Sleep is your sanctuary but not when it comes to a bed bugs infestation. The technicians at Ottawa’s best pest control want you to know that you should take action at the first sign of bed bugs. The war on bedbugs begins with you. To speed up the process of bed bugs removal there are many things you can do yourself, safely and effectively.
Confirm the infestation
Have you noticed small bites on areas of your body that are exposed during sleep? Tiny rust-coloured spots on your sheets? You might have bed bugs. To confirm an infestation you’ll need to take a closer look at your bed. Bed bugs like to hide from plain sight. The most likely places to find them are in the creases, folds, and seams that lie near the corners of your mattress, boxspring, and headboard.
Important steps to take once an infestation is confirmed
Now that you know you have bed bugs, the real work begins. First, you’ll need to purchase a bed bug proof mattress encasement, but before using it there are a few steps to take.
Strip the bed, then bag and secure all bed linens. Thoroughly vacuum the mattress, box spring, headboard, and any carpeting and upholstery in the room.
Bag and secure the contents of the canister or vacuum cleaner bag. All draperies, clothing, and fabrics should be bagged and removed from the room. The mattress encasement can now be used.
Wash and dry as many items as possible on the hottest settings. Put everything else outside on a balcony or in a garage if possible. The bed bugs will die from the high heat or will starve if kept from their food source.
