MORE ABOUT BEDBUGS

About Bedbugs

Bed bugs are visible to the naked eye. They live in the cracks and crevices of mattresses and headboards. They also live behind curtain boards, in plug sockets and any other little gap where they can hide until feeding time. To identify a bed bug infestation, check around the edges of the mattress, the buttons, springs and the headboard for black marks. These are the bed bugs’ droppings.  Often the first indication of bed bugs is blood spots on sheets followed by itching. Bed bugs appear at night to feed on whoever is in the bed, and their bites cause irritation and distress. Scratching the bites can lead to secondary infection. By the time people realise there is a problem, it will be quite bad.  Bed bugs are small insects that feed on human blood and are most active at times during the night when we are in our deepest sleep.  A single adult bed bug can live for up to a year without feeding as they go into a dormant state.  Once feeding regularly, a female bed bug will lay up to 500 eggs in a couple of months.  Bed bugs are transported from infested areas when they cling onto clothing, or crawl into luggage, furniture or bedding.  

Temperatures below 25 degrees F will freeze and kill bed bugs.  Bed bugs are exceptionally difficult to get rid of because they hide so well and don’t need to feed very often.

Female lays about 2 – 3 eggs a day in the same places where the bugs hide. The eggs are yellowish white in color about 1 mm long. Some 300 eggs can be found in cracks and crevices of buildings and furnitures. The eggs usually hatch after 8-11 days.

The newly hatched bed bug is pale yellow in color and resemble as adult but is much smaller in size. There are 5 nymphal instars. This period commonly last for 5-8 weeks.

Adult bed bug can live 6 – 9 months without food. Bed bug can withstand a long period of starvation up to 500 days.

How To Prep For Bedbug Treatment

For best results, follow preparation instructions below. More time spent on preparation will be rewarded with faster results.

 
Basic preparations
 
      •      Clothes: Pick up all cloth on floor and hanging over chairs and launder.
      •     Dressers and closets: It is not necessary to remove clean clothes or other items from inside dressers and closets unless these items are clearly infested (visible bedbugs). Ornaments and other items can be left in place.
      •     Bedding: Remove all sheets, comforters, pillows and any other bedding covers or skirting from mattresses and box springs in all bedrooms.
      •     Cabin beds/ Beds with built in storage: Remove all clothing items from these storage areas and launder.
      •     Laundry: Wash in the hottest water setting possible and then run through a hot dryer cycle for a minimum 40 minutes. Place these clean dry clothes in a large bag sealed at the top until the treatment has been completed.
      •     De-clutter: This will assist in removing potential bed bug harbourage. Check items for signs of infestation.
      •     Facilitate perimeter access: Move all furniture items away from walls to allow access to the baseboards around entire room.
      •     Baseboards: Vacuum baseboards to remove dust build up from these areas. Remove the vacuum cleaner bag or contents of the canister, place in a plastic bag and dispose of it in the trash can outside of home.
 
IMPORTANT
 
      •     DO NOT RE-ENTER TREATED AREAS FOR 4 HOURS AFTER TREATMENT.
      •     Cats and dogs must also vacate the treatment areas for 4 hours after treatment
      •     Cover fish tanks.
      •     Do not spray any pesticides or cleaning products in treated areas after the treatment. This will affect the treatment and result in control failure.
 
Please note
 
ALLOW THE TREATMENT TIME TO WORK, DO NOT CLEAN OR REMOVE THE SPRAY BARRIER. Under certain lighting conditions these barriers may be visible. Leave them in place until you are certain that the infestation has been eradicated. The barrier will remain active for up to 3 months if left undisturbed. It can be easily removed with kitchen or bathroom cleaner when required.
Live bed bugs may be visible for 2-3 weeks after the treatment. Affected bugs may be seen wandering in unusual places, this is a sign that the treatment is working. Remember that bed bugs may not leave their harbourage areas for days after the treatment, and nymphs hatching from eggs will not be affected until they cross a spray barrier. However, all bed bugs will die within 3-7 days after coming into contact with Aprehend.
 
A follow up inspection will be conducted approximately 30 days after treatment.
