Use sleep mode and power management features on your computer to save money on your energy bill. Many people work from home at least one day per week. Working from home saves energy and time by cutting out the commute, but it may increase your home energy bills unless you use energy-saving office equipment.
Bed bugs die when their body temperatures reaches 45Â°C (113Â°F). To kill bed bugs with heat, the room or container must be even hotter to ensure sustained heat reaches the bugs no matter where they are hiding. Don't pass your bed bugs on to others.
Freeze furniture, instead. If your bed bug problem occurs in the middle of winter, you can use freezing temperatures to kill bed bugs, as well. Wrap each infested item in plastic bag material. Sit it in a shaded area on the coldest winter day possible. Note that this method will take longer than sitting your furnishing out in the sun.
