Bed bugs are a particularly common issue in the UK. They can cause significant problems with bites and even illness, especially if the pests are in your business premises. They can be a common problem in hotels, and most hotels will use some sort of proactive treatment to find bed bugs. Bed bugs often spread by travelling on clothes or luggage, so if you stay anywhere that you suspect may be infested it’s important to examine your personal belongings for any indicator of bed bugs.
The most effective treatment for bed bugs is a specialist heat treatment. This approach to treatment raises the temperature in the room considerably. This treatment has the benefit of eradicating bed bugs in all stages of their life cycle, even eradicating the eggs. A lot of pest control firms offer warranties on their heat treatments meaning they’ll come back and carry out further 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 noticeable pipes required.
You will find DIY tools on the market to tackle bed bugs. However, these are often ineffective as bed bugs in the United Kingdom are quickly developing immunity to standard chemical treatments. Good precautionary hygiene such as cleansing bedding at a high heat (above 60c) and regular visual checks are a good way to be sure that any bed bug infestation is recognized as early as possible. Expert pest control companies can survey the affected area and inform you of the best approach to treatment. Bed bugs can quickly spread to other areas, so treatments are usually carried out in neighbouring rooms to make certain that there are no lingering pests.
