Bed Bug Chemical Treatment

Traditional Chemical Treatment

Chemical treatments combine various types of insecticides to eliminate bed bug populations. This treatment method involves the application of insecticides throughout an infested unit, with particular attention towards cracks and crevices along the structure and furniture where bed bugs typically hide (e.g. beds, sofas, carpets, baseboards, walls). Traditional bed bug chemical treatments require greater participation from homeowners, due to the more potent nature of insecticides. Preparation guidelines must be followed as closely as possible to ensure the safety of residents and for optimal treatment results. All people and pets must vacate the infested unit for a minimum of six hours or longer if they are pregnant, nursing, have health issues or are young children. Pre and post-treatment instructions will be issued to homeowners prior to the start of a traditional bed bug chemical treatment plan.

If you suspect a bed bug infestation in your home, the best starting point is to have a K9 inspection completed.  Click here to learn more about K9 services.

Traditional chemical treatments do not require a K9 inspection, however it is highly recommended as a method to effectively locate all harbourage sites of the bed bugs within your unit.
