Why Do I Need Bed Bug Control?

The biggest problem is that bed bugs pose a serious health risk for you and your loved ones. From the genus Cimex, bed bugs are a species of pest that feed on human blood, usually at night. Their bites can result in a number of health impacts, including:
  • Skin rashes
  • Psychological effects
  • Allergic symptoms
These can worsen over time and lead to major discomfort. That’s where we come in.

How Will I Know If I Have Bed Bugs?

Bed bug bites may also lead to skin changes ranging from invisible to small areas of redness to prominent blisters. Symptoms may take between minutes to days to appear and itchiness is generally present. Some individuals may feel tired or have a fever. Typically, uncovered areas of the body are affected and often three bites occur in a row. Bed bugs bites are not known to transmit any infectious disease. Complications may rarely include areas of dead skin or vasculitis.

What are the symptoms of a Bed Bug infestation?

When a bed bug bites, they release both an anticoagulant and a form of anesthetic so the person does not know they have been bitten. You won’t know until a red mark appears on your arm 1 – 7 days later. You may also notice an odour in your bed or red spots on your mattress from their fecal material.

How Do You Get Rid of Bed Bugs?

The best way to treat bed bugs is with a typical insecticide. These bugs are not as serious as termites or rodents, as they cannot collapse a building and they don’t transmit diseases. That said, bed bugs can really disrupt sleep and trigger an allergic reaction in some people. They are also dirty and unhygienic.
We provide a complete insecticide treatment for all of the relevant areas so your home is free from this particular pest.

How Much Do Bed Bug Treatments Cost In Canberra?

Bed bug treatments typically cost anywhere between $300- $600 dollars, though the exact cost will depend on the severity of the infestation and the number of sessions it wil take to completely exterminate the bugs. You can request a fast free quote here.

How Long Does Bed Bug Treatment Take?

Bed bug treatment is fairly quick, taking about 30 minutes to 2 hours per room, depending on the size and condition of the space. What’s more, one treatment will get rid of these pests for good, so you won’t need a long-term plan for your space.

How does City Pest Control deal with Bed Bugs?

​We start by having a detailed look around the area of the bed bugs. Bed bugs go everywhere and an expert needs to find them. After our Expert technicians have observed and made their decision a chemical will be applied to the area of contamination. The chemicals we place will be safe and ensure best contact for eradication. Unfortunately, it can take a couple of visits to ensure all bugs are removed. This can be expensive, but most clients are satisfied with the end result and it’s cheaper than buying a new mattress.

What Warranties Do You Offer?

At City Termite and Pest Control Services, we guarantee our services and offer a 12 month warranty to guarantee customer satisfaction.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT BED BUGS IN CANBERRA

Technically, bed bugs are not dangerous in the sense of transmitting diseases or in terms of direct fatalities or hospitalisations. However, they are pretty disgusting and will destroy your quality of life. Bed bugs feed on your blood at night and can actually go without food for several months. With a tiny length between 1mm – 7mm, they truly are little vampires!
Bed bugs have been found in 5 star hotels across the world, so cleaning your room does not keep them away on its own. Scary as it sounds, and unlike other pests, bed bugs are attracted to you alone. They often live within 8 feet of where people sleep. They hide during the day and eat at night, when people are asleep and unable to protest. Bed bugs tend to travel with people from place to place, and are experts at hiding. They are commonly found in urban centres but are actually found everywhere due to their ability to travel with their unwitting human companions.
Bed bugs prefer wood and carpet, where they live. Tiles and concrete are not hospitable to them. So you could leave your luggage in the bathroom before travelling. Wash all of your clothes before leaving and vacuum pack them. Remember to wash and dry at extremely high temperatures. Bed bugs can survive in temperatures up to 122 Fahrenheit. Vacuuming the room and the entire house is a great way to remove eggs of many pests. However, professional services are needed to get rid of them completely. Call City Pest Control for complete eradication of your bed bug issues. If a single bed bug is left alive, it will reproduce rapidly.
Bed bugs are smart, methodical, and strong. They can live for several months without feeding and can survive in both freezing and sweltering conditions. They stay out of sight during the day time and come out to feast at night when they know humans are asleep due to their breathing pattern. They release an anesthetic when they feed so the human does not know he or she is being bitten. After feeding, they hide for 6 – 10 days before returning. Because they are so intelligent, you need smart treatment. Call us for the best bed bugs treatment in Canberra & Queanbeyan.
