The Bedbug Battle Plan: Pre-Treatment Prep
Step 1: Secure Your Soft Belongings
Bedbugs love to hide on soft items. To outsmart them:
- Remove all soft, washable items from the affected area.
- Seal them in plastic bags before moving them to the laundry—this prevents spreading the bugs.
- Run a safe heat cycle in your washing machine. High temperatures are bedbugs' worst enemy!
Step 2: Wardrobe Wipeout
If your bedbug activity is high, take action with your clothes:
- Empty your drawers and closets.
- Bag your clothes in plastic before taking them to be washed.
- Again, heat is key! Make sure everything goes through as hot of a cycle as possible.
Step 3: Create a Clear Combat Zone
To effectively treat your space, we need clear access:
- Remove items from the floor and keep them away from walls.
- Place them off the floor but away from beds.
- Clear any clutter or breakables (remember, we're not liable for these if left in the treatment area).
Step 4: Safety First for All Occupants
Safety is our top priority:
- All people and pets should leave the premises for at least 4 hours post-treatment.
- Do you have a fish tank? Cover it with a heavy blanket and seal it.
Step 5: Post-Treatment Care
Our products need time to work their magic:
- Avoid using chemical cleaners or doing deep cleaning for 2 weeks after service.
- For minor cleaning, mild soap and water are best, and steer clear of treated areas when possible.
- Once the treatment is over, re-introduce your soft items only after a heat cycle.
