Effective pest control requires some knowledge about the pest and its habits. When a pest is capable of spreading human disease(s) or otherwise impacting human health, controlling that pest becomes a community concern. The risks associated with pest control tactics must be weighed against the risks to human health if the pest is not controlled.

Management should focus on mechanical methods such as vacuuming, removing or sealing loose wall surfaces (wallpaper, paint, etc.), caulking cracks and crevices, and other hiding places.

A thorough cleaning may need to be done more than once as eggs may be missed, or bugs may be well hidden during the cleaning process. Vacuum the mattress, especially paying attention to tucks and along seams where bedbugs like to hide. The effectiveness of steam cleaning has been questioned, because the mattress quickly absorbs the heat and the bugs are not harmed. Sanitation is still the best method of pest management.
