How To Get Rid Of Bed Bugs In South Africa
TIPS TO SOLVE YOUR BED BUG PROBLEM TODAY
Clean and vacuum the area thoroughly. Vacuuming the beds, mattresses, and furniture that are infested, as well as every crack and crevice in the surrounding area, will help get rid of bed bugs and their eggs. This will give you the best chance to rid the room of these pesky pests.
Wash all the linen, sheets, pillowcases, loose cushion covers and blankets in the hottest possible water or wash cycle. Then tumble dry or hang out in the hot sunshine to dry. This will usually kill any bed bugs that are hiding in the linen.
A bed bug infestation is not considered dirty and bed bugs will often find their way into the cleanest home or establishment. The best thing to do is to pay attention to the telltale signs. When you wake up with any bite marks on your body do not just assume it is mosquitoes or fleas. Do a thorough bed bug check.

Can salt kill bed bugs?
Unfortunately, regular table salt will not kill bed bugs. Salt can be effective at killing creatures such as slugs by causing them to dry out. However, bed bugs are built differently. Their bodies are supported by a hard shell or exoskeleton made of chitin, the same material crab shells are made of.
