Chemical bed bug treatments, or insecticide treatments, are among the most common methods to eliminate bed bugs. This process usually involves a differing combination of three types of insecticides: a fast-acting, contact insecticide for immediate relief from bed bugs, a residual insecticide to kill any bugs in the coming weeks, and a dust insecticide for cracks and crevices along the walls and furniture.
Let’s understand this step-by-step:
1. Inspection
A thorough inspection is the first step in any pest control strategy, including a chemical bed bug treatment. Our experts take the time to assess the extent of the infestation, locating all the areas where bed bugs are hiding.
2. Insecticide Selection
Once we’ve completed our assessment, we select the most appropriate insecticides. We ensure these chemicals are safe for domestic use yet highly effective against bugs.
3. Application
The next step is to apply these insecticides methodically and carefully. The fast-acting, contact insecticide is sprayed directly onto visible bed bugs to kill them instantly. The residual insecticide is then applied around the perimeters of the room and bed, as well as in common hiding spots like the seams of mattresses and furniture gaps. These long-acting insecticides will remain effective for weeks, killing any bugs that come into contact with treated surfaces. Cracks and crevices at your place are administered with a dust insecticide to reach any bed bugs hiding in these difficult spots.
4. Follow up
More than one-time treatment is needed to eliminate a bed bug infestation due to its high reproduction rate and ability to hide in tiny, hard-to-reach places. Therefore, multiple treatments are usually necessary, and professionals often schedule follow-up visits to re-apply treatments and ensure overall success.
5. Prevention
The experts will provide helpful advice to prevent future infestations after the treatment. That may include tips on regular cleaning, de-cluttering, and the usage of bedbug-proof cases on mattresses and pillows.
Please remember, despite its effectiveness, trained professionals should always perform chemical treatments as incorrect use of these substances can be harmful.
