How hot does it have to be in your house to kill bed bugs?

I'm currently having my apartment being treated for these disgusting little vampires, and it is a drawn out process. I have to effectively be the bait while my bed frame is coated with a chemical that causes them to die slowly.

This is basically because spraying extensively and using fogger / smoke bomb pesticides causes them to scatter. (I know this because that is exactly what I have done, and it has made the problem much much worse than if they were ONLY living on my bed, or in my couch).

To be 100% certain of destroying any bugs, nymphs AND EGGS, you need to wash your stuff at 60 celsius, and then tumbledry it on high heat for 90 minutes.

Larger items such as mattresses are a bit more complicated but can be saved with proper decontamination, and I would urge you to at least contact a reputable professional to talk about the bugs you have because, take it from me... after a year of trying to win on my own against these things, I call tell you I am a nervous wreck and near enough broke down. I wish I had gone to an expert then rather than read up on the internet and try and figure it out for myself... I've managed to make it worse, and I've spent 6 months unable to sleep at home for my trouble.

Good luck, let's murder some bugs!
