Bed bugs are hardy little creatures that multiply and hide in places in your home like cracks and crevices, furniture, carpets, cabinets, beds, and sofas. Unfortunately, bed bugs can happen to anyone, regardless of hygiene or cleanliness. Without taking the proper steps, a bed bug infestation in your home can be difficult to get rid of. A lesser known place where bed bug infestations can occur is in your shoes. Here are some ways you can protect your shoes from bed bugs.

· Wear your shoes often. Bed bugs don’t like to live in things that move around often. This is why you’ll mostly find them in furniture, mattresses, or cracks. Wearing your shoes often will reduce the chances of a bed bug infestation in your shoes.

· Keep your shoes away from your bed. Bed bugs like to live inside or close to human resting places since humans are their food source. Shoes that are living under your bed or near it make great places for bed bugs to hide.

· Store your shoes inside a box or plastic bag. Storing your shoes inside a box or plastic bag can lower the chance of bed bugs finding a home inside your shoes. Bed bugs cannot get through sealed covers, so keeping your shoes sealed up will keep the bed bugs out.
