Signs of Bed Bugs

  • Itchy bites in a cluster or rough line, found on skin exposed while sleeping
  • Small reddish-brown spots on sheets or pillowcases
  • Tiny dark droppings along mattress seams, the box spring, or the bed frame
  • A musty, sweet smell in the room as the infestation grows

A small population can go unnoticed for weeks before any signs show at all, by which point it's already established.

 

Why DIY Treatment Rarely Helps

Bed bugs have built up significant resistance to the insecticides sold to consumers, so a spray rarely kills them. What it does do is disturb them, scattering the population into walls, furniture and neighbouring rooms and making the problem much worse.

 

How We Professionally Treat Bed Bugs

We use professional-grade heaters to raise the room’s temperature to at least 55°C, which is hot enough to kill bed bugs at every life stage; eggs, nymphs, and adults.

Treatment is normally complete in a single visit, but we always schedule a follow-up inspection to confirm this, and targeted insecticide will be applied if and as needed.

Bed bugs can travel through wall cavities, pipework and shared corridors, so if you live in a flat, HMO or hotel, we'll let you know if we recommend taking a look at neighbouring rooms: after all, there’s no point treating your room if they just come back again.

If you run a hotel, B&B or holiday let, rest assured that we arrive in unmarked vehicles and work with discretion (and your booking schedule) in mind.

 

Our Guarantee

Unlike other pest control companies, we don’t charge per visit. Instead, we provide a fixed and fair quote for the problem, regardless of how long it takes, keeping us accountable to fixing the problem for good.
