Bed Bug Pest Control 

Bed bug pest control is one of the most difficult pest control jobs there is. Because of their small size and secretive habits, bed bugs can hide almost anywhere. With them being blood feeders, they don’t readily ingest insecticides on surfaces, so it’s important to be thorough and quick when it comes to bed bug removal. Thoroughness and precision are therefore required to achieve bed bug elimination. Every single place where bed bugs may hide has to be treated.

More so than with other types of pest control, effective bed bug control also requires cooperation from the customer. We’re not going to sugarcoat things: proper eradication requires some work on your part. Before our technicians show up to perform the job, we’ll need you to do the following:

  • Remove all linens from the bed and place them in a closed plastic bag.
  • Take all personal clothing and put it in sealed plastic bags.
  • Clear all items from shelves and countertops and place them in closed plastic bags.
  • Empty all closets and place contents in sealed plastic bags.
  • Remove all items from under the bed and cabinets into sealed plastic bags.
  • Unplug and remove all electronic equipment.
  • All drawers in the bedroom and living room must be empty.
  • All shoes must be taken out of the room.
  • All pets and animals must be taken out
  • Remove all mirrors and picture frames from the walls.
  • The only things that may be left in bedrooms and living rooms are empty furniture.

While these may seem like a ton of steps, they are the most important way to ensure homeowners experience proper bed bug eradication. These first steps also protect your property, so be sure not to miss a bullet point. Feel free to discuss more with any of our bed bug extermination experts.

Bed bugs are unique, requiring many different methods for eradication and identification. When getting rid of bed bugs, the inspection is one of the most important parts. We use it to identify the entire area we’ll be working with, including dissecting the locations around your home where the bugs live and where they have entered. With each meal, they reproduce, and because of their small nature, it’s easy to miss hundreds of bugs without a thorough bed bug inspection.

Our inspections are a huge part of what makes us one of the top bed bug companies in the region, as we examine mattresses, upholstery, beds, and more. We search for every sign of bed bugs using special tools, including shredded skin, excrement, and eggshells. Once the inspection is complete, we’ll explain what we found and how we plan for bed bug fumigation.

The bed bug treatment will include a thorough, precision application of insecticides to all cracks, crevices, and voids where bed bugs hide. This includes bed frames and other furnishings, baseboards and trim, and any other harborage areas, so we need access to the entire room.

Depending on the severity of the problem, we may also perform crack-and-crevice treatment of mattresses, box springs, and upholstered furniture. Treating or replacing these items is usually made on a case-by-case basis, so we’ll make our recommendation when we perform the inspection. Most people prefer to replace the furniture that bed bugs have heavily infested because the fecal stains are unsightly and may produce lingering odors.

After the treatment, there are a few more tasks we require to ensure proper bed bug fumigation:

  • Residents must stay out of the home for 8 hours.
  • Bed linens, pillow covers, and clothes must be placed in a dryer on high heat for at least 40 min.
  • Any clothing item that is drier safe must be placed in the dryer on high heat for at least 40 min. The dryer on high kills all bed bugs and their eggs that may be on any clothing item.
  • Do not wash the carpet for at least 30 days.
  • Do not wash walls or rinse areas treated.

How Do You Know if You Have Bed Bugs?

For many, bed bugs are an obvious pest, but for others, they can be relatively difficult to identify. Being proactive is key to proper bed bug extermination, and that starts with knowing that bed bugs are the pest invading your home. One of the key signs you have bed bugs is bite marks that appear at night. These bugs are most active at night and leave blood stains on pillows and dark rusty spots on walls or clothes, and you’ll often smell a strong odor in the area. Check around books, closets, storage areas, and other tight-knit locations. If you notice the bugs or are still unsure, contact our bed bug exterminators in Contra Costa County.
