The Truth about Mattress Covers for bed bugs.
Never Buy a Bed Bug Mattress Cover. They don't help.
Fight the urge on this one. There are many who when they discover bed bugs run off and buy a "mattress cover". This is not only a waste of money it also doesn't do what they are marketed to accomplish. Most of the marketing for mattress covers implies that they will prevent bed bugs. This is a farce. Though some mattress covers may be able to contain bugs larger than a certain size within the cover once sealed they cannot and will not prevent an infestation nor that the infestation will happen at the bed or the mattress. These things can be pretty pricey as well ranging from $5.00-80.00+. Not a good investment since the problem is not affected and often causes the bug to multiply more efficiently. Please find professionals who can team with you to eliminate these pest. The above picture was taken just prior to Heat Treatment. The wet stain was because the family sprayed the mattress because they found bugs and bought a mattress cover to solve the problem. Bugs were in other places than the bed and reinvested the bed and the mattress cover. As we removed the cover we found a live bug under the cover. Yummy.
