At White Knight Pest Control, we talk to thousands of customers every year, and those who have had bed bugs in their home have consistently expressed that it is easily one of their least favorite experiences ever. It doesn't take much thought to understand why. It's difficult to sleep when you know there are little bugs coming out at night to bite you. Furthermore, although it's possible to use DIY methods of treatment if you put in the time and research, trying to get rid of bed bugs on your own can be daunting and difficult.
If you have a bed bug infestation and you've either tried to treat it without success or you'd rather skip all the hassle and get right to professional treatment, White Knight Pest Control is ready to help. Our experienced technicians have the skills and equipment necessary to identify and treat bed bugs and our bed bug control services are guaranteed.
If you suspect that you have a bed bug problem, they must be positively identified as bed bugs before treatment as they are often mistaken for other pests. You don't want to falsely identify them and end up with a treatment that you don't need and that doesn't work to solve your bed bug problem.
This process can begin with you. If you are waking up in the morning with bug bites that you didn't have the prior evening, you may have bed bugs. However, this is not a guarantee of bed bugs. Fleas also often bite sleeping homeowners so these pests are often confused for one another. A couple of differences between bed bug and flea bites are that bed bug bites are often located on the torso and typically follow a linear pattern, while flea bites are usually on the extremities, especially around the feet and ankles, and are in a random pattern.
Other signs of bed bugs include finding tiny red dots on your sheets or blankets, finding small tannish-brown streaks on your sheets or blankets, and finding bed bug casings, eggshells, or live bugs along the seams of mattresses or furniture.
If you've seen any of these signs, it's time to contact White Knight Pest Control. We'll send one of our skilled technicians to perform a visual inspection. Because of our years of experience treating bed bug infestations, we can identify whether your pest infestation is a bed bug infestation or another pest infestation, then move forward accordingly.
As you know, especially if you've tried do-it-yourself bug control methods, eliminating a bed bug infestation is not an easy task. It requires time, skill, and attention to detail. Luckily, the technicians at White Knight Pest Control are well-versed in these areas and we'll work hand-in-hand with you to put a stop to your bed bug problem.
When it comes to dealing with bed bugs, preparation is key. That's why prior to your bed bug control service, we'll provide you with a detailed checklist of tasks that you must complete before our initial treatment. By carefully following these preparation guidelines, you'll help ensure that your bed bug treatment is as effective as possible.
On the day of your initial treatment, you'll need to leave your home for the duration of the treatment. The time it takes us to complete the treatment will vary based on the size of your house and the number of rooms we treat. Although we offer room-by-room treatments, bed bugs are excellent travelers and easily move about, so we recommend whole house treatments for the most effective results.
Your bed bug control plan includes a follow-up visit 10-14 days after your initial treatment. During this visit, your pest control technician will perform a thorough inspection to look for any continued bed bug activity. If they find any, they'll perform a spot treatment to the necessary areas to ensure your bed bug problem is completely resolved.
Your bed bug control plan also includes a 30-day service guarantee from the day of your initial treatment. If you find bed bugs or signs of bed bug activity during this 30-day period following your initial treatment, contact us and we'll return to inspect and re-treat as necessary.
Don't let bed bugs keep you up at night. Instead, partner with White Knight Pest Control and get started with our guaranteed bed bug control services!
While some do-it-yourself bed bug treatments can be effective, most homeowners choose to go the professional route. Not only does White Knight Pest Control provide top-quality bed bug control services, but we offer a 30-day guarantee with our bed bug control.
Our bed bug control treatments are effective at eliminating bed bugs in all stages of development. We use a combination of treatment methods, including liquids and dusts to eradicate your infestation completely.
