Generously spray all cracks in your wood funiture soak it good only works if you can get direct contact with them also dust your carpets with diatomaceous earth and fill a rose and plant duster with the powder and pump away everwhere not harmfull to pets or humans but dries up the little buggers..this also can be found at ace hardware style stores or online. Leave it in your carpet for a good week! Wash all your clothes that are in dressers this is a good time to spray those cracks and seems where the wood comes together. Last but not least use this bug bomb called hot shot and you can buy the spray of the same name. Bug bomb again 12 days later. That will be when all the left over eggs have hatched and are in stage one looking for their first blood meal. Remove pets and humans when bug bombing, read can for time duration. This whole series of applications is the only way we got rid of ours...

∙ 13y agoAfter killing the live bugs with alcohol, apply generous amounts of food grade Diatomaceous Earth (freshwater only). This is often called 'Codex" grade.This is deadly for bed bugs and will kill the next generation that will be hatching. It is also safe for you and pets as well.
The only thing that will kill the eggs is heat. At least 30 minutes in the dryer above 120 degrees Fahrenheit for your clothing and effected items like sheets etc.
For upholstery, carpets, and mattresses, steam clean above 120 degrees Fahrenheit. Do it slowly for maximum effect. Or have it professionally done. (It's really not Rocket Science), just take your time.
Clean all clutter in area, certain things can be put under heat lamps to be really thorough. After all is cleaned, lay down another thin coat of DE, making sure to remove wall-plates around light-switches, baseboards, under carpet borders, crevices and cracks, dust it all well.
It is ok to leave the DE dust down, so it works into carpets and floor cracks etc. In two weeks, repeat process. They are very tough to get rid of, so be patient!
