Cleaning after disinfection from bedbugs

With the invasion bed bugs faced by many owners of private houses and apartments in multi-storey buildings. Their presence does not mean sloppy owners, they appear everywhere where there is a source of food - people. Parasites are found when they have reached significant numbers. First man tries poison bugs yourself, but a series of unsuccessful attempts compels him to contact the sanitary service and conduct professional processing premises. The specialist processes rooms, upholstered furniture, cabinets, baseboards, ventilation grilles, and other inaccessible places with a chemical preparation. At the end of the procedure, it is important to have a minimal idea of ​​how and how to wash the apartment after treatment, because the effectiveness of the work depends on this.

What is pest control and what is it

Pest control - a type of disinfection of a room when insects are destroyed using chemical, biological agents, hot water with steam.

There are two ways to disinfect bugs:

  1. Preventative. The goal is to prevent the appearance of parasites. Takes less time and costs less.
  2. Fighter or current. Task - killing bugs and other existing pests in the house. Before processing, places of accumulation and the degree of contamination of housing are identified.

After the bugs are hunted, particles of chemicals remain on the walls, furniture, floor, and all surfaces, so it will take a lot of energy to clean up the room. Regardless of the type of work performed, chemicals are used, therefore, cleaning after disinfection from bedbugs is mandatory, the main thing is to follow safety measures and strictly adhere to the advice of a specialist.

Why bugs do not die right away

Many believe that after the destruction of bugs, insects instantly disappear and when they see them again, they begin to call the sanitary service and demand explanations. How long do bedbugs die after disinfestation?, depends on the method chosen and the insecticide. Today they use disinfecting solutions of the third and fourth class, which are classified as low-hazard substances, so that all family members can return to the apartment in a few hours and not worry that their health will be harmed.

The solution, applied to the surface, continues to work from 3 to 4 weeks. During this time, new larvae from deferred eggs. The insecticidal film has a contact effect, therefore, in contact with the surface, blocking of nerve impulses begins, and then the death of the bug.

How to clean up the apartment

The key to the absence of bed bugs in the future is the observance of simple rules at the end of pest control. After treatment, they return home mainly after 3-8 hours.

Chemicals are not dangerous to humans and animals, but the unpleasant odor remains. If you are indoors immediately after work is completed, poisoning may occur. Therefore, it is necessary to ventilate the apartment for half an hour and begin cleaning. You can restrict yourself to ordinary cleaning and washing products.

Cleaning

How to clean the apartment:

  • wash dishes with detergent;
  • with soapy water to wash the surfaces with which daily contact occurs: tables, door handles, chairs;
  • wash bedding in a typewriter at a temperature of 60 degrees;
  • three days later vacuum the upholstered furniture, carpets, walls, baseboards, if the bag is disposable, it is better to throw it away, if not, then it is good to shake it out and wash it in hot water.

Many ask if it is necessary to wash the apartment after treatment. Specialists allow washing floors only after seven days. General cleaning is carried out a month later, washing baseboards, walls and furniture. The effectiveness of treatment from bugs will depend on how long the chemical composition will be on the surfaces.

Before leaving the specialist, you should ask when, how and with what to clean the apartment. Indeed, depending on what means are used, the sequence of cleaning may differ.

Feedback

Bedbugs appeared in the apartment, called a specialist to process everything, because I do not believe in the effectiveness of ordinary chemicalssold in a store. Disinfection cost quite acceptable. Processing was performed using cold fog. Before leaving, the pest told in detail when to clean the apartment so as not to wash the poison from the walls. Allowed to wash everything only after a month. Processing helped, no longer met insects.
