BED BUG TREATMENT IN NAPLES FLORIDA

How can I prevent bed bug infestations?

The best thing to do is to prevent any bed bugs from getting into your home in the first place. Once they do get indoors, they can reproduce quite rapidly and spread to more places inside your house. So, pay attention to how bed bugs may get inside your home—through soft goods like clothing or towels or items like luggage or furniture—and carefully inspect them before bringing them into your home.

If you’re going on a trip, cover your luggage with a plastic trash bag or other protective covering while you’re in the hotel or other lodging. When you get into your room, inspect the mattresses, box springs, and hotel bedding for tiny, pepper-like brown or black spots that could indicate dried blood from bed bug bites. Even if there don’t seem to be any of these spots, don’t put your luggage on the beds. When you get back home, inspect all of your belongings before taking them indoors. Wash clothing, towels, and linen in hot water before putting them away.

It’s a good practice, too, to regularly wash items, such as extra linens, that you store at the washer’s highest setting. Do the same with pet bedding. Although bed bugs don’t remain with your pets like fleas and ticks do, they can bite them, which is unpleasant for the animals.

If you shop at thrift stores or rummage sales, follow the same processes before taking any secondhand items into your Naples home.

How do Naples exterminators get rid of bed bugs?

Our expert technicians start by finding out where the pests are lurking. Then, we create a customized bed bug treatment plan that uses the safest, most effective options available today—ones that are both minimally invasive methods and as environmentally friendly as possible.

We’ve got two different types of pest control for bed bugs in Naples that you can choose between:

• Thermal Remediation®: These bed bug control treatments use high heat that kills these pests across their entire lifecycle in just one single treatment. Because it doesn’t use any chemical fumigation, pets can return home immediately after the bed bug treatment is completed; there are no toxins that could be left behind. Heat treatments are especially effective because of how they can penetrate even tiny cracks and crevices.
• Chemical Treatments: After discovering where the pests are hiding in your home, we’ll use the latest insecticide dust and residual contact treatments. This thorough pest control for bed bugs in Naples involves an initial treatment plus two follow-up visits: one week and two weeks later.

How do I prepare my house for bed bug treatment?

In general, you’ll want to move or remove items from your home that could make it difficult for our technicians to have the necessary access to treat your home. It can also help to vacuum floors and furniture well in advance of our technicians’ arrival and wash soft materials like bedding in hot water. Take your pets to a friend’s house during the bed bug treatments; your family will typically need to stay out of the home for four hours for the treatments to be completed. There may be a few heat-sensitive items that you need to move as well.

When we arrive, we’ll take care of removing mattresses, box springs, bed frames, outlet covers, and more. That way, our treatments can reach wherever the bed bugs hide.

There is little prep involved outside of that when our bed bug exterminators use heat treatments because there are no chemicals used and, therefore, no toxin residue. Your pets can even return right after the bed bug control treatments are finished. You can talk to your technician who will provide you with your plan to get answers to any of your questions.

With our chemical treatments, we’ll provide specifics about what to put away such as food items, toothbrushes, and medicines, and answer all of your questions about this form of pest control for bed bugs in Naples.

Is one bed bug treatment enough?
