One Good Reason to Buy an Organic Mattress – Bed Bugs Can’t Survive in Them
Bed bugs are real, they live in places like your mattress and could be very active when you are sleeping.They can bite humans, and cause them to develop allergies.
These bedbugs are microscopic yet can cause problems for you and your family as they live and reproduce inside your mattress and furniture. They will cause allergies to you and your family members and cause more illnesses. These little insects can bite you at night while you are sleeping. You can get allergic reactions to these bites and you can also have these places become infected. How can you avoid bedbugs?
Organic Mattresses is one way that you can avoid bed bugs. These mattresses are made out of wool, which are not attractive to bed bugs. The bugs will not and can not survive in wool.  Even if your bed is covered with an organic cotton barrier cover this will protect you from the bugs for less money. The insects will be unable to break through the barrier of this material and will protect you better.
Since you spend a lot of time in your bed everyday, you won’t want to have to it be a health hazard. If you don’t have organic, there are still a few things that you can do to control these critters. To get the bed bugs under control you can vacuum your bed and furniture frequently. Flip the mattress and do both sides of the bed. You can have it professionally cleaned every few months by a company that will come out and use steam to kill them and clean the mattress for you. This is the most effective way to control these insects that live inside the material.
Organic Mattresses can make your family feel better and get a better night sleep. The organic crib mattress is made for the baby’s crib giving them a great opportunity to a healthy start. This will prevent them from developing allergies.
please send me the data that supports your statement that bedbugs cannot survive in wool mattresses
I, too, have found nothing in Google from a credible source (university or unbiased research organization) that supports the claim that wool kills, prevents or dissuades bed bugs. I’d like to see the source for that claim, also.

I have a captive audience of people with bed bugs and entomologists who I’m sure would LOVE to test one of these Organic Mattresses to see if they deter bed bugs. I have never seen any data like this.

The entire text is an unbeliavable amount of bullshit, and I can easily guess that who wrote it knows less than zero about bedbgus biology and behaviour.
Moreover, bedbugs are entirely regardless of what material the mattresses are made of, simply because they usually don’t live IN them.
A “Organic Mattress” will became a “Infested Organic Matress” in a week or two, exactly like every other mattress.

Damn I got good eyes. These “microscopic” bedbugs look from 1-5mm to me or like a small apple seed.
What a crock!
Hi,
Sorry I think you have accidentally confused dust mites and bed bugs.
Dust mites are the ones that live inside mattress and feed on human skin cells. They can be associated with an allergic reaction that resembles bites. They are microscopic and most of the images you will see are either artists impressions or scanning electron micrographs.
Bed bugs however are larger, as others have said adults can be up to the size of an apple pip. They differ from dust mites in that they actually bite people and live on human blood. The bites can be particularly nasty and if not correctly and professionally treated than can be an issue for a long time. There has been a lot of media attention about bed bugs and how they have come back from near extinction just 6 or 7 years ago to become a major problem in most major cities. One of the best things people can do is to learn the facts about them and how they can either detect them quickly or avoid them in the first place. There are some great websites out there such as:

I have no personal experience of organic mattress for dust mite problems but a simple and cost effective solution can be mattress encasements that allow the material to breath but contains even the microscopic dust mites. They are certain good for the purpose they were designed.
Hope that helps.

Please post more information supporting this conclusion. There is no reference I can find that says anything about bed bugs not being able to survive in wool. Also, vacuuming, although good hygiene practice, is not a solution to bed bug infestation.
