Judge Bedford's Decision on the Bedbug Case

Bedbugs are one of the most difficult insects to eradicate. Recent studies have indicated that bedbugs are resistant to many pesticide products currently on the market, so effective bedbug control requires a comprehensive, integrated bedbug management approach.

Effective bedbug control requires customer cooperation, extensive vacuuming, steam cleaning, encapsulating the infested bedding, the application of pesticide products where needed, and several follow up treatments. This is a major job, not just a matter of "calling the exterminator" and the bedbugs magically disappearing.

Preparing for a Bedbug Control Job

Steam-Cleaning for Bedbug ControlIt is imperative that painstaking attention be provided to every possible harborage area, as well as a high level of cooperation on the part of the customer. Customers preparing for a bedbug treatment are expected to do the following prior to the arrival of the pest control technician:

  • Remove all clutter and stored items, the more the clutter the more harborage is provided for bedbugs, and the more complicated to provide an adequate treatment.
  • Strip all beds in the affected room(s) and thoroughly vacuum the mattresses. (If possible, steam-cleaning will greatly increase the likelihood of success of a bedbug job.)
  • Remove any removable textiles (carpeting, throw pillows, draperies, etc.) and either wash them in detergent and the hottest water they can stand or have them professionally cleaned. Then seal whatever you can in heavy-duty plastic bags and store them in an uninfested area.
  • Empty all cabinets, dressers, night tables, and closets, and clean all clothing and other textiles as described above.
  • Thoroughly vacuum (and shampoo, if possible) all carpeting, and wash all uncarpeted floors. (Make sure to allow enough time for them to thoroughly dry before the pest management technician's arrival.)

Comprehensive Bedbug Treatment

When Pest Quest Pest Management service technicians treat your property for bedbugs, this is what we'll do:

  • Steam-cleaning mattress for bedbug controlThoroughly vacuum the infested areas with a professional pest control HEPA filter vacuum and steam clean with the Kleenjet Pro Plus 300cs commercial vapor steam cleaner. This treatment includes all potential bedbug harborage areas, such as bedding, furniture, and cracks and crevices.
  • Encapsulate your mattress and box spring with the “Protecta-A-Bed” bedbug encasement, which we provide as part of our comprehensive bedbug control program.
  • Apply a thorough application of an EPA-registered insecticide to all treatable cracks and crevices, particularly around carpet tack, walls and closets, utilizing several products including growth regulators. These products include, but are not limited to: Phantom, Suspend SC, Demand, Gentrol, Steri-Fab, Delta Dust, and Bedlam.

We provide a closed-ended six month warranty (contingent on customer preparation, cooperation and follow up). Our service includes inspection, initial vacuuming, steam cleaning, pesticide application, encapsulating products for bedding, and free callbacks within the warranty period.

We provide bedbug elimination, but continuing bedbug relief requires cooperation on the customer's part, as well as that of residents in adjoining units of multi-unit dwellings. Pest Quest Pest Management LLC does not control the environment, we can not control reintroduction, we do not control the bedding, clothes, and the clutter, we do not have products that perform similar to those of the past, and we do not control bedbugs’ behavior and physiology. Customers residing in a multiple dwellings may have limited results due to extensive bedbug infestations that may exist thru out the entire building, and landlord or managements failure to provide adequate support.

For help with bedbugs or any other pest problem, call the experts at Pest Quest Pest Management.
