How to protect yourself from bedbugs ?

At BREYNER®, we believe that the best solution is prevention! Indeed, isn’t it better to prevent than to cure? This adage is also true when we talk about this pest, which makes many French people live a real nightmare: the bed bug. According to a study by Inserm’s Sentinelle network (1), nearly 72,000 consultations with a general practitioner in metropolitan France had a reason related to bed bugs (period from April 2019 to March 2020). The question then arises: are there ways to protect yourself from bed bugs ?

Some tips to prevent the appearance of bed bugs :

  1. Do not store objects under your bed

By storing objects under your bed you offer bed bugs a nice hiding place near your mattress! You may also store an already infested object!

  • Make room for

Avoid leaving your clothes lying on the floor. Imagine if a bug passes by and clings to your jacket or sweater… this is the risk of contaminating your wardrobe see the whole room!

  • Become a fairy of the house

After picking up your clothes from the floor, remember to vacuum. This habit will help you get rid of possible wandering bugs.

  • When traveling, remember to check your accommodation

Before unpacking your suitcases, check your accommodation (hotel room, hostel …). Take a moment to inspect curtains, carpets, walls, and places near the bed. Most importantly, check if the bedding does not show signs of infestation. In case you notice the signs of an infestation, ask to change rooms. Also avoid placing your clothes on the bed.

  • Once back, wash your clothes and check your luggage

It would be a shame to bring back from your holiday stowaways… Wash your clothes at more than 55° (2) upon your return and clean your luggage, backpacks or handbags.
