Ebola Pathogen Data Sheet from Canada

Ebola are moderately thermolabile and can be inactivated by heating for 30 minutes to 60 minutes at 60°C or 140 F.   This is similar to decontamination for bed bugs  

In medicine, the term "labile" means susceptible to alteration or destruction. For example, a heat-labile protein is one that can be changed or destroyed at high temperatures.
