How to Prepare for Bed Bug Treatment
Do you intend to treat your home for bed bugs? One of the most crucial things tenants and homeowners can do to guarantee that their bed bugs are successfully eradicated is to prepare for bed bug treatment. Depending on the type of treatment and inspection, different bed bug preparation procedures and regulations apply.
The following areas are some general actions you may do to aid your termite exterminators in performing efficient extermination.
Bedrooms
All goods kept under the bed should first be taken out and inspected. Second, remove all sheets and linens from mattresses, cots, sleeper sofas, cribs, and any other location you sleep, then properly launder them. Box springs and mattresses should be taken out of the bed frame and placed against a wall. Any foldable cots, beds, or sofa beds should be left open for treatment.
Walls and Floors
All locations that need to be addressed must have their floors free of clutter. Bed bugs have fewer places to hide when there is less clutter, which also makes it easier for the exterminator to enter the area. Vacuum your place first, of course. Take close attention to any fabric furnishings, and use a crevice tool to reach beneath baseboards. After finishing, quickly empty the vacuum bag, seal it, and properly dispose of it.
Furniture and Closets
Remove furniture from baseboards and walls at least two feet away. This will make it easier for the exterminator to treat those difficult-to-reach places where bed bugs prefer to hide. You should empty everything and look over the things that are kept inside. Clear bookcases and checkbooks for bed insect trace, particularly hardcovers spines. Keep the books on the floor stacked in one spot, but keep them away from the walls and any walkways.
Pets
Plan to have all of your animals, including birds and reptiles, left alone for at least 24 hours. Dishes used for feeding pets should be cleaned, emptied, and covered. Bedding for pets needs to be washed just as thoroughly as your own. During service, fish tanks should also be taken out of the building.
