Essex Bed Bug Control

Bed bugs are an increasingly prevalent problem in the UK. They may cause substantial problems with bites and even disease, particularly if the pests are in your business property. They can be a common problem in hotels, and most hotels will use some kind of proactive treatment to detect bed bugs. Bed bugs commonly spread by travelling on clothes or luggage, so if you stay somewhere that you believe may be infested it is critical to check your personal belongings for any warning of bed bugs.

The most effective treatment for bed bugs is a professional heat treatment. This approach to treatment elevates the temperature in the area substantially. This treatment method has the benefit of eliminating bed bugs in every stage of their life cycle, even eliminating the eggs. A lot of pest control companies offer guarantees on their heat treatments which means they’ll come back and carry out additional treatment if their first stage is not effective. However, heat treatments are incredibly effective and can be executed in a single day. Also, they are very discreet as the equipment is all inside the building and there are no externally visible pipes required.

You will find DIY tools available to tackle bed bugs. However, they are often ineffective as bed bugs in the United Kingdom are quickly developing immunity to standard chemical treatments. Good preventative hygiene such as cleaning bedding at a high heat (above 60c) and regular visual checks are a great way to guarantee that any bed bug infestation is diagnosed as early as possible. Specialist pest control companies can survey the affected area and help you with the most effective method of treatment. Bed bugs can quickly spread to other areas, so treatments are often carried out in neighbouring rooms to make certain that there are no lingering insects.
