    Q
    If the mattress already has bed bugs, does Protect-a-Bed mattress cover work?
    Will it encase the bed bugs on the mattress so that they do not get to the person to bite them? Will the bedbugs eventually die?
    A
    Any bed bugs you seal up in the Protect-a-bed Bed Bug Mattress Cover cannot escape or bite through the cover, and will eventually die. This means you can save your bed bug infested mattress without throwing it out. Protect-a-bed Bed Bug Mattress Cover are made of breathable, 100% white terry cotton so they are soft, cool and comfortable to sleep on. They are also allergy proof, dust mite proof, waterproof and absorbent, machine washable, and come with a 10 year manufacturer's warranty against defects in workmanship and materials.

    Q
    Is it ok to steam the Protect-a-Bed Allerzip mattress cover while it is on the mattress?
    Is it ok to use the bed bug control steamer on the Protect-a-Bed Allerzip mattress cover while it is on the mattress? I do not want to take it out from the mattress to wash it just to make sure that if there are any bed bugs trapped inside the zipped cover they should not escape if I take out the mattress cover.
    A
    We do not recommend steaming the mattress encasements. You should steam the mattress before placing the encasement on it. Any bedbugs that are left on the mattress after the encasement has been put in place will eventually die from starvation. The Protecta Bed mattress encasements have a special waterproof backing and you will risk blistering the backing if you choose to steam it. Also, the mattress encasements have special bedbug proof zippers which will prevent bedbugs from entering or exiting.

    Q
    I'm not sure about mattress size, if I get thicker Protect-A-Bed Mattress Cover will it be OK?
    A
    We cannot accept returns of mattress covers once they have been opened.  You should measure the length and the width and height or thickness of the mattress cover before purchasing.  You can always call us and tell us the measurements and we will be happy to tell you which one you need.

    Q
    Can a mattress encasement be used to cover a boxspring too?
    A
    Absolutely.  Many of our customers purchase the mattress encasement for the box spring also because the mattress encasement is a little sturdier and waterproof.

  • Asked by Madhusudan
    11/28/2010
    Q
    Do you carry a mattress cover that will fit a mattress that is 4 inches in depth?
    I am using a queen sized memory foam of 4 inch height, directly on the floor with no mattress. The memory foam doesn't have bed bugs, but they are crawling onto the cover which I am using in the night time. The pesticide treatment kit which I brought from your site has not eradicated them. Can the Protect-A-Bed AllerZip Bed Bug Mattress Cover help me? If so, which size do I need to choose? Do you carry 4 inch depth covers?
    A
    It is very important to remember that bedbugs do not only hide on beds, but they can hide around the perimeter of the room, in wall voids, under the lip of the carpet, in clothes and in/on other furniture. Adding a mattress encasement to a memory foam mattress that does not have any seams of folds for the bedbugs to hide in, it will not help your problem. You must treat the entire home every 7-10 days until you do not get any bites for 30 days. If you live in an apartment, it is very possible that you are getting re-infested by your neighbors and you would need to contact building management who would need to inspect and treat all infested apartments.

    Q
    I have an adjustable bed. Will using it (moving mattress up and down) tear the cover?
    A
    Protect-A-Bed AllerZip Bed Bug Mattress Covers are actually encasements that zip up and cover the entire mattress which usually makes them unsuitable for adjustable mattresses because of the cables/wires coming from the mattress itself. You can contact Protect-A-Bed, the manufacturer, to see if they have a product that may better fit your needs. 866-297-8836

  • Asked by Kritter from Ph

    Q
    Protect-A-Bed AllerZip Bed Bug Mattress Cover - QUEEN too large for my 60x75x8 mattress?
    The queen size listed here is 60x80x9. However, my mattress is only 60x75x8. Will the 60x80x9 fit?
    A
    The Protect-A-Bed AllerZip Bed Bug Mattress Cover - QUEEN should be just fine for your mattress though it may be a little bit loose. The manufacturer of the mattress cover only makes standard sizes as do most of the other mattress cover manufacturers and your mattress does seem to be either an older mattress or a custom mattress.

    Q
    What is the weave count for your coverings? Mattress, Box Spring, Pillow
    A
    There is not a thread count on the Protect-A-Bed products as you would find with sheets.  These products are encasements meant to go under fitted sheets and pillow covers.

  • Asked by Pamela from Scottsboro,alabama
    11/27/2013
    Q
    How do I put the mattress cover and box spring cover on?
    A
    Putting a mattress and box spring encasement on will require two people. This will prevent and tears in the fabric. The mattress and box spring will be zipped in the cover. You will begin at one end (located on the cover- it tells you what side belongs at the foot or the head of the bed). Start on one side and gently insert  the box spring in the cover and zip. Repeat with the mattress cover.

    We only carry the AllerZip brand by Protect-A-Bed which has a terry cotton top.  It is not listed as being either basic, premium, or luxury and they are only offering the Smooth cover or a basic on their site which does not match ours.  You can check with Protect-A-Bed directly to confirm what category they consider ours, at 1-866-297-8836.
