Apartments and units bring their own challenges with bed bugs. Walls are shared, pipes and cables run between homes, and people come and go through the same lifts, hallways and laundries. A bed bug problem in one Brisbane unit can spread next door through wall cavities, gaps around plumbing and even the space under the front door.
When you call, we ask what floor you are on, whether you rent or own, and whether neighbours have mentioned bites or bugs. The crew we book then inspects your unit, treats the beds, couches and furniture with steam and spray, and puts dust into wall gaps, power points and around pipe entries on shared walls. If you rent, the property manager may want to hear what was found, so the crew can give you a short written summary to pass on.
Units are often smaller and quicker to treat than houses, but results hold better when the whole building works together. If several units have signs, it helps for the body corporate or building manager to arrange checks of the units on either side, above and below. We are happy to take those bookings too. If your building has a shared laundry, carry bedding there in a sealed bag and bring it back the same way, straight from the dryer. It also helps to keep bags and shoes off the hallway floor until the second visit is done.
