Lindsey Pest Services Trains Traditions House Bedbug Control

At Riverside, Lindsey President Jennifer Leggett, technicians Drew Leggett, Steve Sprague, and Harlow conducted an educational seminar and discussion with all residents on identifying bed bugs and reducing populations and how to keep from moving bed bugs between residents, rooms, etc. The session also included education on bed bug control and prevention techniques.

During the day, the team set up a heat chamber and provided instructions on how to steam furniture. The residents were to monitor the chamber throughout the day to ensure sufficient heat, many items of furniture were steamed, and the sofa was dusted.

“It was a blast working with the men that live there. They were very receptive to the education, and together we will move forward on establishing their protocols,” Leggett said.

Treatments will continue with dust on a two-week rotational basis and steaming as needed. Additionally, monitoring stations have been set up in various places, which will be checked regularly to reveal infestations before they can get out of hand.
