What is the best defense against bed bugs?
Protect the thing you love! We’re bonkers about beds, so we believe everybody needs a mattress protector.
It’s not just us. Many mattress manufacturers recommend using a mattress protector – and a mattress is a big investment, so it makes sense. Although pillows don’t cost quite so much, they’re worth protecting too: a good protector will give you extra wear from your well-loved pillow! You’ll find lots of different protectors at Soak&Sleep. You might want an anti-allergy protector or our ‘call-out-the-bug-squadron’ bed-encasement protector. It all depends on how clean and secure you want to be!
How do anti-bed bug protectors work?
Anti bed bug protectors use a fully enclosed design that surrounds the entire mattress and secures with a zip closure. This creates a protective barrier that helps prevent bed bugs from accessing or escaping the mattress while also helping shield against dust mites and other allergens.
