SUBJECT: Guidelines and Procedures for Bed Bugs treatment.
My primary audience is adult’s family members and any one that has bed bugs infestation. Our
purpose is to give our customers a clear understanding on the mentally and physical
challenges, they are about to encounter, on ridding their home or business of the insect known
as the notorious bed bugs. Also how we treat bed bugs and to prepare themselves for
something they never had experienced before in eliminating bed bugs from their homes.
Through my previous experiences in rendering this type of service, if these instructions and
procedures are not properly carry out step by step, it could cost the pest control company and
your clients a lot of wasted time as money repeating the treatment all over again. Now the
applicator and the client are frustrated for the same problem of the bed bugs not being solved.
To eliminate this issue our company decided to make our own personnel procedures and
instructions for that pest applicator and the customers to follow.
“Bed Bugs” treatment and how we treat for” Bed Bugs” step by step Instructions
The process for completely ridding your home of bed bugs will not be an easy process and
will take dedication/ commitment from the applicator and yourself, to do their part. You the
home owner and pets and family will be displace for a solid 3-4 days or longer during this
process, this is the only way to eliminate their problem. You the customer and family members,
pets will have to find a place to live until the service is completed. Bed bugs are probably the
most complicated pest you will ever encounter at home and anywhere else . ATTN: Bed
Bugs treatment is expensive and time consuming type of treatment, it could take up to 3 to 4 or
5 hours per depending on the size of the room and areas to be service and items to be treated,
to render the proper treatment. (CAUTION) We recommend that this type of treatment be
render by a professional Pest Control Company. Bed bugs are not your everyday house hold
common pest, the process is complicated and costly and time consuming, this not a do it
yourself type of treatment. Doing it yourself, if not treated in the proper manner, could cost you
double the money and time to eliminate your bed bugs from interior perimeters. (DANGER)
TRYING TO DO THIS APPLICATION YOURSELF COULD RESULT IN MISS APPLICATION IN
CHEMICALS, PUTTING YOU AND YOUR FAMILY AND PETS AT RISK, BEING EXPOSE TO
CHEMICAL’S THAT ARE NOT MADE TO CONSUME BY HUMAN OR ANIMAL, ALONG WITH
DAMAGING SOME YOUR PERSONNEL ITEMS AND FURNITURE.

RESPONSIBILTY.

Start with taking all washable items (clothing, bedding, curtains, plush toys etc.) out of
the infested areas, wash clothes in hot water only/ then dry them for one to two hours,
and place them in plastic black bags seal up and stored away from the infested areas.
DO NOT open these bags for the next one to weeks. All of your nice dress clothes need
to be dry clean, to rid them of bed bugs and place in bags sealed, in an un-infested
area. GOOD TIP: PICK 5-6 sets of clothing to wear during the treatment period and
essentially, ‘living out of your suitcase’, or living a hotel.

Put all loose items in the room away . They need to try to keep the room as clean as
possible throughout this process, keeping in mind, anything and everything in the

dress shoes and purses will have to be placed in a large black plastic bag and sit
outside in the sun for couple days or so to kill in bed bugs that maybe hiding inside
these items. Black plastic bags generate heat from the sun. ATTN: DO USE WHITE
PLASTIC BAGS FOR NATURAL SUNLIGHT TREATMENT THEY REFLECT THE
