Think You Have Bed Bugs? Do This First

Most Brisbane calls start with itchy bites in a line on the arms or legs, then tiny dark spots on the sheets or the mattress seam.

Keep sleeping in the same bed. Moving to the couch or a spare room spreads them through the house.

  1. 1

    Stay in your own bed

    Bed bugs follow people. Sleeping elsewhere carries them to new rooms.

  2. 2

    Do not throw out the mattress yet

    Most mattresses can be treated. Dragging an infested one through the house spreads eggs.

  3. 3

    Bag and hot-wash the linen

    Seal sheets and clothes in plastic bags, wash them hot and tumble dry on high for at least 30 minutes.

  4. 4

    Skip the bug bombs

    Foggers push bed bugs into walls and power points and rarely reach the eggs.

  5. Then call us on 07 3916 7673. Answered day and night, with same day visits on most days.

Bed Bug Signs in Brisbane Homes

Bed bugs hide by day within a couple of metres of where people sleep. These are the clues that give them away.

"Bites in a row each morning"

Small, itchy welts in lines or clusters on skin that was exposed during the night.

"Black dots along the mattress seam"

Dark spots of digested blood on seams, piping, slats and the bedhead.

"Rust-coloured marks on the sheets"

Small smears from bugs crushed while you slept.

"Tiny pale shells behind the bedhead"

Bed bugs shed their skins five times as they grow.

"We came back from a trip and it started"

Hotels, hostels and planes are where most infestations are picked up.

"A sweet, musty smell in the bedroom"

Heavy infestations give off a distinct odour.

Bed Bug Bites or Flea Bites?

Both leave itchy red marks, but the pattern and the place usually tell them apart.

One Treatment Is Never Enough

Bed bug eggs shrug off most products. That is why every Brisbane program includes a second visit once they hatch.

Local conditions

Why Bed Bugs Are Turning Up in Brisbane

Bed bug numbers have climbed across Australia since the early 2000s, and South East Queensland's busy travel and rental market keeps them moving.

Travel and holidays

Bed bugs ride home in suitcases from hotels, hostels and planes, especially over the summer holidays.

Second-hand furniture

Mattresses, bed frames and couches from marketplaces and kerbside collections often carry them.

Shared walls

In units, share houses and student housing they move between rooms through walls and power points.

Calls rise after the summer and school holidays, when travellers bring them home. Warm weather also speeds up breeding.

What is at stake

Why Bed Bugs Need a Professional Program

A few bugs can become hundreds within two months.

01

Sleepless nights

Itchy bites and the worry of being bitten affect sleep for the whole household.

02

Fast breeding

A female lays a few eggs a day, and the young can feed within days of hatching.

03

Store sprays fall short

Many bed bugs resist common insecticides, and sprays scatter them.

04

Throwing out furniture

Without a proper treatment, people end up replacing beds and couches that could have been saved.

How it works

How Our Bed Bug Treatment Works

Two visits, about two weeks apart. You get a prep sheet and the price before the first one.

  1. 1

    Inspection

    We confirm bed bugs and map where they are living.

  2. 2

    Price and prep sheet

    You get the price for both visits and a simple list of what to do before we start.

  3. 3

    First treatment

    Steam and residual treatment of mattresses, frames, furniture, skirtings and power points.

  4. 4

    Follow-up

    About two weeks later we treat again to catch newly hatched bugs.

  5. 5

    Check in

    We confirm activity has stopped and tell you how to avoid bringing them home again.

Two visits, every time

Bed bug eggs survive almost every product. The follow-up treats the young bugs that hatch after the first visit, before they can lay eggs of their own.

Pricing

How Much Does Bed Bug Treatment Cost in Brisbane?

The price covers both visits. These are the things that set it.

What sets the price

  • Number of rooms. One bedroom costs less than a whole house or several units.

  • How far they have spread. Bugs in couches, cars or other rooms add time.

  • Furniture and clutter. Busy rooms take longer to inspect and treat.

  • Home or business. Hotels, hostels and short-stay properties are priced per room or per site.

You get an upfront price once the technician has seen the job, and that is the price you pay. No hidden costs.

Questions

Bed Bug Treatment Brisbane FAQs

What people ask us most before they book.

Ask us something else

How much does bed bug treatment cost in Brisbane?

It depends on how many rooms are affected and how far the bugs have spread. The technician inspects first and gives you one price that covers both visits, with no hidden costs.

Why do I need two treatments?

Bed bug eggs survive most treatments. The follow-up, about two weeks later, catches the young bugs that hatch in between, before they can breed.

Do I need to throw out my mattress?

Usually not. Most mattresses and bed frames can be treated. We will tell you if something is too badly infested to save.

How do I prepare for the treatment?

Wash all bedding and clothes from the affected rooms on hot and dry them on high, bag them, clear the floor around the beds and keep sleeping where you normally sleep. We send a short prep sheet when you book.

How did I get bed bugs?

Most come home in luggage after a trip, or in second-hand furniture. They can also move between neighbouring units. It has nothing to do with how clean your home is.

Do you treat hotels and short-stay properties?

Yes. We treat hotel rooms, hostels and short-stay properties discreetly, with quick turnarounds so rooms can be back in use as soon as possible.
