 BED BUGS:

STANDARD PREPARATION

1.1. MANAGING YOUR CLUTTER.

In order for service to be completed at its maximum efficiency, it is highly recommended that any and all clutter be removed or appropriately relocated. This includes, but is not limited to loose articles of clothing, excessive furniture in a small space, etc.

1.2. DETAILED CLEANING.

In order for service to be completed at its maximum efficiency, we encourage vacuuming along baseboards, bedding and plush furniture, such as couches and chairs. Waste material should be bagged and sealed tightly for disposal. If drawers or cabinets are dirty, it is highly recommended to clean those surfaces.

1.3. SECURING ITEMS IN BAGS.

In order for service to be completed at its maximum efficiency, loose articles of clothing in contact with the floor or nearby dressers should be tightly secured in bags. Closets, bookshelves, dressers, night tables, linen closets or other furniture in the immediate area must be emptied, and placed in tightly sealed bags. All electronics should be secured in a similar fashion. 

1.4. BEDS AND DRAPERIES.

In order for service to be completed at its maximum efficiency, beds should be bare, and all other draperies and covers should be removed. These articles should be laundered separately, in hot water or dry cleaned under high temperature.

1.5. CLEARANCE FROM BASEBOARDS.

In order for service to be completed at its maximum efficiency, any furniture and items should be moved 12-inches away from the walls, to facilitate spraying of the baseboards.

1.6. SECURING FOOD IN SAFE SPACE.

For your own safety, store food in well-sealed, and/ or closed areas that are not designated for treatment. It is the duty of the residents after treatment, to dispose of any food that may have been left in the open during the time of treatment.

1.7. PETS, ANIMALS AND HUMANS.

No person or animal, other than the Pest Control Professional, is permitted to be in the premises or areas of treatment for a designated time period, as identified by a representative of Akim Pest Control, Inc.

 

Any additional precautions, steps or procedures may be provided at a later time by a(n) Akim Pest Control Professional for your safety. It is also important to follow the verbal and/ or written instructions provided to maintain the effectiveness of treatment.
