Bed bugs do not only live in bedrooms. If someone often naps or sleeps on the couch, bugs will settle there too, tucking into the seams, under the cushions and inside the frame. We book couch bed bug treatment across Bulimba for fabric lounges, leather couches, sofa beds and armchairs.
The crew we book removes the cushions and checks every seam, zip and fold, then turns the couch over to look at the base, legs and the fabric stapled underneath. Steam goes into the fabric and seams, and a targeted spray or dust may be used inside the timber frame where people do not sit. Sofa beds get extra attention, since the folding mattress and metal frame have plenty of hiding spots.

Leather and some delicate fabrics need a lighter touch, so tell us what your couch is made of when you call. Cushion covers that come off can often be washed on hot and dried on high heat before the visit. The crew will also check nearby rugs, side tables and skirting boards, since bugs often wander a short way from where people sit. If the couch is where someone has been sleeping most nights, the crew will treat it just like a bed, with the same close checks along every seam. Try not to move the couch to another room or out to the kerb before the visit, since that can spread bugs along the way.
If bed bugs have moved into your lounge room in Bulimba, call 07 3543 7773 and we will book a local crew.
