#1 Declutter Your Home (Top to Bottom)
Take some time to remove as much unnecessary clutter from each room in your Omaha home as possible. Be sure to pay special attention to cardboard boxes, stacks of old magazines and newspapers, paper and plastic bags. These items should be located and discarded, where possible, before our team arrives.
#2 Get All Bedding Prepared Properly
Remove all the bedding, sheets, pillows, and any other bed covering such as mattress protectors, sleeping pads, or stuffed toys. Place all of these in a sealed plastic bag so they can be washed before treatment begins. The mattress should be left empty.
#3 Remove All Extra Items
If you have any additional items stored in your bedroom on bookshelves, dressers, bedside lockers, or nightstands, you will need to clear these before our team can begin treatment of your furniture. Place these items in plastic bags and do not replace them until treatment has ceased.
#4 Clear The Walls Completely
Posters, paintings, and any other wall hangings must be removed before treatment and inspected for bed bugs before our exterminators start treatment.
#5 Ensure Correct Furniture Placement
For our exterminators and bed bug removal experts to effectively treat your home, you need to move all of your furniture at least eighteen inches from the walls. This will allow our pest removal team enough space to rotate and treat all of your furniture correctly.
#6 Remove Or Discard Coverings
Our exterminators require clients to remove all switch plate covers and outlet covers in any rooms that you suspect to be affected by bed bugs.
#7 Vacuum Thoroughly (Carpet And Hardwood)
Homeowners must vacuum thoroughly before our bed bug removal experts commencing treatment. Be sure to focus on those hard to reach places like the cracks of baseboards and in tight corners. Wait to vacuum until after you have completed all of the steps above, and be sure to discard the vacuum bag in a sealed plastic bag.
