What you get

Closure: zipper all round.
Waterproof, as the maker states.

How to use it

Slip the pillow in and zip the cover shut on the short end.
Wash the cover with the sheets; a dryer on high heat is what the EPA names for bedding.
Check the seams and the zipper end for holes when you change the sheets.

Will it fit?

Sizes: Standard. The maker prints no depth for this cover: measure your mattress and check the size label before you open the package.

Quilted cotton pillow protector you can leave on show

Quilted stitching on the face makes this protector look finished enough to use without a pillowcase, and the maker suggests exactly that. It fits a Standard pillow and is made from cotton. A durable nylon zipper closes it, designed by the maker so it neither snaps nor catches the fabric.

The maker describes the zipper lining as locking with no gap once closed, and calls the protector bed bug and dust mite proof. The cover is waterproof, so perspiration, drool and spills stay off your pillow. A machine wash on cold is all the care it needs, and stains come out with that one wash, the maker says.

Waterguard Quilted Zippered Pillow Protector is part of the Bed Bug Blocker catalog, on the pillow encasements shelf.

How to use the Waterguard Quilted Zippered Pillow Protector follows the EPA and the University of Kentucky: zip it shut, leave it on for a year, and stand the bed legs in cups.

This is general information about keeping bed bugs out of a bed, not pest control or medical advice. A licensed pest professional, your doctor and the maker's own instructions come first.

What the public sources say

U.S. EPA, "Protecting Your Home from Bed Bugs". Calls bed bugs hitchhikers on luggage, furniture and clothing, says they can survive several months to a year without feeding, and advises a high quality encasement for the mattress and box spring, checked regularly for holes. Read October 30, 2026.
University of Kentucky Entomology, ENTFACT-636 "Bed Bugs". Says bed bugs zipped inside an encasement eventually die, that an encasement does not stop a bug from climbing onto the bed, that a trap under each leg with the bed pulled off the wall makes the bed an island, and that a dryer at medium-to-high heat for 10 to 20 minutes kills all life stages. Read October 30, 2026.
CDC, "About Bed Bugs". States that bed bugs are not known to spread disease, that bites can cause itching, loss of sleep and rarely allergic reactions, and that bed bugs travel in the seams and folds of luggage and clothes. Read October 30, 2026.
