Sarah says
Hi I have underbed storage bed with a pull up frame. Do I just put the powder on the floor as the frame has no legs, just planks along all sides? Also, how much do I need to do one room with a queen size bed? Thanks
Tony Abrahams says
Hi Sarah. If you dont have bed legs then you can dust the powder at the base of the bed. That will kill bed bugs in the room that try to get onto your bed. But it does take 7 days to kill them so you will still be bitten for a few weeks. I bottle is enough for a queen bed. Dont use the powder on your sleeping mattress because its a silica dust. You need a mattress cover. Regards BBB

Kristina says
What is the difference between the mattress cover for dust mites and the one for bed bugs? Do you need both if have allergies?
Tony Abrahams says
Hi Kristina,
Dust mite covers work for both dust mites and bed bugs because they are tightly woven to block tiny particles and pests. However, bed bug covers are specifically designed to trap and prevent bed bugs, so they don’t block allergens. If you have allergies, a dust mite cover is the better choice.
Regards,
BBB
Donald Z says
Hi how do I clean up the diatomaceous earth afterwards? I have carpet and have read that DE can damage vacuum cleaners.
Tony Abrahams says
Hi Donald. I have never heard that DE can damage vacuum cleaners. You only need a very light dusting of powder so that won’t affect a vacuum. Regards Tony
Su says
Can you put the bed bug killer powder inside the full mattress encasement? And if so, how long do I need to leave the fully encased mattress cover on for when it needs to be washed?
Bed Bug Barrier says
Hi Su. No you shouldn’t put powder inside the mattress cover. Keep the cover on for at least a year before removing it.
Laura says
How often should you wash the dust mite mattress encasement and the quilt and pillow dust mite covers?
Do you need to put a material mattress protector on top of mattress encasement or is it better to just use the mattress encasement?
Bed Bug Barrier says
Hi Laura. You should wash the covers every two weeks to stop the dust mite life cycle. You can use a mattress protector on top of the encasement but it’s not necessary. Regards Tony

Natasha says
Hi, just wondering is your bed bug killer safe enough to be used on a baby’s cot?
Bed Bug Barrier says
Hi Natasha.
The Bed Bug Killer powder is safe to use on cots but it’s important to only place the dust in cracks and crevices where the bed bugs live.
