How to Treat Bed Bugs

Unfortunately, once an infestation has spread, there is no effective DIY method of bed bug removal. Once a heat or chemical treatment has been arranged, we advise belongings are stored away and the area made as clutter free as possible. Bedding should be stripped and washed on a cycle above 60C. All of which will enable the treatment to work as quickly as possible.

Diatomaceous earth is commonly used to reduce bed bug activity. This organic compound, made from crushed fossils, is used as part of our heat and chemical treatments, although will not fully eradicate a problem if used alone.
