Heat
Bed bugs will die when the temperature exceeds 113 degrees Fahrenheit or 45 degrees Celsius. Therefore, you can use a steam cleaner or launder clothing in hot water to kill them on fabrics. Exposing these insects for at least 60 minutes to temperatures higher than the above point, ideally over 140 degrees Fahrenheit or 60 degrees Celsius, would allow for a quick elimination. Heating the whole room is unlikely to deliver expected results because bed bugs would look for cooler spaces that are beyond the reach of the heat. [3]
