Bed Bug Treatment
Bed Bug Treatment
What Was Applied Today & What to Expect
What We Applied Today
Botanical Spray
A plant-based contact spray was applied directly to mattress seams, box spring folds, headboard crevices, and baseboard gaps.
Desiccant Dust
A fine layer of food-grade diatomaceous earth or silica gel was applied in wall voids, baseboard gaps, and bed frame joints.
Encasement Recommended
We recommend encasing your mattress and box spring in a bed-bug-proof cover — this eliminates hiding surfaces and makes monitoring much easier.
What to Expect
7–10 days for initial results
Botanical sprays and dusts work over several days as bed bugs contact treated surfaces.
Follow-up in 2–3 weeks
We will follow up to re-inspect and re-treat any remaining activity. Multiple treatments are often needed.
6-week monitoring period
We will confirm clear status at the 6-week mark. Bed bugs can survive months without feeding, so monitoring is critical.
Your Role in This Treatment
- Wash all bedding in hot water (120°F+) and dry on high heat for 30+ minutes immediately.
- Do not move furniture or bedding between rooms — this can spread bed bugs to new areas.
- Keep the bed pulled 6 inches from the wall and ensure bedding doesn't touch the floor.
- Check interceptor cups under bed legs weekly and report any captures.
✓ Safe for Family & Pets
Treated surfaces are safe for contact once fully dry — approximately 30–60 minutes after application. Botanical sprays have a light herbal scent that fades quickly.
