One thing I fear the most – always – is bed bugs. Just those two words sends chills down my spine and makes my stomach turn. I don’t know if you’ve seen the news recently, but bed buds are running rampant in many cities, including hotels, and they also invade homes. One way to help prevent bed bugs at home is with the Invisicase Surround Protector from Leggett & Platt. It is a protector that fits around your mattress, in hopes of preventing bed bugs. This is especially important if you are planning on buying a new mattress, or currently have a mattress but do not have a protective cover for it {and hopefully don’t currently have bed bugs!}.
Of all mattress types, the benefits of a tried and true innerspring mattress can’t be matched. Research from Kansas State University’s Institute for Environmental Research shows that an innerspring sleep surface dissipates heat at a faster rate than other sleep surfaces. This means that innerspring mattresses not only help you sleep cooler, but it can reduce heat and moisture, which is the perfect breeding ground for bedbugs.
When purchasing a new mattress, it’s also key to seal bedbugs and other microorganisms out from the onset. With a mattress protector like the Invisicase Surround Protector, bedbugs can’t find their way into your mattress. Invisicase also repels body fluids and moisture and allows vapors to easily breathe through the protector. Invisicase is also a great solution for “gently used” mattresses.
Although I don’t have bed bugs {and let’s hope I never do!}, I think that the Invisicase Surround Protector will be essential on my current mattress, which is fairly new, and on any mattress I buy in the future. I really am just not interested in bugs crawling and biting on me while I am sleeping peacefully. Blech!

I was just telling my husband about the Air Dream Sofa Sleeper System I saw on their website too – his brother is coming to visit in a couple of weeks, and we sure could use the extra bed. They are available in sizes Twin (perfect for bunk beds!) through Queen, and they are so reasonably priced! I also found some really good sleep tips on their site as well – who couldn’t use a perfect night’s sleep? Now, if only I could get my cats to read those tips!

Thank goodness, we’ve never had a bed bug problem. My hubby travels a lot and I do worry sometimes about him bringing home a bed bug in his suitcase. I would also love to have their Nara Bed. That would look awesome in our newly remodeled bedroom!
