To kill bed bugs with steam, start by attaching the wide, triangular nozzle to your steam cleaner, which will cover the most surface area. Fill your tank with plain tap water and switch on your steamer. Start by steaming the highest point in the room and work your way down to the lowest point to make sure you get each and every bed bug. Steam all hard and upholstered surfaces, like mattresses, box springs, furniture, and baseboards. When you glide the nozzle across each surface, move slowly, so each section gets enough steam to kill the bed bugs and their eggs. Wait a few hours, then repeat the process 2 to 3 times to make sure you get all of the bed bugs. For more tips, including how to air out a room after steaming, read on!
