It's all about the muting technique , and there are 2 main types of muting :

1- Picking Hand muting :

a) Palm muting : generaly for strings above (lower pitch) the one you're playing.

b) Free Fingers muting : If you hold your pick between index & thumb , you'll have three fingers free to mute the strings below (higher pitch) the one you're playing.


2- Fretting Hand Muting :

a) Rest your fingers slightly on the strings below the ones you're playing to mute them.

b) With the finger you're fretting with , slightly touch the string above it to mute it.

c) Use your thumb for muting.

d) If you're not using the index for fretting , lay it on all the strings to mute them.



These are just few methods for muting , use or combine any of them with your bending and the noise will be gone.
