Bed bug removal is the main job we book for Bulimba homes. Calls usually start with itchy bites in the morning, small dark spots on the sheets or a live bug found in a mattress seam. When you ring, we ask where you are seeing signs, how many beds and rooms are involved and what type of home you live in. That lets us give you upfront pricing and book a nearby independent crew with the right gear for your place.
The crew we book begins with a close inspection of the bed, frame, headboard, bedside tables, skirting boards and power points. Once they have found where the bugs are living, they put together a plan for your home. That plan often mixes steam for fabric and seams, heat for hard-to-reach spots, a targeted spray for cracks in timber and a fine dust puffed into wall gaps. Every home is a little different, so the mix depends on what they find on the day.
- Inspection of beds, frames, headboards and furniture
- Steam and heat for mattresses and soft furnishings
- Targeted spray along frames, skirting and cracks
- Fine dust for wall gaps and power points
- A second visit around two weeks later
Bed bug eggs are tucked deep into seams and can hatch after the first visit, so most removal plans include a second visit about two weeks later. The crew will explain what to do in between, such as sleeping in your usual bed so any bugs come out and cross the treated areas, and washing bedding on hot each week.
If you have found bed bugs anywhere in Bulimba or the nearby suburbs, call 07 3543 7773 and we will book a local crew for your address.
