Can't they set up an offsite hotbox to get rid of the bedbugs before it gets onsite? Surely someone could set up a mobile truck that can come, park, and heat up 15 mattresses for the few hours it takes to kill or drive off the bedbugs, no?
- hombre_fatal 7y agoOne simple option is to immediately insert the mattress into a bed bug cover upon pickup.
- three_seagrass 7y agoBug covers for mattresses need to be of the right type and installed properly. Doing it upon pick up only increases the risk of damaging the cover and ruining any utility it has. They're not designed for durability and it takes only a pinhole puncture to ruin the entire cover.
- hombre_fatal 7y agoIf perfection is the concern, don't forget that bed bugs can hitch a ride on anything from an infected house, from books to nightstands.
- minikites 7y agoCan you ensure that this process is followed fully and correctly all of the time?
- ska 7y agoIs setting this up worthwhile for a general charity? Would it be better for them than say, working out an overstock donation?
- magic_beans 7y agoDo you really thing a charity can afford that? And mattress companies have exactly zero incentive to fund this.
