virginia Tech, 113-degree temperatures kill bedbugs within 90 minutes, but the bugs die at 118 degrees in only 20 minutes.
