Pests We Treat Photo Album: What NOT to Do For a Bed Bug Treatment in Somerville, NJ
Powder Everywhere
As I began inspecting the bedroom, not only did I find bed bugs in the bed and the chair, but there was residual powder all over the baseboards, the furniture, and even underneath the mattress!
DIY Pest Treatment Gone Wrong
The homeowner tried treat the bed bug problem on his own, but didn't follow the label for proper treatment and, not only applied too much, but treated the wrong areas!
Leave it to the Pest Pros
This not only made their infestation worse (because the bed bugs spread to other areas of the home), but also presents a severe health issue to the family! This is why it is always important to have a pest professional properly treat your home.
Use the Vacuum
I carefully cleaned up the homeowners application and vacuumed up all the live bed bugs and their eggs.
Effective Bed Bug Treatment
Next, I treated every outlet throughout the home with a residual dusting product and then used a natural biopesticide application that will eradicate bed bugs of all life stages, sex, and feeding status within a short amount of time. It's a safe product for humans but lethal to bed bugs.
One Last Step
Lastly, I installed a mattress and box spring encasement on all the beds and scheduled several follow-up visits to monitor the infestation and, if needed, apply any additional treatments.
