Clearing Bed Bugs from Your Mattress: Chemical-Free Techniques

Bed bugs hiding in your Montreal mattress? Ditch the chemicals and use heat, suction, and traps to kick ‘em out. In 2025, Montreal’s infestation boom (40x since 2005) makes eco-cleaning a must for your North Shore or South Shore sleep zone. Here’s how to clear it without toxins.

Proven Techniques

  • Steam Power: 100°C+ steam on seams, tufts, and folds—kills instantly.
  • Vacuum Attack: Crevice tool on edges, seams—sucks 90% adults/eggs. Empty bag outside.
  • Encasement Lock: Seal mattress/box spring in covers—traps and starves ‘em.
  • Diatomaceous Dust: Thin layer in cracks—dehydrates over weeks.

Step-by-Step Plan

  1. Strip It: Remove all bedding, check for signs.
  2. Steam It: Hit every seam—slow, steady passes.
  3. Vacuum It: Deep clean edges, base.
  4. Seal It: Encase mattress, add interceptors to monitor.
  5. Skip Tossing: Don’t ditch—spreads to neighbors.
