Available to DLI’s member drycleaners, the poster stresses the fact that the heat used in the drycleaning process is more than sufficient to kill bed bugs.

The DLI poster features a frightened man cowering in bed at the thought of becoming a victim of the bed bug epidemic. “We know how to solve this unhealthy pesky problem,” it reads. “If you suspect that any of your items are infested with bed bugs, bring them to us in tightly sealed plastic bags and we’ll take care of the rest.”
