About Bed Bugs in Skipton

Bed bug cases have risen in recent years, largely due to increased domestic and international travel. Bed bugs hitchhike in luggage, furniture and clothing, spreading between properties — especially in multi-occupancy buildings like hostels, hotels and blocks of flats.

Adult bed bugs are ~6 mm long, oval and mahogany-brown. They have no wings but strong legs that let them climb bed legs, skirting and walls. Females glue eggs in cracks close to sleeping areas: mattress seams, headboards, slats, bedside cabinets, skirting and even behind picture frames and plug sockets.

Nymphs (young bed bugs) look like mini adults and pass through several moults. Each stage requires a blood meal before it can progress, which is why a single treatment rarely achieves complete control. While adults feed frequently, they can also survive many months without a meal, so professional follow-up is essential.

Preparation Checklist (Before Treatment)

  • Bag bedding, linens and recently worn clothes; wash at 60 °C or tumble-dry hot for 30 minutes.
  • Reduce clutter; empty bedside drawers; stand mattresses and divans for access.
  • Move furniture ~30 cm from walls; lift under-bed storage where possible.
  • Do not self-spray with off-the-shelf aerosols — they can disperse bugs and hinder control.
  • Follow any additional instructions provided by your technician.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the main signs of bed bugs?
Itchy bites (often in lines), black specks on seams (faecal spots), pale shed skins, blood smears on bedding and live insects in mattress seams, headboards and furniture joints.
Can I get rid of bed bugs myself?
DIY products rarely reach eggs and deep harbourages and can spread the infestation. Professional, multi-visit programmes are the most reliable solution.
How many visits will I need?
Typically 2–3 treatments 10–14 days apart. Heavy or property-wide infestations may require additional follow-up.
Do you treat neighbouring rooms?
Yes, where risk is identified. Adjoining rooms and shared-wall areas may be inspected/treated to prevent re-infestation.
Is the treatment safe for kids and pets?
Yes when professionally applied. We’ll advise re-entry times and simple precautions (cover aquariums, remove pet bowls, ventilate rooms as directed).
How can I prevent bed bugs after treatment?
Use encasement covers on mattresses/divans, minimise bedroom clutter, inspect second-hand furniture, and isolate luggage after travel. We supply aftercare guidance.
Which areas do you cover?
Skipton and wider Yorkshire: Bradford, Wakefield, Harrogate, York and Huddersfield.
