How to get rid of bed bugs or fleas from a couch or sofa.

Ok it can be done without spraying it or even after it was sprayed but it takes 3 weeks and a little work.

REMEMBER PLEASE WEAR GLOVES AND A MASK.

1...Make an envelope out of the thick plastic and slide your sofa into it, place a Hot Shot No Pest Strip on the sofa then duct tape it closed. BUT MAKE SURE IT IS AIR TIGHT AND KEEP PETS AND CHILDREN AWAY FROM IT SO THEY CANT RIP IT.
2...Leave it for 3 weeks
3...Remove plastic and let the sofa air out for 4 hours and KEEP CHILDREN AND PETS OFF OR NEAR IT FOR THAT 4 HOURS.

(If that sofa is in the only room that has bed bugs or fleas you dont need to cover it with plastic it can be treating by following the "How to get rid of bed bugs if you only have them in one room" instructions.)
