Spotting the Signs of a Bed Bug Problem in Your Property
How do you know if you're dealing with bed bugs? These cunning pests often go unnoticed until their numbers grow. Look out for these common indicators:
- Itchy Bites: Often appearing in lines or clusters on exposed skin while you sleep, typically on arms, legs, or back. These can look like small red welts.
- Blood Spots: Tiny rust-coloured stains on your sheets, mattress, or bed frame, left behind by crushed bed bugs after feeding.
- Faecal Spots: Small, dark spots (like ink marks) on bedding, mattresses, or walls, which are bed bug droppings. These might smear if wiped with a damp cloth.
- Shed Skins: As bed bugs grow, they shed their exoskeletons. You might find these papery, translucent skins near your bed or furniture.
- Musty Odour: In severe infestations, a distinct, sweet, musty smell might be noticeable, often described as similar to coriander.
If you've spotted any of these signs, don't delay – call us for professional bed bug control.

Who We Are
Our Comprehensive Bed Bug Eradication Process
Eradicating bed bugs requires a meticulous and systematic approach, far beyond what off-the-shelf products can achieve. Our treatment process is designed to tackle the entire life cycle of these resilient pests:
- Thorough Inspection: Our BPCA-affiliated technicians will conduct a detailed site survey of your home or commercial property in Looe. We'll meticulously search for bed bug harbourage points – not just beds, but also skirting boards, plug sockets, behind wallpaper, and within furniture.
- Targeted Treatment: We apply professional-grade insecticides to all identified infestation areas. Unlike DIY sprays, our products are specifically formulated to eliminate bed bugs at all stages, from eggs and nymphs to adult bed bugs. We target those hidden cracks and crevices where they live and breed.
- Pre & Post-Treatment Advice: To ensure the best possible outcome, we provide clear, actionable advice on preparing your home for treatment and what to do afterwards. This includes guidance on laundry, vacuuming, and decluttering to maximise the treatment's effectiveness. We're here to help you understand every step.
- Follow-Up (If Needed): Bed bugs are tough, but we're tougher. We'll discuss the need for follow-up visits to ensure complete eradication, giving you peace of mind.

01822 668338Why DIY Bed Bug Control Often Falls Short
Many people try to handle a bed bug problem themselves first, but this rarely works and can often make the problem worse. Here’s why professional treatment is essential for a bed bug infestation:
- Hidden Harbours: Bed bugs are masters of hiding. They can squeeze into incredibly tight spaces, making them nearly impossible to find and treat effectively without expert knowledge and equipment.
- Insecticide Resistance: Some bed bug populations have developed resistance to common over-the-counter insecticides, meaning DIY products may have little to no effect.
- Life Cycle: To truly get rid of bed bugs, you must break their entire life cycle, including their eggs, which are highly resistant to many treatments. Our professional solutions target all life stages.
- Spread Risk: Ineffectively treated bed bugs can simply disperse to other rooms or even neighbouring properties, spreading the problem further.
- Safety: Applying pesticides incorrectly can pose health risks to residents or pets. Our RSPH-qualified team uses products safely and responsibly.
