How do you get rid of bedbugs on a low budget?

Expose your mattresses, clothing, curtains, plush toys and furniture to direct sunlight outside, particularly afternoon sunlight when the sun is at its brightest. This will kill most if not all of adult bed bugs, nymphs, larvae and nests.

Vacuuming in every corner of the house including in the nooks and crannies of your furniture and under EVERYTHING will eliminate nests and live bed bugs.

Using Duct Tape, inside out on the bottom of furniture legs, bed posts, etc will trap the bugs before they can climb to the mattresses.

Usie extremely hot temperatures when washing and drying clothing and toys in the washing machine and dryer.

For toys that aren't machine washable, vacuum them as best as possible, and enclose them in a plastic bag, removing all the air (airtight) and set in sun for a few hours.

Steam cleaning is the most popular and effective way of eliminating bed bugs. If you have a household steam cleaner, steam everything from the curtains to the floors and under every piece of furniture. The intense temperatures kills bed bugs instantly.

Cover holes in walls and wooden furniture with duct tape, to trap bugs and nests, and prevent them from feeding off of hosts.

Place Lavender satchels (potpourri) around the house and especially under mattresses, around couches and other furniture, and around baseboards of house. Eucalyptus is also known to work as well at deterring Spiders, earwigs, beetles, ants and other creepy crawlies from entering and infesting a home.
