Bedbugs in an apartment are a common phenomenon today and are quite problematic. After all, even a small number of bedbugs in a short time will turn your home into a bedbug and deprive all your household members of peace and sleep. Since they multiply at lightning speed.
It is not easy to destroy this army of bloodsuckers, since insects build their nests in hard-to-reach places and it is hardly possible for a person to find them all. To effectively combat the brown plague, a complete pest control of the premises with pesticides is required.
This can be done with the help of professional sanitary and epidemiological services, or you can treat the apartment yourself.
To achieve maximum results and to avoid repeated treatments, a number of measures must be taken in the room. We will find out how to prepare an apartment for treatment from bedbugs in this article. We will also tell you how many bugs die after treatment?
Preparation of living quarters
It is necessary to prepare an apartment for treatment with pesticides, regardless of whether a professional exterminator will work or one of the adult family members. Since exactly the effectiveness of the pest control procedure depends on the competent preparation of the living space and getting the maximum result after it.
How to prepare an apartment for pest control from bedbugs:
- carry out wet cleaning of the apartment, remove dust from surfaces, disassemble deposits of things;
- remove curtains and drapes from the eaves and wash immediately, since they can contain bedbug egg-laying;
- bed linen that cannot be sprayed (unlike pillows and mattresses) must also be washed in advance at a sufficiently high temperature (60-90 degrees);
- if there are carpets, paintings, posters, frames with photographs on the walls, they must be removed, but not removed far, as they will also be processed;
- furniture, including upholstered furniture, move away from the wallsto make free passage for the exterminator;
- take things out of the cabinets (it is advisable to wash them all, since there may be insect eggs in the clothes), the shelves inside the cabinet will also be treated with a solution;
- pack the dishes in plastic wrap and put in a separate box;
- Food (cereals, sugar, flour, salt) place at the time of pest control in the refrigerator;
- cover the electronics with plastic wrap, since the solution can damage it;
- if the apartment has an aquarium, it is better to take it out to the neighbors. If this is not possible, cover hermetically with a lid;
- remove all residents from the apartment in it, including pets;
- de-energize the wiring at the time of the work, since the sockets will be processed;
- tear off the plinth from the walls, carefully peel off the pieces of wallpaper (if any), since there may be bedbug nests behind them;
- leave free access to the water tap;
- tightly close all windows and doors;
IMPORTANT! Access to water supply must be mandatory. Water is necessary to prepare the working solution of the chemical, as well as in case of contact of poison on the skin or eyes (for rinsing)!
How to clean an apartment after treatment for bedbugs?
Cleaning the room after disinfection of bedbugs, when they die, should be started no earlier, than in 6-8 hours.
First the apartment is ventilated for 3-4 hours, leaving all the windows wide open for this time.
How to get rid of the smell after baiting bedbugs:
- the corpses of bedbugs are collected with a vacuum cleaner over the entire area, after which a bag with their remains is burned;
- with a damp sponge soaked in soapy water (laundry soap and water) thoroughly wipe all surfaces (especially kitchen countertops);
- cleaning the floorstaking care not to touch the skirting boards;
- it is better to vacuum up upholstered furniture and beds. Do not wash these items. A little insecticide should remain in their folds and crevices, which will serve to prevent the appearance of bloodsuckers. The duration of action, as a rule, is long for all chemicals (from 3 to 6 weeks). Handled pillows and blankets and soft toys should be washed;
- pictures are wiped with soapy water, carpets are vacuumed at high power both on the outside and on the seamy surface;
- it is not recommended to wash the upper part of the walls, as well as floor and ceiling skirting boards for 3 - 6 weeks, until the pests are completely destroyed;
IMPORTANT! Cleaning after disinfestation must be carried out with rubber gloves!
Preparing a room for a complete insect repellant treatment is very important. If you approach it carelessly (leave the furniture in place, do not empty the wardrobes of clothes, do not remove the carpets from the walls), access to some pest nests will be inaccessible, and therefore in a week the bugs will again celebrate housewarming in your apartment.
