The name might be somewhat misleading because bed bugs can be found anywhere. It might be in your sofa, in your dining room, the curtains, a crack in the wall and storage boxes.
How can we get rid of those bedroom bed bugs?
Cleaning the room
Have
a general cleaning of rooms. Start from the top, sweep through the ceilings and on the corner. There might be eggs hiding on those parts. Check the walls for a crack and wash curtains.
Mop the floor and use some disinfectants
Checking the bed sheet, bed and matress
Check the bed sheet for eggs and bugs. You can get rid of bedroom-bed bugs by thoroughly washing the sheets and putting it in a dryer. The temperature in the dryer will help kill those bugs and its eggs.
If the spring of your bed is already coming out, repair and make sure that it was sealed or better yet buy a new one.
You can vacuum your mattress or use a stiff brush in making sure that no bedroom-bed bugs is still in there.
Spraying
One way of ensuring in getting rid of those bed bugs is by spraying some chemicals that will easily kill them. This may have some strong smell so don't let your children be in the same room once you've start to spray.
Other small techniques
Some suggested to try putting soapy water at the base of the feet of the bed and putting wax at the whole feet of the bed. Having a metal feet bed is also recommended because this will prevent the bugs from climbing up.
Heating pad may also help because bed bugs cannot survive in a high and hot temperature.
