The_Monkeyboy Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 I gather these are on the increase globally in the uk for some reason. I've had a problem recently and I'm really struggling to get rid of them despite extensive steaming of all areas. Much improved but sadly it appears not totally gone. Has anyone used a professional company or over the counter pesticides with any success? Many thanks, MB Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/43144-bed-bugs/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
hpsaucey Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 been discussed a few times. Steaming wont work. Go to the professionals. Worth the money. Bed-bugs.co.uk the best! We used them. They only had to come once (you need to follow their instructions post-treatment). Worth ringing them for a chat. ETA after reading the next post - they don't use 'bombs'. Their website has a link somewhere to research showing why they're deemed to be often ineffective.

Bluerevolution Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 ask in the ironmongers on LL-many many years ago we had an issue, bought a "smoke bomb", lit it, sealed off room and hey presto-room fumigated. It does mean room is out of action for at least 24 hrs though Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/43144-bed-bugs/#findComment-738104 Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, we cannot get rid of them permenmently unless we call any professional pest control specialist. For more details check here.

JDR Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 We had professionals but that didn't work as you need to keep sleeping in the room to draw them into the poison. They are attracted out of their hiding places by imperceptible increases in CO2 levels....We did poisoning indep from a kit bought off amazon. And we kept doing it.... And in lots of rooms. Took about 6 months.... They can lie dormant for upto 2 years so you'll need prolonged vigilance. We've been free over a year so good luck, you will win Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/43144-bed-bugs/#findComment-739867 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interested as to why this didn't work for you. Worked well for us. Had an infestation in one room so treated there to lure them in. One person slept there and the rest of us in another room. So yes someone was 'bait' but only short-term as after a few days v few bugs, after about a week saw no dead ones and officially bug-free after about two weeks.
