    Bed bugs can be killed by a direct one-hour exposure to temperatures of −16 °C (3 °F), however, bed bugs have the capacity for rapid cold hardening, i.e. an hour-long exposure to 0 °C (32 °F) improved their subsequent tolerance of −14 to −16 °C (7 to 3 °F), [39] so this may need to be maintained for longer. Freezer temperatures at ...
