Well the best way is to find out if there are any professionals that do this. Bedbugs are really discusting pests and you need professional help to gt rid of them. There is also a Bed Bug Registry that might help you find out more on this matter. Just click here [link url=http://feelgoodtime.net/bedbug-registry/]Bed Bug Registry[/link] , that was also my source to find out more on this.

Finding Bed Bugs-Bed bugs are good at hiding. In fact, you really have to search and know what you are looking for before you may find a bed bug. In many instances, evidence of a bed bug is discovered rather than the actual bug itself. Rusty spots on sheets and mattresses caused by a crushed bug or a bug's fecal matter (which looks like tiny black specks or very small dots of blood) may be the first indication that a bed bug infestation has occurred, along with eggshells and shed skin. Most bed bugs can be found in the crevices and cracks of mattresses, chairs, and sofas. They are often found between the headboard and a wall as well. Because bed bugs prefer wood and fabric over plastic and metal, bed bugs mostly dwell in the more lived-in areas of a home or building, such as a bedroom or hotel room. If you aren't sure whether you have bed bugs, many bed bug exterminators can give your home a professional inspection. While some pest control companies will do this for free, other exterminators charge up to $200. There are even specialized bed bug exterminator companies that use trained dogs to sniff out bed bugs - however, this service is significantly more expensive than a standard inspection. Still, dogs can help you find out if you have a bed bug infestation. Source: [link url=http://howto-getridofbedbugs

Bed bugs are a type of parasite that feeds on blood. They are reddish-brown and are large enough to be seen with the naked eye. They are an average of a 1/4 inch long and have flat, oval bodies. Getting rid of bed bugs is a long, difficult process. Each step must be completed or the bed bugs will not be completely eradicated.

1. Remove all personal items. Thoroughly vacuum and clean them. Place the items in a plastic bag with Nuvan strips, a type of insecticide that leaves no residue. Follow the duration instructions on the label of the strips.

2. Take apart the bed and all other furniture. Drawers must be pulled out and cleaned. Place the box spring of the bed on end and remove the fabric from one side so it can be visually inspected and treated for bed bugs. Clean the entire room with warm soapy water and a brush. Seal all holes and cracks in the room with caulk.

3. Depending on the type of vacuum cleaner used, it will need to be thoroughly soaked and cleaned as well. If it is a bag vacuum, seal and dispose of the bag.

4. Spray or dust the mattress and box spring with an approved insecticide such as Eco PCO D-X or EcoExempt D Dust. The insecticide must be labeled for use on mattresses. Alternatively, you can buy approved mattress covers that will seal the bed bugs inside until they die up to one year later.

5. All the other furniture must be treated with insecticide also. It is also a good idea to treat the baseboards.
