A Bad Bed Bug Infestation
As you can see the mattress is heavily infested with bed bugs.
In the Corners & Crevices
Bed bugs love to harbor in tight crevices of mattresses and other areas where they feel pressure on both sides of their body. They can also be found in other areas of a home where they have close access to a blood meal.
Process to Eliminate the Bed Bugs
For treatment, the first step was to vacuum up all the live bed bugs and their eggs. Next, we treated every single crevice of the mattress, headboard, bed frame, and other areas of the bedroom with a fungicide application. The fungicide application is going to create a barrier that will infect and neutralize the bed bugs quickly.
A Dusting and a Follow Up
Afterward, we treated every single outlet throughout the bedroom with a residual dusting product. This will target bed bugs of all life stages, sex, and feeding status and exterminate them within a short amount of time. After all that was done, we schedule a number of follow-up inspections with the homeowners to come back out, monitor the bed bug activity, and apply any additional treatments if necessary.
