To make sure what you can't lose is on backups. Folk often forget that advice and then are spending thousands on data recovery.

I see this question has been discussed before so all I will is about backup of what you can't lose.

Bed Bug Heat Treatment vs Laptop Results

I am answering my own question concerning Laptop going through the bed bug heat treatment ..
The heat treatment will not harm Laptops or any electronics. The heat is set to 161 degrees for
3 hrs , with no ill-effects to the computer..I've moved into a Veterans Housing Facility for the time being. And
everything a person brings MUST go through this process..
