Bedbug control measures:

Vacuuming is an effective way to remove visible bedbugs, nymphs, and bedbug eggs.

Using high-temperature steam on mattresses, furniture, and carpets can kill bedbugs and their eggs without using harmful chemicals.
Our bedbug control services:
1. Spray treatment:
Bed bug sprays provide residual protection. The spray eliminates the bedbugs present in the cracks and crevices. Bedbug sprays can be applied during severe infestation. Our technicians remove the cots, wooden furniture, and wall hangings before the spray treatment. Then, our technicians spray the chemical and leave it for a residual effect. The next spray should be applied in the next 15 days of the first treatment. Approach a pest control service near you to schedule the spray treatment.
Advantages of bed bug spray treatment:
1. Bed bug spray is applied in the target areas.
2. There is no need for frequent application because it leaves a residual effect.
3. Bedbug spray is cost-effective.
2. Heat treatment:
Bed bug heat treatment treats heavy to moderate infestations. Bed bugs cannot thrive above a certain level of temperature. Our technicians use this strategy to eradicate bed bugs using heat and avoiding other chemical treatments. Building or room temperature is raised to a lethal level where bedbugs cannot survive.
Our technicians ensure the property sealing of heat-sensitive things in the room.
