Bed Bug Extermination

---

While every situation is unique, our typical bed bug treatment program spans approximately three weeks. The process begins with a comprehensive crack and crevice treatment across all infected areas. A follow-up cleanup treatment is performed 14 days later. Finally, a third visit is scheduled 7-10 days later for re-inspection to guarantee your home is bed bug free.

Bed bugs often hitch a ride into homes through clothing or suitcases after travel. Another common route of infestation is through second hand furniture.

While bed bug bites can trigger an allergic reaction, they are not associated with the transmission of any diseases.

The following is a list of tips or recommended practices to avoid bringing bed bugs into your home.

1. While staying at a hotel, inspect your mattress for signs of bloodstains, bugs, and excrement. Additionally consider storing your suitcase off the floor for added protection.
2. Upon returning from a trip, keep your luggage outdoors, unpack clothes, and launder all washable items in hot water or tumble dry on high heat.
3. Carefully inspect any second hand furniture that you bring home.

Many questions have been raised regarding the effectiveness of total release foggers against bed bugs. Bed bugs typically hide in cracks and crevices and the pesticide must contact the pest to kill it.
