Bed Bugs

We take them seriously

Settled Pest and Weed Control isn't a "pay and spray" company. We run a full Integrated Pest Management approach to your bed bug problem:

Our bed bug eradication rate is 100% within our warranty period. Bed bugs are notoriously difficult to control — more difficult than termites, with the highest failure rate of any pest among other pest control companies.

About Bed Bugs

What are bed bugs?

Bed bugs are small, reddish-brown insects that feed on human blood. They're commonly found where people sleep or rest — homes, hotels, and dormitories — and are excellent hitchhikers, spreading easily via clothing, luggage or other belongings. Bites can cause itching, allergic reactions, and even psychological distress. Our experienced technicians identify and eliminate bed bug infestations using the latest techniques, so you can stop them keeping you up at night.

Signs of Bed Bugs

Wherever they turn up

Bed bugs at home or at work

They're brought in, not born there — and the longer they're left, the harder they are to shift.

At home

Bed bugs usually arrive via infested luggage or second-hand furniture, hiding in cracks around the bed, baseboards and furniture. Watch for bites, blood stains on sheets, and dark faecal spots — and act fast, since professional treatment is almost always needed to fully clear them.

At your business

Bed bugs hitchhike on customers, employees or their belongings and spread fast through a facility — risking complaints, bad reviews and even lawsuits. We offer discreet, effective treatment tailored to your business, minimising disruption to your operations.

After treatment

What to expect after treatment?

If another company suggests one treatment and "see how you go," we're glad you found us instead — bed bugs can't be controlled in a single visit. At least 2–3 visits are needed depending on severity, since chemical treatment doesn't harm the eggs, only existing bugs. With a 10–14 day incubation period, we re-treat after 14 days to catch newly hatched juveniles once the earlier adults are gone. Once we're confident eradication's achieved, we'll send you a notice to re-vacate.
