MattressesYou spend a third of your life in bed (if you’re lucky), so a good mattress is a investment.Bedbugs are small blood-sucking insects that live in cracks and crevices in and around beds.
They crawl out at night and bite exposed skin to feed on blood. Adult bedbugs are oval-shaped, flat and up to 5mm long – similar to an apple seed. Their colour varies between dark yellow, red or brown. Bedbugs aren't dangerous and don't spread any diseases, but some people experience a reaction to their bites and they can be stressful to live with. How to get rid of bedbugs Signs of a bedbug infestation can include: Bedbugs tend to prefer fabric or wood over plastic and metal, and often hide near to where you sleep – for example, under the mattress or along the headboard. But they can be found away from the bed in other furniture, along the edges of carpets and even behind mirrors or inside smoke alarms. Bedbugs can be very difficult to get rid of. Your best chance of successfully treating an infestation is to get professional help. Contact your local council or a pest control firm that's a member of the British Pest Control Association or National Pest Technicians Association.
A technician will carry out an inspection to confirm an infestation. They can then use special treatments such as insecticide, a steamer or rapid freeze system to get rid of the bugs. They may also advise about things you can do to help, such as: Bedbug bites are painless, but some people experience a reaction to them. This can occur from a few minutes after being bitten up to a week or two later. The bites usually fade in a few days. If they're very itchy, you can buy a mild steroid cream (such as hydrocortisone) or antihistamine tablets to relieve the itch. See your GP if you develop signs of a skin infection (pain, redness and swelling). You may need antibiotics. It can be difficult to avoid bedbugs, as they can be transported easily in luggage, clothing and furniture. Once in your home, they can quickly spread from room to room. They don't jump or fly, but can crawl long distances. Bedbugs aren't attracted to dirt, so they're not a sign of an unclean home, but clearing up any clutter will reduce the number of places they can hide.

Helping you get a better night's sleep Look Out For The Buy British Beds Logo By sleepcounciladmin on June 10, 2015
Keep your eyes peeled this summer for retailers displaying the ‘Buy British Beds’ logo and posters in store as part of our month long campaign on why it’s important to buy British beds. There are many reasons for choosing to buy British when buying a bed and we have a long history of producing the best beds in the world. • British bed making is a thriving industry with more than 100 manufacturers making beds across the length and breadth of Britain, many of them National Bed Federation (NBF) Approved members. • They are among the most innovative producers of beds in the world, the inventors of the pocket spring and latex foam and early embracers of new technology, such as memory foam, as well as masters and protectors of craft traditions like tufting and hand side stitching. • British beds are among the safest in the world, complying with stringent fire and other safety regulations and standards. • For extra reassurance that the bed you’re buying is clean and honest, as well as safe, make sure you look out for those that feature the NBF Approved logo as well as the Union Jack British beds logo.
