Spread of bedbugs in Montreal
Over the past few years, bedbugs have often made headlines in Montreal. When we notice his presence in our home, it is hardly a cakewalk! Who are we talking about? “Famous”, in spite of themselves, bedbugs!
First of all, it is important to know that, just like cockroaches, bedbugs spread quickly. Moreover, they can even move from one house to another by the clothing of it's visitors.
In Montreal apartments, they can easily cross from one apartment to another, using the pipes, among other things. In addition, these insects are difficult to detect since they are rather active at night. During the day, they hide very close to the seams of the mattress. Also, since the eggs are very small, it is absolutely impossible to see them at a glance. Then, the female lays about 2 to 4 eggs per day. Thus, this greatly contributes to them spreading very quickly. That's why it's crucial to do business with a certified exterminator in these kinds of situations.
The treatment done by yourself, not advised!
To say goodbye to your bed bug problem, do not attempt to handle bed bug treatment on your own. Whether you try to protect your mattress with a cover or spray an anti-pesticide, it will not be enough. In fact, the sprayed product may even make the bug resistant to treatment. Therefore, only one option is super efficient, to contact a certified exterminator who will do the work.
In addition, the exterminator must take care to do absolutely every corner of your home and above all not to forget anything. Bedbugs can live quite a long time, between 6 months and 2 years. So, you have to be sure that you don't have to start over after a while.
The best extermination company do not hesitate to contact them if you have a pest problem.

Do you think you have an infestation?
If you think you have an infestation, your priority should be extermination.
Many people take the following approach: they hire a reliable exterminator who guarantees results. It is neither easy nor advisable to use pesticides on your own. Instead, hire a professional who will do the following:
- A thorough examination of your home, of all the little corners where the bedbugs could be present, inside the mattress, in your closet as well as the cracks in the wooden furniture.
- Special products are used for pest control. Another thing to note is that there are some forms of pests that do not react to insecticides at all. Sometimes this happens because people use products to exterminate bed bugs without considering appropriate treatment. As a result, pests develop resistance to these products.
- The bed bug treatment must be repeated to achieve a complete and successful extermination because the treatments do not always succeed in eliminating the eggs in your home.
