Bitten at night in Guiseley and not sure why? Bed bugs hide by day, so inspection of the bed and bedroom is where finding them starts.
Guiseley lies on the north-west edge of Leeds close to Yeadon and Rawdon, and its stone terraces and newer suburban estates both suit bed bugs equally well. People often suspect mosquitoes or fleas first. The clue that points to bed bugs is the pattern: bites appearing overnight, sometimes in a line, plus tiny dark spots on bedding or along mattress seams. Bed bugs hide during the day, so they are rarely seen in daylight.
We will talk you through what you have noticed, then inspect the bed, its frame and nearby furniture. If bed bugs are confirmed, treatment follows with clear preparation instructions, such as clearing floors and bagging bedding. Same-day appointments are available, and there are no call-out charges. What you pay depends on the size of the property and how many visits the problem needs.
Bed bugs are not known to spread disease in the way some pests do, but the bites can itch, and scratching can lead to skin infection. Lost sleep and stress are common effects. If you have a skin reaction that worries you, speak to a doctor or pharmacist.
Leave the bed as it is if you can, and avoid spraying shop-bought products, which can scatter bugs into other rooms. Clear floors around the bed so the technician can reach skirting and furniture. Have any suspect insects ready in a sealed bag or taped to card.

Thank you Sean and Zack for your speedy and efficient response to our wasp problem. We originally thought we had 2 wasps nests but on the end had 4. After our initial call they came out the next day and even came out a few days later when another next was discovered. Thank you, we will definitely recommend you.Mrs Carter8 August 2018
