How to get rid of beds bugs quickly and easily
If you have Bed bugs don’t worry, you are not alone. We get many calls every day concerning this growing problem. However, if you follow our simple guidelines, you should be able to get things under control quickly.
The one thing I can’t emphasize enough is a clean mattress. Bed Bugs love mattresses. To a Bed Bug, a mattress is a fast food take-away, with us humans providing the source of food - our blood! It is the perfect home, being warm, dry and with plenty of food around. Best of all, a warm human to curl with and bite at night. It couldn’t get any better for them.
The Bed Bug Plan. You will need to buy:
1). Chose a day when you can blitz the affected room(s) in one go.
2). Remove all the bedding down to the bare mattress and if you can, lean it against the bedroom wall. Wash the bedding on the hottest wash it will take. Clear the floor area and start by giving the room a good vacuuming.
3). Light one of our Bed Bug smoke bombs, close the doors and windows and leave for about 1- 2 hours. Open the windows, let the fumes escape then vacuum again. Clean around the edges of the carpet where it meets the skirting board.
4). Spray the bed frame with one of our Bud Bug Killer sprays.
5). And now the VERY important bit. Encase the mattress in one of our Mattress Protector Covers. This will stop any of the eggs that will have been laid, from hatching in the coming weeks and getting out of the mattress. They are encased and cannot get out at all. If you don’t do this, the problem will only come back in weeks to come.
6). In the following days and weeks, keep giving the room a good vacuum cleaning.
If you have more than one room infected, do both together. If you don’t, by simply walking from your “infected room” to your newly clean one can start the whole thing off again.
