The best way to prevent bed bugs is to practice good hygiene. Wash your hands regularly and avoid sharing personal items such as clothing, linens, or furniture. Vacuum and steam clean carpets and upholstered furniture on a regular basis. Seal off any cracks or crevices where bed bugs may enter. If you suspect an infestation, contact a professional exterminator immediately.
