Hints & Tips
BED BUGS
• Researchers have found that bed bugs at all life stages die quickly at
temperatures at or above 120
°
F.
• Bed bug eggs are nearly translucent and incredibly difcult to detect.
• A best practice is to heat treat all items that may have been in the vicinity
of bed bugs even if no bed bugs are found. For pictures of bed bugs and
bed bug eggs, please visit zappbug.com/bed-bug-pictures.
• Bed bugs can survive for up to 18 months without feeding. It is critical that
all potentially infested items are heat treated or, alternatively, sealed and
stored for 18 months.
• Bed bugs can atten their bodies and slip into tiny cracks.
• Bed bugs are unable to climb smooth, nonporous surfaces like the lining of
the ZappBug Oven 2.

THE ZAPPBUG OVEN 2
• Always use provided support blocks and/or net to ensure maximum air
circulation around your belongings. If your belongings are densely packed
together it will take signicantly more time for them to reach bed bug
killing temperatures.
• Make sure to turn the heating units on before placing potentially infested
items inside the ZappBug Oven 2.
• Only use indoors with an ambient room temperature at or above 70°F. The
heating unit works by adding heat to the air from the room in which it is
located. If the ambient temperature is below 70°F, the ZappBug Oven 2
may not reach bed bug killing temperatures.
• Always monitor the temperature inside the ZappBug Oven 2 with the
thermometer and thermometer probe provided.
• Do not place the ZappBug Oven 2 directly on cold oors such as
concrete. Always place the ZappBug Oven 2 on surfaces at or above 70°F.
