An Effective Mattress-Encasement Strategy Within An Integrated Bed Bug Treatment Plan
Mattress Safe® Inc. introduces an innovative "Duo" Mattress Protector Solution for pest control professionals and consumers dealing with bed bug infestation. The newly introduced "Bug Solution Duo" combines the strength and protection of the "Superior". Total Mattress Encasement with a "Simplistic" Overlay that can be easily removed for washing and maintenance.

The "Bug Solution Duo" includes the "Superior" Total Mattress Encasement plus a removable "Simplistic" Overlay. The "Superior" Total Mattress Encasement provides Bed Bug Certification, stretches to fit up to 18" deep mattresses, is waterproof and fire retardant, and protects against dust mites. The "Simplistic" Overlay addition provides easy removal for washing, protects "Superior" Mattress Encasement from stains, allows customer the option to flip their mattress, and provides an extra layer of comfort during the 12-18 month quarantine period.

President Will Poston found that consumers who are advised to leave their infested mattress encased for a "quarantine period" of 12 - 18 months are uncomfortable with a stand-alone encasement that cannot be removed for washing and does not allow for routine maintenance. "The added benefits of our Bug Solution Duo include easy maintenance and cleanliness control, while completely protecting the consumer from any bed bugs which may remain encased during the quarantine period," Mr. Poston remarked.

In 2007, Mattress Safe® Inc. achieved accreditation as a Pest Control Management Product through independent bed bug testing conducted by a certified entomologist.  The conclusions of these tests were that bed bugs cannot penetrate through the fabric or design of the encasement, thus proving Mattress Safe® Inc.’s ability to prevent the infestation of bed bugs in mattresses and box springs.
