Answer 2

I don't think so, but if you would like more info on "bedbugs" this is what WEKIPEDIA has to say about it.....

"If it is necessary to live with bedbugs in the short term, it is possible to create makeshift temporary barriers around a bed. Although bedbugs cannot fly or jump, they have been observed climbing a higher surface in order to then fall to a lower one, such as climbing a wall in order to fall onto a bed. That having been said, barrier strategies nevertheless often have beneficial effects: an elevated bed, for example, can be protected by applying double-sided sticky tape (carpet tape) around each leg, or by keeping each leg on a plastic furniture block in a tray of water. Bed frames can be effectively rid of adult bedbugs and eggs by use of steam or, used with caution, by spraying rubbing alcohol on any visible bugs (although this is not a permanent treatment). Small steam cleaners are available and are very effective for this local treatment. A suspect mattress can be protected by wrapping it in a painter's disposable plastic dropcloth, neatly sealing shut all the seams with packing tape, and putting it on a protected bed after a final visual inspection. Bedding can be sanitized by a 120 °F (49 °C) laundry dryer. Once sanitized, bedding should not be allowed to drape to the floor. An effective way to quarantine a protected bed is to store sanitized sleeping clothes in the bed during the day, and bathing before entering the bed.

Vermin and pets may complicate a barrier strategy. Bedbugs prefer human hosts, but will resort to other warm-blooded hosts if humans are not available, and some species can live up to eighteen months without feeding at all. A co-infestation of mice can provide an auxiliary food source to keep bedbugs established for longer. Likewise, a house cat or human guest might easily defeat a barrier by sitting on a protected bed. Such considerations should be part of any barrier strategy."

At most deptment stores and online you can get a mattress protector that slips over the mattress... Or you can get painter's plastic or extra large (black) contractor bags, cover the mattress and seal with packing tape... NOW is a good time to put the mattress out in the sun, to fry up the little bugs.. Then cover the mattress w/ plastic/vinyl protector and good night,sleep tight... and well you know the rest....good luck

Answer 4

If you think this, then I say get rid of the matress and box spring or do like the other guy said and wrap them in something air tight for avery long time. I really don't know that much about bed bugs. but any living thing cannot survive with out air.
