How long to use bedrails w/a twin bed?

How will I know he won't need them anymore?  It's a pita with changing sheets.  But, it's only been about a month.

I did until about 3 with Ethan. I read on here (after I had already removed them) that 3 is the age where they gain awareness in their sleep to not fall out of bed.

We bought a rail when DS's crib was in the daybed position.  It lasted about 2 weeks.  He slept in the daybed for so long that by the time he went to a full size bed, he was a pro.  I can't remember the last time he fell out of bed.

I took Ian's off last week. He has a captains bed though so it is only about a foot off of the ground.
