Understanding Bed Bugs: Signs You Need Professional Help
Bed bugs (Cimex lectularius) are masters of hiding, often going unnoticed until their population grows. They are flat, oval, reddish-brown insects, typically only 4-5mm long, roughly the size of an apple pip. You'll rarely see them during the day, as they emerge at night to feed on blood. Common signs of an infestation include small, itchy red bites, often in lines or clusters, appearing on exposed skin after sleeping. You might also spot tiny dark spots (faecal matter) on your mattress, bed frame, or nearby furniture, or shed skins (exoskeletons) as they grow. Don't let these pests keep you up at night; if you suspect bed bugs, contact us for a professional assessment.

Who We Are
Why DIY Bed Bug Control Often Fails
Bed bugs are notoriously resilient and incredibly difficult to eliminate without professional expertise. Over-the-counter sprays and powders simply aren't strong enough or targeted enough to penetrate their hidden harbourage points, nor do they effectively tackle all life stages, including eggs. A single missed egg can lead to a resurgence of the problem within weeks. Our RSPH Level 2 qualified team at Moorlander Pest Control uses professional-grade insecticides and proven techniques that target bed bugs at every stage of their life cycle, from eggs to nymphs and adults. We know their hiding spots, from mattress seams to skirting boards and electrical outlets, ensuring a comprehensive and effective treatment.

01822 668338Our Comprehensive Bed Bug Treatment Process
Our approach to bed bug control is meticulous and thorough. It begins with a detailed, on-site inspection of your property in Lynton, identifying the extent of the infestation and pinpointing all harborage areas. Following this, we apply a professional-grade residual insecticide to affected areas, including bed frames, mattresses (if suitable), furniture, carpets, and cracks and crevices. This treatment is designed to eliminate active bed bugs and prevent new ones from hatching. We'll provide clear, step-by-step guidance on essential pre and post-treatment preparation, like laundering bedding and decluttering, to maximise the effectiveness of our service and ensure the best possible outcome for your home or business.

01822 668338Preparing for Your Bed Bug Treatment
To ensure our bed bug treatment is as effective as possible, a little preparation from you is crucial. We’ll provide a full pre-treatment checklist, but generally, this involves stripping beds and washing all linens, clothing, and soft furnishings at a high temperature (at least 60°C). Vacuuming thoroughly and emptying the vacuum cleaner outside is also important. Our professional team will handle the chemical application, but a tidy, prepared space allows us to access all potential hiding spots. We're happy to discuss any concerns you have and provide clear advice every step of the way, ensuring you're ready for our visit.
