Begin filling the washing machine with hot water and untie the bag over the top of it. Drop the clothes into the washer immediately upon opening the garbage bag. The water temperature in the washer should be at least 120 degrees Fahrenheit in order to kill the bedbugs. Each degree lower increases the chances of bedbug survival. Raising the temperature on the hot water heater will help ensure that the hot water temperature is at its maximum. Add the usual amount of laundry detergent and let the washer run through all of its normal cycles.
Washing the clothing in hot water and laundry detergent will satisfactorily kill the bedbugs. If you prefer to be doubly sure, toss the clothing in the dryer immediately after washing. The dryer’s heat is sure to finish off any bedbug that may have survived the wash cycle. The dryer is also a good option for dry clean only clothing. The clothing should incur no damage as long it is dry before going in the dryer. Send the clothing for a spin on the highest heat setting (approximately 160 degrees Fahrenheit) for 10 to 15 minutes. Remove the clothing afterward, rest assured that no bedbug could have survived the heat of the washer or the dryer.
If you are not convinced that the hot water in the washing machine and the heat of the dryer are enough to kill bedbugs, you may want to add another tactic to the mix. Before bringing the sealed garbage bag to the washing machine, set it outside in the sun for two or three hours. Direct sunlight will heat the plastic bag, killing and suffocating the bedbugs before they even hit the water in the washer. Stick a thermometer in the bag while it is sitting out in the heat. If the heat inside the plastic bag reaches 120 F, the bedbugs are goners.
