What should I do to prepare for my treatment?
–Don’t rush to throw away all your belongings, most items can be treated. If you do need to dispose of anything, we can help you make that determination. You make the problem worse by spreading the infestation throughout the house.
–Don’t go to your local hardware store and buy whatever pesticide they have on the shelf. Most often these products can actually do more harm than good.
–Don’t sleep in another room to avoid bed bug bites. They will just follow you and your infestation will spread to other rooms of the house. They are attracted to body heat and the carbon dioxide we exhale. If they are hungry, they will find you.
–Do: Declutter your home as much as possible, preventing harborage areas. Inspect items carefully as you remove them. Remove items from underneath your bed and away from the walls. This makes inspection and treatment more effective.
–Do: Protect your Bed with a mattress encasement. We have them available for purchase, if needed. Or you can buy them from a local supplier.
–Do: Use a vacuum. Vacuuming is one of the most effective ways of removing bed bugs. Vacuum frequently – especially in areas where bed bugs are known to hide. Immediately dispose of any contents of the vacuum and clean if possible.
DO: Contact Pest Pros today for more information and to schedule a no-obligation inspection to identify the extent of your issue, and make recommendations for treatment options.
