Tips to avoid bed bugs in Laundromats:
- Make certain that you keep your clothes away from anyone else’s clothes or other clutter to ensure that bed bugs don’t hitch a ride home with your freshly laundered clothing
- Also keep your clothes in sealed, bed bug proof laundry bags as long as possible – unzip laundry bag immediately before washing and zip it up in a clean one after a washing.
- Make sure to use two bed bug laundry bags – one before and one after washing.
- If you must put your clothes down on a surface, it is best to choose a clean and elevated surface that is NOT made of wood, paper or plaster, as these surfaces are easiest for bed bugs to climb up and infest your clothing.
- Before you put your clothes into the machines do a quick check for bed bugs, bed bug eggs etc. Looking at the lint filter may also help.
- Make sure there are no left behind items from the last person to have used the machine.
- Also make sure the person before you didn’t leave any clothes in the machines, especially dirty clothes.
- Don’t forget to empty the lint tray from the dryer before and after and dispose of contents outside the Laundromat.
- Make sure to use the hottest cycle they’ve got. Ideally above 120 degrees Fahrenheit. This should kill any bed bugs and their eggs.
- Can’t put your clothes at such high temperatures? Before you leave home, leave your clothes in the sun for a few days, or the freezer even – bed bugs can’t live in extreme temperatures anywhere.
- Before bringing your laundry bag and clothes back into your house, do a quick search of the exterior to make sure no last minute hitchhikers got onto your bag.
