Realizing your home has bed bugs can be a real annoyance. You likely wake up in the morning covered with red bumps on your skin, so effective treatment needs to be sought quickly. You may just need to contact a professional, but there are some steps you can take if you want a DIY bed bug treatment.
Determine the Extent of the Infestation
If you live in an apartment complex, there is a very good chance that the bed bugs are going to spread to other apartments. You should speak with other tenants and the landlord in order to inspect the building to see how far the infestation has spread. If bed bugs are in multiple apartments, then eliminating them from your own bedroom is possible by purchasing pest control supplies.
Pesticides
Most of the time, bed bugs remain localized to your house’s or apartment’s bed. You can get rid of a portion of the population by vacuuming your mattress. Make sure to vacuum every area of your bed. You can purchase pesticides to spray around your bed to try to eliminate the rest of the bugs.
Bed bugs are some of the hardest pests to get rid of. Make sure your DIY project is following all essential steps by contacting Pest Control Supply at 313-898-9104.
