How to Celebrate National Bed Bug Prevention Day
Bug Hunt Extravaganza
Grab a magnifying glass and play detective in your own home. Search high and low, scrutinize those mattress seams, and peek behind the headboards.
Who knows what you might discover? Just remember, it’s all in good fun—no need for a magnifying glass-induced headache!
Laundry Party
Why not throw a laundry party? Gather all your linens, curtains, and even clothes for a hot wash. Crank up some tunes and make it a blast. Clean threads, bed bug dreads!
Seal and Secure
It’s time for a caulking party! Seal those cracks and crevices around windows and doors. It’s like putting up a “No Entry” sign for uninvited six-legged gatecrashers.
Vacuum Rally
Host a vacuuming relay race. Equip everyone with a vacuum and set them loose on a timed course through the house. The fastest clean gets bragging rights—and maybe even a little prize!
Educational Movie Night
Wind down with a documentary on these pesky invaders. Pop some corn and learn what makes these critters tick (or bite). Knowledge is power and also a great way to keep the bed bugs at bay!
