The key to bed bug eradication is being thorough, as they are so small and tend to come out at night to feed on you!

INSPECTION:

First to establish were the little devils are hiding.
Bed bugs tend to be where you sleep, so they can feed on you.
Most people tend to move bed once they start getting bitten.
The problem is this tends to spread the problem as bugs can be in bedding, duvets and night clothes.
We have seen a 3 bed house infested as the householder has moved to each bed.
Then ended up on the sofa, where they were still getting bitten!

Mattress folds, sheets and bed frames are all inspected (please remove anything embarrassing from under the bed before we visit and yes its happened!) Other areas of the bed rooms are inspected such as cracks and crevasse as they like to hide in dark areas. This includes behind wall paper and light and power sockets. Evidence such as shed skin, blood spots and live adults.

Once our qualified professional has thoroughly inspected the area, a plan of action will be recommended. With knowledge of the life cycle and the science in eradicating bed bugs, using suitable insecticides and growth regulators to kill eggs, nymphs and adults.
