What is a pesticide? How do they work? What are the basics that I should know about pesticides?
Consumer beware. There are some shady practices in the pest control industry. Know what scams to look for before you go hiring anybody to do your pest control.
Our first recommendation is to simply keep the mattress and have a pest control company do an inspection first and foremost. In most instances, a full bed bug treatment that includes treating the mattress itself is enough to eradicate a bed bug population if everything is done right. However, some people want to get rid of their mattress first and foremost before getting treatment or are (understandably) too creeped out to hold onto a once bug infested bed. Fortunately, Los Angeles and the surrounding LA County offer many options for mattress disposal.
