Bed bugs are small, reddish-brown insects about the size of an apple seed. They hide in mattress seams, bed frames and furniture during the day and bite at night. They usually arrive in luggage, second-hand furniture or clothing. If you are waking up with itchy bites in a row, or finding tiny dark spots on sheets in Logan Central, call us for upfront pricing and a nearby independent crew.
Bed bugs are very good at hiding. The crew we book checks mattress seams, bed bases, bedheads, bedside tables, skirting boards and power points near beds. Once they see how far the problem has spread, they treat the affected rooms and tell you what to do with bedding, clothes and furniture. More than one visit is normally needed, as eggs can hatch after the first treatment.

In units, townhouses and share houses in Logan Central, bed bugs can spread between rooms or neighbours, so it helps to tell the building manager or housemates early. Do not move mattresses or furniture to other rooms before the visit, as that can spread bed bugs through the whole home.
Before the visit, wash bedding and clothes from affected rooms on a hot cycle, dry them on high heat and seal them in bags. Clear clutter from under beds. To book bed bug treatment and get a price, call 07 3543 7767 and we will organise a local crew.
