More people are having to look for bed bugs exterminators in London as bed bugs infestation becomes a more common problem. The increase in bed bugs in London is likely to be due to increased travel. Another way bed bugs are spread is through second-hand furniture.
It can be very hard to get rid of bed bugs once they have taken up residence in your home or premises. You may not be aware of a problem until you discover bed bug bites on you or your family. And once bed bugs take up residence in your bedroom they can ruin the quality of your sleep and cause discomfort from the bites. Some people may even develop an allergic reaction.
Bed bugs are parasitic insects that, unlike fleas, spend little time on their host. Bed bugs are small, brown, or reddish-brown oval-shaped insects about the size of an apple seed. They have flat bodies and strong legs. They normally come out at night.
They tend to hide in groups, in cracks and crevices near to the host they are feeding on. They suck blood from the host and normally feed every 5 to 7 days. Bed bugs can survive for a year without food.
Bed bugs go through 6 stages in their life, with the final stage being adult maturity. As they grow they shed their outer exoskeleton. The newly hatched nymphs are very small and translucent. The adults move in a way similar to ants and when crushed give off a bad smell.
Bed bugs, like fleas are attracted by carbon dioxide. They are also drawn to the warmth emitted by a host and by certain chemicals. They tend to hide from the light.
Bed bugs do not survive with heat and sunlight.

If you want to get rid of bed bugs in your house you need to take the following bed bug treatment steps:
Please do not enter to treated area for 3-4 hours.
To ensure effective treatment try to keep the room warm and dry. Do not vacuum for minimum of two weeks or longer if the room is not hot and dry. All created surfaces including walls must not be washed for at least two months.
Although you must avoid bare skin contact with the wet insecticide once dry it is recommended that you sleep in the room again. This is to encourage the bed bugs to come out and come into contact with the insecticide. You may see some bugs for a couple of weeks after treatment but if you see them after this period a second treatment may be necessary.
Finally, do not add any other untreated furniture to the room until you are sure the problem has been cleared.
If you want us to come out after treatment we also provide a follow-up service to check that the process has been effective.
