In most cases, we can't be sure where the bedbugs come from. However, we know one thing for sure....you want to be rid of them!
That said, many of our clients have questions regarding bedbugs. We have compiled a list of the most common questions that our clients ask us regarding bedbugs. Click on the blocks to the right (or below on a mobile phoe) to see the answers.
Bedbugs can enter your house in a variety of ways, including through luggage or clothing after travelling. They can also be brought in with used furniture or bedding, or by hitching a ride on pets or other animals.
Retail sprays may slow the spread of bedbugs, but will rarely eradicate them. Professional application of high quality treatments offer you the best chance of complete eradication. There are 2 industry standard treatments for bedbugs. Insecicides & heat treatment.
This treatment involves sparaying the affected area with a pesticide that works well on bedbugs. This includes, baseboards, under beds and in any cracks that the bedbugs could hide in.
This treatment involves connecting a powerful furnace to your home and heating your home to 50+ degrees for a period of 3-4 hours. This ussually kills all of the bedbugs, but is very expensive.
In addition to these treatments, we perform several other treatments that other pest control companies don't do. Our proprietary extras significantly increase the likelihood that we get the bedbugs the first time around. Give us a call at (416) 646-9711 (or email us) , and we'll explain how our process is simply better.
Once the bedbugs have been eradicated you will have to take a few simple steps to prevent a re-infestation.
While it is likely that all the bedbugs were killd when exposed to the insecticide, it is recommended that you cover your boxspring, and mattress with a "bite proof" bedbug cover. Any bugs hidden in the mattress will die.
If you travel a lot and stay in hotels you might want to consider bagging your clothing and laundering it as soon as you get home.
Our clients are the reason that we exist. That's why we love it when they are happy with our work. Here's just a couple of comments:
Our technician "Brian" was very professional with excellent customer service. He was at my house taking care of my problem within a couple of hours of my phone call. He was very attentive to the situation and checked in often with his findings and how to proceed. He provided me with advice and even took the time to give my neighbour advice too. I would highly recommend them!
Great company . I wasn’t happy with my previous exterminator. This company was trustworthy professional and got the job done!!
