Residential Bedbug Control

Bedbug treatment designed around your household

Finding bedbugs at home is stressful. Sleep suffers, children are uncomfortable, and it can be hard to know who to trust. Our residential service is built to take that uncertainty away: you will know what we are going to do, what you need to do, and what it costs, before any treatment starts.

What we treat in a home

Bedbugs stay close to where people sleep and rest, so treatment concentrates on:

• Beds — mattress seams and piping, bases, bed frames, slats and headboards.
• Bedroom furniture — bedside tables, drawers, wardrobes and dressing tables near the bed.
• Seating — sofas, armchairs and cushions, especially where someone sleeps or naps.
• The room itself — skirting boards, cracks, curtain folds, sockets and other hiding places found during inspection.
• Other rooms where evidence is found. We check rather than assume.

Children, pets and vulnerable family members

Tell us if anyone in the home is pregnant, a baby or young child, elderly, asthmatic or unwell, and whether you have pets or fish. This affects which products and methods are suitable and how long people and animals should stay out of treated rooms. You will always be given:

• Clear instructions on who should leave and for how long.
• The re-entry period for the specific products used — not a generic number.
• Guidance on bedding, laundry and cleaning after treatment.

Two treatments, six days apart

Our standard residential treatment is the two-treatment eradication programme. The first visit treats the active infestation; the second, six days later, targets bedbugs that survived and nymphs that have hatched since. Prices are per visit by the number of bedrooms — see the price list below — and the programme is backed by an eradication guarantee under its written terms.

Your part: preparation

Preparation makes a big difference to results. Common steps include bagging bedding for hot washing, clearing items from under beds, emptying bedside drawers and keeping belongings in the affected room rather than moving them around the house. You will receive instructions specific to your home; our preparation guide explains the general principles.

Flats and shared buildings

If you live in an apartment, bedbugs may be coming from — or going to — a neighbouring unit. We can advise you on how to raise it with your landlord or management, and we work directly with property managers on multi-unit buildings.

Not sure it's bedbugs?

Bites alone are not proof. Use our guide to identifying bedbugs in your mattress and bedroom, or book an inspection first.
