Causes, Treatments and Prevention

Causes

Treatment

Prevention

Travel and Movement

Bed bugs are excellent hitchhikers and can be transported via luggage, clothing, and furniture. Travelers returning to Phoenix may unknowingly bring bed bugs into their homes.

High Population Density

Urban areas with high population density, such as Phoenix, provide ample opportunities for bed bugs to spread quickly between homes, apartments, hotels, and public transportation.

Secondhand Furniture

Infested furniture, especially mattresses and upholstered items obtained from secondhand sources, can introduce bed bugs into homes.

Lack of Awareness

Many people are unaware of the signs of bed bugs or how easily they can spread, delaying treatment and allowing infestations to escalate.

Treatment

Inspection and Assessment

Our certified technicians conduct a detailed inspection to identify the extent of the infestation and locate bed bug harborages.

Heat Treatment

Heat treatments are highly effective in killing bed bugs and their eggs. We use specialized equipment to raise the temperature in infested areas to levels that are lethal to bed bugs.

Insecticide Applications

Insecticides may be used in targeted areas where bed bugs are found. We use EPA-approved products that are safe for indoor use and effective against bed bugs.

Steam Treatment

Steam treatments are used to treat cracks, crevices, and upholstery where bed bugs may hide. The high temperatures of steam effectively kill bed bugs on contact.

Mattress Encasements

Encasing mattresses and box springs in bed bug-proof covers helps to trap any remaining bed bugs and prevent them from escaping or feeding.

Follow-Up Inspections and Treatments

Bed bug treatments often require multiple visits to ensure complete eradication. We schedule follow-up inspections and treatments as needed to monitor the situation and address any lingering bed bug activity.

Prevention

Inspect Secondhand Items

Thoroughly inspect secondhand furniture, mattresses, and clothing before bringing them into your home.

Travel Tips

Inspect hotel rooms for signs of bed bugs before unpacking. Keep luggage off the floor and use luggage racks when available.

Education and Awareness

Learn how to identify signs of bed bugs, such as rusty or reddish stains on bedding, mattress seams, and live bed bugs themselves.

Reduce Clutter

Minimize clutter in your home to eliminate hiding places for bed bugs.

Seal Cracks and Gaps

Seal cracks and gaps around baseboards, electrical outlets, and pipes to reduce hiding places for bed bugs.

Regular Cleaning
