I've noticed some bug eggs that are white to yellow in color on the folds of the carpets on my stairs. I'm looking for temporary solutions to deal with this situation while I plan to hire someone to remove the carpets altogether. Any tips?

If you're planning to replace the flooring, removing the carpet yourself might be an easy option! Just be sure to get a good look at the subfloor; it’ll help you get a more accurate quote from contractors. Also, there are kid-safe products out there that can help dry out the eggs temporarily. Just make sure to check the labels!
You could try vacuuming the eggs up and then throwing away the bag or contents to ensure they're disposed of properly. It might be helpful for your peace of mind while waiting for a professional. But remember, if there are any eggs hidden away, vacuuming won’t catch those. Just keep an eye out for any further signs of bugs!
What about the eggs that are hard to see? Is there a chance they could hatch?
Is there a specific product you can recommend for drying out those eggs?
