Bed bugs can quickly plague your home, inflicting itchy bites on you and your family. With their tiny size and rapid movement, these pests will take hold of your indoor space in a short period without being detected. When they infest your property in Texas, a professional bed bug control service is what you need to get rid of them. But what can you expect from this kind of service? When you sign up for a bed bug control service, the process begins with an inspection to pinpoint infested areas so they can be isolated. The treatment process itself involves applying the product to different spots in those areas, like under the baseboards, behind the faceplates of light switches, nightstands, dressers, and more. It also includes a 2-week follow-up after the treatment to ensure the bed bug infestation has been taken care of. If they think it's necessary, professionals will reapply the treatment.

When you sign up for a bed bug control service, the first step that professionals will do is to inspect your property. They will do a thorough inspection of your property to pinpoint areas that are infested by bed bugs. During their visit, they'll check all possible bed bug-hiding areas, like mattresses, sofas, baseboards, and more. Then, they will isolate the affected rooms to keep the infestation under control and prevent it from spreading to other areas of your home. The inspection will not only help the professionals understand how severe the infestation is but also create a treatment plan that is specific to your property.


Steps Involved During the Bed Bug Treatment

After the inspection and isolation of the infested areas, the next step is the treatment process. Bed bugs are extremely small and highly invasive, which means they can easily infest different areas inside your home undetected. It's only when the problem is severe that you begin to notice the issue. That is why the treatment process to eliminate bed bugs is meticulous and involves several steps, including:

  • Dusting and spraying under baseboards, including the area where the baseboards meet the floor.
  • Taking off the faceplates of light switches and treating behind them, as bed bugs can hide there.
  • Treating around and under furniture like nightstands, dressers, curtains, cabinets, closets, and other areas.
  • Applying the treatment to surrounding areas as well. This will add another layer of protection for your inside space to ensure no bed bugs transfer to other rooms.
Professionals will have you remove any soft items from the infested rooms to throw in the dryer on high heat for 30 minutes to kill any remaining bed bugs on them.

After the initial treatment, professionals will do a follow-up to ensure the bed bug infestation has been taken care of.

A professional bed bug control service does not end after treating your home. After the treatment, the professionals will schedule a follow-up inspection after 2 weeks. This follow-up visit involves thoroughly inspecting and checking the treated areas again to ensure the infestation has been taken care of. If the pest control professionals see that there are still a few bed bugs left, they will reapply the treatment as needed.
