Steps to Contain an infestation
Vacuum:
A quick and easy way to trap bedbugs is with your vacuum. Run the vacuum over any possible hiding places.
This includes your bed, headboard, dresser, carpets, curtains, electronics, like TVs, furniture, etc.
Seal up the vacuumed contents into a plastic bag and throw it away. Then thoroughly clean out the vacuum.
Washing:
Seal up all your linens and affected clothes in plastic bags until you can wash them. Then put them on the highest possible temperature setting in a washer and dryer. If an item cannot be washed, put it in the dryer for 30 minutes at the highest heat setting. Also wash your Curtains, Carpets, Blinds and clothing.
Next, get rid of bedbug hiding places:
Pick up books, magazines, clothes, and anything else that’s lying on your floor and under your bed.
Throw out whatever you can.
Do not move items from an infested room to a clean one — you could spread the bugs.
Seal up any open areas:
Glue down loose wallpaper.
Caulk cracks in furniture and around baseboards.
Tape up open electrical outlets.
