My apartment had a severe case of carpet moths and Tom’s Pest Control got rid of them in just one visit. I am so satisfied with their service and it is also very cost effective! They will be visiting again in 2 weeks to make sure all the moths and their eggs are gone, which is amazing! We were advised on how to ensure the pests don’t return. Will definitely be coming here to get my end of lease pest management done!

Bed bugs in Australia are one of the most difficult pests to deal with and can be a major issue for those in the accommodation industry like hotels and motels. Once they get into your bed, removing them isn’t easy. They use places like mattresses and sofas to hide in and feed on the blood of people resting on them. Some common signs that tell you that these pests are present in your home are blood spots and dark stains on your cushions or mattresses, an unpleasant sweet smell or the sight of a live bed bug. All these signs indicate the need for bed bug treatment to keep your customers and family safe and comfortable. TPC can take control of the situation and work towards removing the bed bug infestation in your property.
Signs Your Property Needs Bed Bug Pest Control Treatment
Everyone is aware that bed bugs feed on human blood, so it is important to remove them quickly from your property. Bed bugs are commonly found in homes, hostels, dormitories, offices, and even public transport. Only when you spot the presence of these pests can you arrange for their removal.
When looking for these pests on your property, check around the folds of mattresses, sleeping bags and bed sheets. If the bed bug infestation has become more extensive, you are likely to find them in tiny crevices around the bed heads or skirting boards. Because of their reddish-brown colour, spotting them on white mattresses or bedsheets with the naked eye becomes easy. However, if they are moving around on darker furniture, you are likely to miss seeing them.
Preventative Measures to Avoid Bed Bug Infestations
Cleanliness is an important factor in keeping bed bugs away from your property. Aim to vacuum your home regularly, as this can remove the bed bugs and their eggs hiding in it. Try to reach out to clean every corner of your home to remove bed bugs and other hiding pests.
Avoid investing in second-hand furniture or mattresses, as bringing them home can invite these pesky creatures. However, if you have made up your mind to buy these, ensure you clean and treat them before placing them in your home.
Remove clutter in your home to avoid giving these pests more hiding space. The cleaner your home is, the faster you will be able to spot bed bugs hiding in various spots. Conduct bug inspections regularly so their presence doesn’t go unnoticed for long.
Bed Bug Treatment at Tom’s Pest Control
The bed bug removal treatments offered by Tom’s Pest Control professionals are designed to remove these pests from your premises immediately. We adopt a systematic approach to carefully clearing your spaces of these annoying creatures.
Our bed bug exterminators begin the process by inspecting your furniture, beds, and all areas where bed bugs may be hiding. Bed bug inspection is compulsory for devising a foolproof treatment plan that works well for your property.
Once our team prepares the most effective bed bug treatment plan, we carry out the extermination, which may include a combination of dust and spray treatments to ensure complete eradication. Next, we will guide you on how to clean the affected area thoroughly to kill all the bed bugs. After two weeks, we will return to your property to treat the area again. We follow this pattern of pest control to ensure the bugs, as well as their eggs, are removed from your property.
Importance of Quick Bed Bug Removal
Delaying bed bug removal can put your family at risk. The bites of these pests can cause allergic reactions in some. Also, their bites can lead to secondary infections like impetigo, lymphangitis, and ecthyma. If the infestation in your home is too high, you are likely to spend sleepless nights because of their biting. Lack of sleep again can affect your mental health.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q : How do I get rid of bed bugs in a mattress?
Remove all sheets, pillowcases, and any other bedding. Wash everything in hot water and dry on the highest heat setting. This is likely to kill any bed bugs and their eggs. If the infestation is severe or persists, it’s best to contact a professional bed bug pest control company like TPC.
Q : Are bed bugs harmful?
Bed bugs aren’t known to spread diseases, but their bites can be pretty annoying. They can cause itching and discomfort and sometimes lead to secondary infections if you scratch too much.
Q :How important is it to carry a professional bed bug treatment?
If you think you have bed bugs, carrying a treatment is pretty important. It helps to address the problem quickly before it gets worse. If you choose home remedies or OTC options to treat this problem, you are likely to get temporary results. However, with professional bed bug treatments, you can expect these pests to be gone for long.
Q : What do bed bug bites look like?
Bed bug bites often appear as small, red, itchy welts. They can be in a line or cluster and might look similar to mosquito bites. Some people don’t react at all, while others might have a more pronounced reaction.
Q : What do bed bugs feed on?
Bed bugs feed on blood. They usually bite while you’re sleeping, using their tiny, needle-like mouthparts to draw blood from exposed skin.
