Killing Bed-Bugs-in-Semi-Trucks with Heat

Bed Bugs Traveling in Trucks

You are on the road for days, sleeping in your semi-truck. 

Nothing can make your trip more miserable than bed bugs in your semi-truck or RV sleeper. 

There are many ways the internet will tell you to get rid of the bugs and not have to drive the country with the unwelcome company. 

Many of the DIY techniques can be ineffective and dangerous. 

Not only do you have to kill the live bugs but also the eggs. 

Missing eggs will start in a never-ending circle. 

Throwing away everything in the cab will not work as you will miss bugs nesting in the pieces of the interior.
