Can I use Bug bombs or Fogging?
Space treatments ("fogging" and "bug bombs") are ineffective against well-hidden bed bugs and may cause bed bugs to scatter making eradication more difficult.
How many rooms should I have to treat for complete eradication of Bed bug?
Depend on type of property, you will treat room as per. See below three type of construction viz; Ground Floor, 2 Floor and three floor property.
How many treatments should I have to do for complete eradication of Bed bug?
The first application may not give complete or immediate control; approximately 7 - 10 days post inspection, and another inspection of the premises is required to confirm that all Bed bugs were eliminated. This inspection must be as through as the preliminary inspection (described above), and if bugs are found again, control procedures must be repeated.
See below step 1 to 5 with pictures and information on how and where to use every product in your kit.
THE MORE PREPARATION THAT IS DONE, THE MORE EFFECTIVE THE TREATMENT WILL BE. LITTLE TO NO PREPARATION WILL RESULT IN POOR CONTROL RESULTS.
Successful bed bug control is thoroughly treating all of the cracks & crevices where bed bugs hide. You should be spending at least 1-2 hours inspecting and treating each infested room. See below diagram that will guide you on where to treat:

Encasements
An encasement is a fabric covering that completely encloses a mattress or box springs. It creates a barrier to prevent bed bugs from infesting or escaping mattresses or box springs. Although the encasement can become infested themselves, the infestation is easier to detect. They are useful when you want to protect a mattress you know is free of bed bugs (it has been heat treated or you have purchased a new mattress). You can also use encasements on infested mattresses and box springs trapping the bed bugs inside them and allowing you to continue to use them as long as they are not ripped or torn. Make sure you buy encasements that are specifically designed for protecting against bed bugs. You can purchase encasements from our website.

Bed bug interceptors
These are small plastic trays with an inner and outer ring. They are intended to be placed under the bed legs. Bed bugs that attempt to climb up from the floor to the bed become trapped in the outer well. Any bed bugs that try to climb down will become trapped in the center well. Bed bug interceptors not only help to reduce the number of bed bugs that can reach the bed but also acts as a monitoring tool to help determine whether bed bugs are present (if that is an issue). You can purchase Bed Bug Interceptors from our website.
