Bedbugs Control

Bed Bugs Pest Control Melbourne

As their name would suggest, bed bugs are commonly found in beds or objects close to where humans sleep. Bed bugs can become an issue in travel lodgings, student accommodation, and in fact any residential home.

The bites of a bed bug can leave you with intense itchiness and irritation on exposed areas of your skin. Bed bug bites can also cause your skin to swell. It is best to contact a bed bug exterminator in Melbourne immediately if you suffer from bed bug bites.

Bed Bugs As A Pest

Bed bugs are wingless with a flat, oval-shaped body which is usually light brown in colour. The bugs can become red and engorged after sucking blood from its victims. Bed bugs are small, ranging from 1-5 millimetres in length. There are two main species of bed bugs found in Australia: climex lectularius which is also known as the common bed bug, and c. hemipterus or also known as the tropical bed bug.

Bed bugs emerge at night to feed and then return to their hiding spot during the daytime to digest the blood they have consumed. However, it is not unheard of for bed bugs to come out to feed during the day. Bed bugs prefer human blood, although they will also feed on other warm-blooded animals.

Detecting Bed Bugs

Usually, you will know that you have a bed bug control problem if you discover bites on your body. The bites can be found on different places over the body and can appear in orderly rows, as opposed to a random pattern.

Different people have varying reactions to bed bug bites. For some, the bite site will become red and intensely itchy, any time during the course of the night or over the next two weeks. Other people may have little or no reaction to the bite at all. Victims of bed bug bites will also have to cope with the psychological discomfort of having a bed bug problem.

You may also detect bed bugs by spotting any dark stains or blood spots on your mattress or around your bed, as well as catching sight of the live insects themselves. Besides that, heavy bed bug infestations can cause a distinctive sickly-sweet smell around your bed.

Bed Bug Treatment

When it comes to bed bug treatment in Melbourne, you should always try to seek professional help from bed bug control experts instead of attempting to get rid of them yourself.

DIY methods include washing and tumble drying your bedding at high temperature and vacuuming your bed and mattress. However, these steps usually only help to control the problem rather than eradicate the bugs completely. You should also avoid applying any chemical treatments yourself; one reason behind this is because bed bugs can actually develop immunity to common chemical treatments over time.

A professional bed bug exterminator is licensed to use an effective mixture of chemical treatments to get rid of bed bugs. The exterminator may use dust pesticide to penetrate voids and cracks, or pesticide sprays at targeted areas. A follow-up treatment may also be needed because chemical treatment could kill adult bed bugs, but be less effective against any eggs that have been laid.

Tokoku Australia

Herman came promptly on the day. The service was done thoroughly and professionally. Before the pest control, our home was basically infested with spiders and other creepy crawlies. That was 2 months ago, and until today we have not seen a single living spider inside our home/even on our veranda and garage. Just dead ones. And that’s how we like it. Thank you Herman!

Kenneth Thor

Herman is friendly, punctual, turned up when he said he would, methodical and insightful in his diagnosis before proceeding with a systematic rodent control treatment. From feeling like the house was being over run with mice, to not even hearing anything two days after Herman’s treatment, we are very happy. You can trust this professional and his reasonable pricing is totally worth it. Don’t put up with the pests any longer!

Fangwei Ong

Herman did the termite perimeter protection treatment for me in 2018. His price is competitive. Some other companies want to charge 50% more and also try to charge ongoing service fees. Recently I had to get a small section retreated due to some other repairs. Herman's services are reasonably priced. I will recommend him.

Harry Tan

We had chronic termite issue at our house and were very happy with the service and choice of treatment. Very professional service that did the right things by the customer. Would highly recommend these guys.
