How to treat bed bugs

Unfortunately, there are no DIY solutions for you to try at home that will eradicate bed bugs once they’ve spread. As bed bugs are notoriously difficult to get rid of, there are two possible treatments available with varying degrees of effectiveness. Bed bugs and other insects are resistant to chemical treatments meaning the most effective and common eradication is through heat treatment.

Benefits of Heat Treatment

• Rapid removal – Due to the very high temperatures applied, heat treatment will completely eradicate your bed bug problem in a 6-8 hour application

• Kill all stages of bed bug – Once the heat treatment is applied, all life cycles of bed bugs are eradicated; including eggs, larvae and adult sized bugs. The chemical treatment doesn’t work on the eggs which is another reason why people opt for the heat solution.

• Safe – There no minimal chemicals used in the heat application meaning it’s safe to use on most furniture
