Bedbugs are tiny, blood-sucking pests that can invade your home and cause itchy bites, allergic reactions, and sleepless nights. They are hard to spot and even harder to get rid of, but with the right method, you can eliminate them naturally and permanently! 
How Do Bedbugs Live?
Where They Hide: Mattresses, furniture, cracks, carpets, and even electrical outlets. What They Feed On: Human blood at night. Lifespan: 4-6 months, but they can survive over a year without food! Reproduction: A single female lays 200–500 eggs in her lifetime!
Warning Signs of Bedbugs: Red, itchy bites (often in a line or cluster). Small blood stains on sheets. Musty odor in infested areas. Tiny black spots (bedbug feces) on your mattress or furniture.
The Simple, Natural Method to Eradicate Bedbugs
DIY Bedbug Killer Spray
This homemade spray will kill bedbugs on contact and repel them naturally!
Ingredients:
-
2 cups water
-
1 cup white vinegar
(kills bedbugs & destroys eggs) -
10 drops tea tree oil
(natural insecticide) -
10 drops lavender oil
(repels bedbugs) -
1 tsp baking soda
(dehydrates bedbugs)

Additional Steps to Kill Bedbugs Completely
Wash & Heat-Treat Everything!
Wash all bedding & clothes in hot water (60°C/140°F). Tumble dry on high heat for at least 30 minutes. Steam-clean your mattress & furniture (bedbugs die at 120°F/49°C).
Use Diatomaceous Earth (Natural Bedbug Killer)
Sprinkle food-grade diatomaceous earth around your bed & furniture. It dehydrates and kills bedbugs within 48 hours. Leave it for 2-3 days, then vacuum thoroughly.
Deep Clean & Seal Hiding Spots
Vacuum daily (mattresses, carpets, baseboards, furniture). Seal cracks and crevices in walls and furniture. Use bedbug-proof mattress covers to trap any survivors.
Important Precautions
Don’t use insecticides without proper knowledge—many chemicals don’t kill bedbug eggs. Avoid clutter, as bedbugs love hiding in piles of clothes and furniture. Check secondhand furniture carefully before bringing it into your home.
