HOSPITOLOGY PRODUCTS Box Spring Encasement - Zippered Bed Bug Dust Mite Proof Hypoallergenic - Sleep Defense System - Full/Double –54" W x 75" L

I left this feedback for all the items I purchased and listed here in prevention of BED BUGS.I live in a apartment building. 10 years ago in the city I live in I never heard any mention of bedbugs. Now I hear it everywhere. I purchased the following just as a precaution.Hospitology Sleep Defense System Waterproof/Dust Mite Proof Pillow Encasement, Standard, Set of 2Hospitology Sleep Defense System Waterproof/Bed Bug Proof Mattress Encasement,80-Inch by 60-Inch, QueenHospitology Sleep Defense System Bed Bug Proof Box Spring Encasement, 80-Inch by 60-Inch, QueenBEAP 10013 4-Pack Detector Bed Bug Coaster TrapDiatomaceous Earth Food GradePest PistolMineral OilI read online many, many, many different suggesting and opinions. These are most popular ideas, and I agree with them.My bed is brand new and I wanted some protection.Every thing listed I purchased on Amazon is good quality and no complaints. I was very nervous the Hospitality Sleep Defense items would have a plastic feel, but it is not the case. The Hospitality Sleep Defense for the pillows and bed have a nice soft and smooth feel to them. They make my bed and pillows feel smoother and softer. They are a good quality and feel like they will last a long time and not rip. They are very big for even the biggest of mattresses or box springs.First of all the Diatomaceous Earth Food Grade box i received is big. I used this for my entire apartment and still have more then half left in the box. Using Diatomaceous Earth Food Grade, and Pest Pistol (online comments are you can also use empty plastic ketchup and mustard bottles) I dusted all long the walls under the carpet (use a dollar store paintbrush to keep it nice and neat), and in some places I lifted the carpet up and sprayed a little on the carpet tacs that hold the carpet in place. You do not have to spray it heavy, only a light coating.Then I took the electrical cover panels and sprayed inside the walls, USE CAUTION, TURN OFF THE ELECTRICAL PANEL SUPPLY. You might want to consider wearing a dollar store face mask, the Diatomaceous Earth Food Grade will blow around a little, if you get carried away with it. Make sure you spray into all holes and crevasses (even in the bathroom) behind the medicine cabinet if there are gaps, in the trimming along the walls, closets, everywhere!!! Every room, every space!!!!!!!. Online reports and comments are that bed bug like hiding behind the medicine cabinet in the bathroom, behind mirrors or photos hanging on walls, dressers, dressers drawers, light shades. I even sprayed a little on my bed frame. Keep in mind, if the Diatomaceous Earth Food Grade gets wet, it is useless and you will have to reapply it. Also note, if you shampoo your rugs a couple times a year, like me, you may have to reapply Diatomaceous Earth Food Grade after your rugs dry.Diatomaceous Earth Food Grade kills all kinds of bugs, cutting into their hard shell bodies and sticks into their joints. This definitely gives me peace of mind when I sleep or laying in my bed during the day. Bed bugs usually feed in the middle of the night, but if they get hungry they will come out all times of the day.Isolate your bed from the walls and the floors. Only have the legs of your bed touching the floor. Keep blankets from touching the walls and floor. Nothing should be touching your walls or floor. ISOLATION! Computer power cords and cell phone cords should not be on your bed when you sleep. Although there are online reports of bedbugs climbing up to the ceiling and falling down/jumping onto beds, I am not that paranoid. Because it is a death sentence for them, they cannot escape or live in the mattress or lay eggs in the mattress because of the Hospitality Sleep Defense.Always make sure you wash and dry your blankets and sheets every week. Dry for at least 20-30 minutes on hot.BEAP 10013 4-Pack Detector Bed Bug Coaster Trap are very strong and very big. I was very surprised! I was nervous, I have a QUEEN size bed with wheels under each leg. But they fit with room to spare. Use the Mineral Oil in the outer trench of the Coasters. Bed Bugs cannot swim in it, they sink to the bottom and drowns them. But dummy me, my queen bed frame has 5 legs, one leg to support the middle of the bed. I used them on my sofa also. Good luck if you find yourself with bedbugs or using these as a prevention and defense.If you do not have the time or energy, you can hire an exterminator which will cost thousands and thousands of dollars. I am the type of person I do not like to use pesticides in my apartment unless I have to. I never use those insect fumigators, they spray pesticides everywhere and you will eventually absorb them into your skin, from the floors and furniture.If you already have bed bugs, I suggest vacuuming every inch of your bed, on your bed, box, and frame head board. Then do your furniture, sofa and recliners. Sofas, couches and recliners are much harder to eradicate bedbugs from, you might want to think about trashing it. Please, before you trash your furniture, damage your furniture so no one else takes it and gets a bedbug nightmare. When you are finished vacuuming, remove the bag, put in a plastic trash bag and TAPE IT SHUT and put outside away from your house in a trash can. They start spraying the Diatomaceous Earth Food Grade everywhere.Bed Bugs are smart creatures, they are very good at hiding until they are hungry. And they will search you out like a blood hound dog.Good luck!

Very good for the price. Served the purpose.

I got my first Bedbug bites around December 1st, 2023. I had a line of bites on my shoulder and arm, 2 turned into giant blisters! 7 days later I had 3 bites on my waist in a row. At first I assumed the bites were from Mosquitoes or Fleas. I didn't know anything about Bedbugs, I thought they were a myth. I'm convinced I got them from visiting my Step Dad in the hospital. They're very common in those types of settings because of all the people coming and going. I first bought the Ortho spray on Amazon that got good reviews, but it didn't work and allowed them to multiply. By mid January I had hundreds of bites on my chest, breasts, stomach, back, arms and legs. I was convinced they were in my box spring, lots of foamy layers for them to hide in. I bought the Hospitology box spring encasement and the Hospitology mattress encasement. Once I encased my box spring and mattress I haven't gotten any bites. It's been 3 months and no bites. I'm so happy that I'm rid of them. They are resilient bugs and are resistant to many pesticides. They wait until you are asleep and crawl out of their hiding place. They latch onto you and suck your blood for 3 to 10 minutes. If you suspect Bed bugs, encase your box spring immediately! Bedbugs are great at hiding in cracks and crevices, so often sprays and foggers don't reach them. Every day I wake up and thank God the Bedbugs are gone. They were my worst nightmare. Thank you Hospitology!

I thought I read someplace in the product description that there were two box spring encasements per pack, as would make sense in the case of a king sized bed. no, only one. FYI.... Seems like a nice material. Will see how installation goes after I get my ...2nd pack

At first I only thought allergy cover only existed for mattresses only. Then I discovered they do make them for boxsprings but all I could find locally was full size. I found low profile thru Amazon. It was easy quiet easy to put on. I didn't put it on the way the instructions said. It was low profile so I was able to lift it up while on bed, first the head and pulled it down half way, then picked up the foot and slid it down to let it hang over the foot board (it's a slay bed) to finish and seal. Fits really well.

When we redid our spare room I decided to buy both the box spring cover and the mattress cover like I have before for the master bedroom. This is a great product. Not really sure about the waterproof claim because thank goodness I have never had to find out. The material is really nice and washes well.

We purchased a variety of mattress and box spring encasements from different sources (because of varying sizes) & Sleep Defense System was my personal favorite. This was primary due to how the zipper set up was designed for ease of installation. Delivery was immediate & quality is top notch.

This product was well made and it does take two people to put on but other than that it was good

Me gusto encajo perfecto en el colchón que tengo

Easy to put on; preventative for so many guests. Fabric draped low under the bed so I pulled it taut under the bed rails. Highly recommend.

Excelente producto, no se ajusta perfectamente,quedando libre mucha tela pero en general es un excelente producto tanto en calidad como impermeabilidad

Tal como la descripción

Sí es lo que dice ser la descripción del producto. Estoy muy satisfecho con mi compra.
