I do not want to buy a mattress protector.

I do not want to buy a mattress protector I will just buy a new bed or keep the old one.

Mattress protectors are very important to trap any bed bugs in your
bed or bed base.

It also make our job a lot easier as we do not have to spend hours dismantling your bed. Bed bugs do not exclusively hid in your bed they can be anywhere but bed bugs do prefer the bed or head boards. Hence the name. Even if you through your bed out, you could have more bed bugs visit your house in the future.

I feel a mattress protector is vital. And in a hotel 100% essential to
stop continual reinfestment.
