Otley mixes older stone buildings in the centre with newer housing around, and bed bugs can settle in either. Inspection comes first, treatment second.
Otley is a market town on the River Wharfe with the Chevin forest park above it. Walkers and visitors come and go, and holiday accommodation, spare rooms and guest beds all see changing occupants. That turnover is how bed bugs often arrive, tucked into a rucksack or a bag of outdoor kit. Older stone property in the centre offers deep cracks and thick walls, while newer housing offers neat bedrooms with the same upholstered furniture.
We begin with a detailed look at the bed, bedding and any furniture close by. Treatment is explained before it starts, including how to prepare the room and what a follow-up visit would involve. The cost depends on the property, the extent of the problem and the number of visits, and our technicians are fully insured and trained.
They can. Beds in places with frequent guests are a common source. Inspect mattress seams on arrival, keep luggage off the bed and on a rack or hard surface, and wash and heat-dry clothes when you get home.
Tell the technician about any pets when you book, including birds, fish and small animals. Advice on keeping them out of treated rooms, covering tanks and when it is fine to return is part of the visit, and it depends on the method used.
