Box Spring Encasement - Zippered Bed Bug Dust Mite Proof Hypoallergenic - Sleep Defense System - Queen –60" W x 80" L

Having worked in the hospitality industry, we know how important it is to protect your box spring from bugs and dust mites. As a result, we have ordered lots of encasements over the years, and these from Hospitology are far better than most. This was so easy to put on the box spring, and it zipped up tight as a drum. It is well made, doesn't snag, and helps protect the boxspring from stains and moisture. We highly recommend this, especially if you are in an apartment type setting or have lots of houseguests. You just never know where pests may come from, and this will keep you protected!

I left this feedback for all the items I purchased and listed here in prevention of BED BUGS. I live in a apartment building. 10 years ago in the city I live in I never heard any mention of bedbugs. Now I hear it everywhere. I purchased the following just as a precaution. Hospitology Sleep Defense System Waterproof/Dust Mite Proof Pillow Encasement, Standard, Set of 2 Hospitology Sleep Defense System Waterproof/Bed Bug Proof Mattress Encasement,80-Inch by 60-Inch, Queen Hospitology Sleep Defense System Bed Bug Proof Box Spring Encasement, 80-Inch by 60-Inch, Queen BEAP 10013 4-Pack Detector Bed Bug Coaster Trap Diatomaceous Earth Food Grade Pest Pistol Mineral Oil I read online many, many, many different suggesting and opinions. These are most popular ideas, and I agree with them. My bed is brand new and I wanted some protection. Every thing listed I purchased on Amazon is good quality and no complaints. I was very nervous the Hospitality Sleep Defense items would have a plastic feel, but it is not the case. The Hospitality Sleep Defense for the pillows and bed have a nice soft and smooth feel to them. They make my bed and pillows feel smoother and softer. They are a good quality and feel like they will last a long time and not rip. They are very big for even the biggest of mattresses or box springs. First of all the Diatomaceous Earth Food Grade box i received is big. I used this for my entire apartment and still have more then half left in the box. Using Diatomaceous Earth Food Grade, and Pest Pistol (online comments are you can also use empty plastic ketchup and mustard bottles) I dusted all long the walls under the carpet (use a dollar store paintbrush to keep it nice and neat), and in some places I lifted the carpet up and sprayed a little on the carpet tacs that hold the carpet in place. You do not have to spray it heavy, only a light coating. Then I took the electrical cover panels and sprayed inside the walls, USE CAUTION, TURN OFF THE ELECTRICAL PANEL SUPPLY. You might want to consider wearing a dollar store face mask, the Diatomaceous Earth Food Grade will blow around a little, if you get carried away with it. Make sure you spray into all holes and crevasses (even in the bathroom) behind the medicine cabinet if there are gaps, in the trimming along the walls, closets, everywhere!!! Every room, every space!!!!!!!. Online reports and comments are that bed bug like hiding behind the medicine cabinet in the bathroom, behind mirrors or photos hanging on walls, dressers, dressers drawers, light shades. I even sprayed a little on my bed frame. Keep in mind, if the Diatomaceous Earth Food Grade gets wet, it is useless and you will have to reapply it. Also note, if you shampoo your rugs a couple times a year, like me, you may have to reapply Diatomaceous Earth Food Grade after your rugs dry. Diatomaceous Earth Food Grade kills all kinds of bugs, cutting into their hard shell bodies and sticks into their joints. This definitely gives me peace of mind when I sleep or laying in my bed during the day. Bed bugs usually feed in the middle of the night, but if they get hungry they will come out all times of the day. Isolate your bed from the walls and the floors. Only have the legs of your bed touching the floor. Keep blankets from touching the walls and floor. Nothing should be touching your walls or floor. ISOLATION! Computer power cords and cell phone cords should not be on your bed when you sleep. Although there are online reports of bedbugs climbing up to the ceiling and falling down/jumping onto beds, I am not that paranoid. Because it is a death sentence for them, they cannot escape or live in the mattress or lay eggs in the mattress because of the Hospitality Sleep Defense. Always make sure you wash and dry your blankets and sheets every week. Dry for at least 20-30 minutes on hot. BEAP 10013 4-Pack Detector Bed Bug Coaster Trap are very strong and very big. I was very surprised! I was nervous, I have a QUEEN size bed with wheels under each leg. But they fit with room to spare. Use the Mineral Oil in the outer trench of the Coasters. Bed Bugs cannot swim in it, they sink to the bottom and drowns them. But dummy me, my queen bed frame has 5 legs, one leg to support the middle of the bed. I used them on my sofa also. Good luck if you find yourself with bedbugs or using these as a prevention and defense. If you do not have the time or energy, you can hire an exterminator which will cost thousands and thousands of dollars. I am the type of person I do not like to use pesticides in my apartment unless I have to. I never use those insect fumigators, they spray pesticides everywhere and you will eventually absorb them into your skin, from the floors and furniture. If you already have bed bugs, I suggest vacuuming every inch of your bed, on your bed, box, and frame head board. Then do your furniture, sofa and recliners. Sofas, couches and recliners are much harder to eradicate bedbugs from, you might want to think about trashing it. Please, before you trash your furniture, damage your furniture so no one else takes it and gets a bedbug nightmare. When you are finished vacuuming, remove the bag, put in a plastic trash bag and TAPE IT SHUT and put outside away from your house in a trash can. They start spraying the Diatomaceous Earth Food Grade everywhere. Bed Bugs are smart creatures, they are very good at hiding until they are hungry. And they will search you out like a blood hound dog. Good luck!

Perfect fit great quality good buy

Wonderful encasement, perfect for personal or business use. I have an airbnb and this was just what I needed - will buy again from here, it was easy to put on.

installed easily, but didn't come next day as promised

It works well. It arrested the bed bugs on the bed only. That's what it's supposed to do.

Excellent product . Fairly easy to put on, but you will need two people.. the zippers and closures are excellent . Substantial material. I ordered the low profile which fit to like a glove

I just put this box spring encasement on my 9 inch wood foundation I have as a box spring for my mattress.I love it.It fits my box spring like a glove with no sagging material this box spring encasement does not sag down towards the ground like another brand I have had.I know a good box spring encasement should fit tightly and snug so you do not give bedbugs a place to nest and also be strong so it does not get holes where bedbugs can go thru and nest inside.I had a plastic box spring encasement that was nothing more than a plastic bag that fit over my box spring that had a adhesive edge along side that sealed the box spring.It was sagging down a lot almost to the ground so to make it so it would not sag I put 8 rows of duct tape horizontally across the box spring in spaced rolls from top to bottom of the box spring.With so many rows of duct tape going across the box spring there is a lot of openings where bedbugs can nest on the side of the box spring and the bottom of the box spring.There are so many cracks and crevices in the tape and also some of the tape loses its adhesive stick and comes unglued so there are 2 inches to four inches of tape that is not sticking to the plastic bag there are all sorts of creases and the plastic and tape where bedbugs can nest.No wonder I was itching always when I went to sleep in my mattress the bedbugs would come from the creases and tape rows where they where nesting climb up my mattress and bite me while I was laying in bed.I do not think plastic box spring encasement are any good mine had a bunch of holes in it from moving around my bed or bumping in to it with something sharp enough to put a hole in it.After a while the plastic becomes brittle and becomes easier to put a hole in it and if you duct tape it up you give more cracks and crevices for bedbugs to nest.I repaired the many holes I got in it from over 2 years of use with duct tape.A snug or tight fitting box spring encasement that is strong is the best box spring encasement to have.I also put Cimexa in between the box spring in mattress and bed frame but it did not cover the cracks and crevices in the tape rolls or plastic on the sides of the box spring or the bottom of the box spring.For my mattress I use Mattress Safe mattress bed bug encasement.It is so strong and comfortable.All factory mattress plastic bags are not hole free especially when you buy a more expensive thicker mattress like my 12 inch thick sealy belfair mattress has a mattress bag with about 25 holes total.I looked for them with a small flashlight and found them on all the different sides or faces of the mattress and taped them up with gorilla clear duct tape.The holes looked like they where made by a paper hole puncher the ones that punch 3 holes on the edge of the paper so you can put the paper in a binder but 3 times bigger and only 2/3 rds punched out some on top and some on bottom but none in the middle. So if you leave your factory plastic bags on check for holes and especially the thicker ones that are more fancy.Check for holes on factory plastic bags on both mattress and box spring and seal them with gorilla clear duct tape then put your bed bug encasement on.Also just because you buy a expensive high quality mattress bed bug encasement does not mean it is invincible.They can get holes in them if you lay on them with a key chain with your keys on the outside of your pants or lay something with a sharp edge or sharp object on it or a sharp end of a wire.So you must always protect the top of it by putting a blanket or sheet or comforter so it will not get a hole in it.

Excellent, fit wonderfully, and thick! I did it alone, put box spring against the wall and stood on a tall step ladder. Put it on like a pillow case. Then carefully settled it onto the frame and finished the zipper. Very nice, would get again.

Excelente producto, no se ajusta perfectamente,quedando libre mucha tela pero en general es un excelente producto tanto en calidad como impermeabilidad

I'm early on in my fight against bed bugs but so far ai definitely recommend them. They feel high quality and will easily stand up to ears of use. They seal securely and fit very well. They're hard to get on but no more hard than other similar products. They're comfortable paired with your regular bedding and don't have weird texture or noises. Definitely recommend.

Good quality, easy to put on and did not rip liked the one purchased at Walmart. Quite expensive but reflected in the quality.

Fits well, good quality
