How to prepare for bed bug treatment

Good preparation helps the technician inspect and treat the right areas safely and effectively. Exact instructions can vary depending on the treatment method, so always follow the preparation advice given when your appointment is confirmed.

Remove valuables, jewellery, important documents and other delicate personal items from treatment areas.
Clear floors, skirting-board edges and access around beds, sofas and bedroom furniture.
Put away food, medicines, toiletries, children's toys and pet bowls or pet items that could be exposed.
Protect or move sensitive electronics, loose cables and other items that should not be exposed to spray, if advised by the technician.
Do not move potentially infested bedding, furniture or belongings into other rooms unless the technician tells you to do so.
Children and pets must be kept away from the treatment area for the period advised by the technician and the product instructions.

Important: the technician's treatment-specific instructions always take priority. If anything is unclear, ask before the visit rather than moving or disposing of items unnecessarily.
