Bedbug Control
Are you constantly waking up with itchy bites or spotting tiny bloodstains on your bedsheets? You might be dealing with a bedbug infestation. At Rafiki Pest Control Rwanda, we understand how uncomfortable and frustrating this issue can be. Our comprehensive bedbug control services are designed to eliminate the problem from the source and ensure your peace of mind, whether it’s in your home, guesthouse, lodge, or commercial property.
What Are Bedbugs?
Bedbugs are small, reddish-brown, oval-shaped insects that feed exclusively on blood. They’re most active at night and hide in cracks, crevices, mattresses, bed frames, furniture joints, and baseboards during the day. While bedbugs don’t transmit diseases, their bites can cause severe itching, allergic reactions, and psychological discomfort, especially in children and the elderly.
Why Bedbug Control Is Important
Ignoring bedbug infestations only allows them to spread. Female bedbugs lay hundreds of eggs during their lifetime, and the infestation can quickly grow beyond control. In addition to health effects, they damage your reputation if you run a hotel, rental unit, or Airbnb. Guests who spot a bedbug are unlikely to return and may leave negative reviews. That’s why timely professional intervention is key.
Signs of Bedbug Infestation
You may have a bedbug problem if you notice:
- Small red bites on your skin, especially after waking up
- Tiny blood stains or dark spots on bedsheets and mattresses
- Musty odors near sleeping areas
- Shed skins or eggshells in mattress seams, furniture cracks, or wall joints
- Live bedbugs crawling on bed frames, upholstery, or walls
If you notice any of these signs, it’s time to call Rafiki Pest Control Rwanda for a thorough inspection.
Our Bedbug Control Process
We don’t just spray and leave. At Rafiki Pest Control Rwanda, we use a combination of modern inspection tools, customized treatment plans, and follow-up visits to ensure every bedbug and egg is eliminated. Here’s what our process looks like:
1. Thorough Inspection
Our trained technicians begin with a detailed assessment of the affected space, including beds, walls, furniture, carpets, and baseboards. We identify the hotspots, locate the nests, and determine the infestation level before recommending a treatment plan.
2. Preparation and Guidance
Before treatment, we guide you on how to prepare your space:
- Remove and wash all bedding at high temperatures
- Declutter affected rooms
- Vacuum thoroughly, especially around cracks and crevices
- Move furniture away from walls
- Our team can help with preparation if needed.
3. Chemical Treatment
We use safe, low-odor insecticides that are effective against bedbugs at all stages of life. The insecticides are applied using targeted sprays and residual dust in strategic hiding spots bed frames, wall joints, baseboards, furniture, and mattress seams.
We also offer advanced options like:
- Insect growth regulators (IGRs) to stop the reproduction cycle
- Steam treatments for delicate surfaces
All products used are approved and safe for both humans and pets once dry.
