This review is from: SLEEP SAFE BED BUG, DUST MITE, and ALLERGEN PROOF "TWIN 9" Mattress ZipCover, Twin 39" x 75" x 9"deep ENCASEMENT - compare price
I woke up several mornings in our guest room (to try out the bed) with itchy red patches on my neck. My southern grandmother used to have a saying about life: "If it isn't fleas, it's bedbugs." I thought bedbugs had become extinct along with the Black Plague, but what else could be causing this? My college roommate was coming the next week to stay in this room so I had to act quickly. I looked for bedbug remedies online and found this mattress covering at Amazon.
This mattress cover was so reasonably priced compared to others I'd looked at I was concerned perhaps the quality was lacking, but I was pleasantly surprised when it arrived that it was fine. It's lightweight and breathes--do support the mattress when you're putting it in the covering. It is super value for the price and seems to get the job done--will probably order more for all the mattresses in our house. My roommate had a great visit (with no complaints) and I haven't had any red patches since. I've since learned the U.S. has had a bedbug epidemic because people aren't using chemical pesticides as much which makes me feel better about my housekeeping. Why purchase an ordinary mattress cover for the home when you can get one that is dust/mite/bug proof for the same price or less? I also bought pillow covers from the same company for our beds and have loved them as well.

For the price, I don't think you can beat it. I bought a vinyl one in the beginning and tossed it after one day because of the awful smell. It wasn't until much research later that I learn how toxic the off gassing from vinyl was. Then I found this which was much more moderately priced than the cotton or polyester covers. We had some bedbugs and my first reaction was to toss all the mattresses in the house. Then I read that it wasn't necessary since bedbugs hide in the cracks in floor/wall and will reinfect any new mattress. So then I vacuumed the entire room/mattress and launder all the sheets/pillow cases/stuff animals in HOT water then 40 mins in HIGH HEAT, then I silicone caulked the entire bottom baseboards in the room and any cracks or holes I saw. Then I covered all the mattresses with the evolon. It's been a week and so far so good. The mattress encasings don't make much sound and doesn't feel hot. It feels rough when I first opened it but after I put it on it was fine. I do suggest that if you have the newer mattresses with a mattress top that you get a deeper fit, like 12-15 inches instead of 9. I have an non-mattress top mattress and it was a snug fit.
Pillow cases are a little stiffer but that may be because I have tempurpedic pillows and they don't fill out the entire standard pillow case. It says that it can be washed and that the more you wash it, the softer it gets and is still effective against bedbugs so I will try it.

We've been battling bedbugs for awhile now. Our first line of defense, after some research, was to buy protective covers for our mattresses. As far as my family can tell, the encasement has worked, but it's hard to say if the few remaining bites we receive are still coming from the bed frame, or if they are making their way out of the encasement, or if we get them while in other areas of our apartment. With constant washing of bedding and frequent vacuuming and steaming of all furniture and rugs and mattresses, we've definitely seen an improvement. If we are able to rid ourselves entirely of these bugs, we'll be able to better say if the encasement is 100% successful at keeping them trapped within. The encasement is soft, breathable, and comfortable enough that we don't even notice that we have it on.
