You don't have to throw out all your clothes and you can sleep on real bedding. Bleach in the wash kills them(you end up with alot of bleached out stuff), collodial silver kills them if you put it in the rinse, also as a surface spray. H202 kills them as well. Ozone will kill them in the air. I take a spray bottle of food grade 3% H202 every where I go, I keep myself disinfected this way.
