After Treatment

Bed bugs can still be active. They can be hidden inside the walls and can return to feed within 4 to 18 days after the treatment. It is therefore essential that people sleep in the infested room to attract the bedbugs, so they can be contaminated by residual insecticide.


What not to do

Do not vacuum or clean in between treatments. This will affect the residue.
