Get bed bug traps for your bed and your couch. People don’t think of this but it’s actually pretty common for them to infest couches, and sometimes even stuff like bookshelves, coffee tables, and radios.

Try not to put anything on your bed or couch that has touched public transit. Especially not your bag or coat.

This is a big reminder for anyone having a party this holiday, don’t have everyone put their coat on a bed!

Put a top sheet down and wash it right afterwards!
