Bed bugs travel in luggage, second-hand furniture and on clothing, so any home can pick them up after a holiday, a guest's stay or a new couch. Small itchy bites in a line, tiny dark spots on the mattress seams and a musty smell in the bedroom are the usual signs. We take bookings for bed bug treatment across North Lakes and book a nearby independent crew to inspect and treat the affected rooms.
The crew we book checks mattresses, bed frames, bedheads, bedside tables, skirting boards, power points and nearby furniture, where bed bugs hide during the day. They treat the affected areas and explain what to do with bedding and clothing before and after the visit. Bed bugs usually need more than one treatment, and the crew tells you upfront how many visits are likely and what each will cost.
- Mattresses, bases and bed frames
- Bedheads, bedside tables and drawers
- Skirting boards, carpet edges and power points
- Couches and chairs in affected rooms
- Advice on washing, drying and bagging bedding
Before the visit, the crew asks you to wash bedding and clothing from the affected rooms on a hot cycle and dry them on high, then keep them bagged until after treatment. Please do not move furniture from an affected room into other rooms in North Lakes homes, as that spreads the bed bugs further. For any health worries about bites, ask your doctor. Bed bugs can also hide in luggage, so if you have just come back from a trip, keep suitcases out of the bedroom until the crew has checked them.
