Bed bugs can tarnish your reputation, especially in the era of online reviews.

Bed bug control is serious business. This isnt just because these persistent pests are top of mind (and on the top of the daily newsfeed), but because it takes serious knowledge and experience to address an infestation. As such, it is important to choose a bed bug control partner carefully if this unfortunate pest emerges at your property.

To help you find the right bed bug control provider, here are some things you should ask before you sign the contract:

Are bed bug teams comprised of specialists? We allow our technicians to specialize, says Jennifer Brumfield, Entomologist B.C.E.. This allows them to grow as experts in their field.

What does your bed bug training program look like?Western has a dedicated bed bug training program with internal certifications, Brumfield says. This matters, because bed bug control is a unique offering that differs in important ways from other pests.

How many years of experience do you have? Whenever a trend emerges, those looking to cash in emerge in kind. Make sure your bed bug control provider has real experience in the field.

Does the bed bug control program consist of techniques other than pesticides? Westerns approach to bed bug control uses all of the components of Integrated Pest Management (IPM). In addition to conventional insecticides, we employ vacuums, heat treatments, thorough inspections to identify bed bug populations, exclusion of bed bug harborage sites, and customer advice and recommendations to prevent re-introducing bed bugs back into the home or commercial building.

Bed bug control isnt something to take lightly. Infestations can be serious, and it takes persistence to address them. Take time to make the right choice, and it will pay off when the bed bugs disappear.

How Western Entomologists HelpAs entomologists, we dont fear bed bugs, but we sure have a respect for the problems these critters create remarks Win Higgins, Quality Assurance Manager for Western. Of course, bed bugs can create real problems for hotels and property-management firms that must contend not only with their own reactions, but those of their guests and clients. This being the case, fast, effective service is critical.

When we look at our bed-bug service, communication with the customer is absolutely critical. That communication includes the Western employee doing the initial inspection, the Western sales representative who will explain what the customer can expect, and the service technician who will explain the details of the treatment services, Higgins says. Most critically, we focus on communicating the right preparation techniques prior to service the biggest stumbling block to success is poor preparation.

To facilitate that process, Western developed its own, unique bed-bug service ticket, which helps to communicate to the client what was treated during our service. We try to be as proactive as possible, educating the customer each step of the way, Higgins says. Western also distributes step-by-step checklists to help clients prepare properly for bed-bug inspections, and uses highly accurate canine bed-bug detection teams to root out infestations quickly and accurately.

With bed bugs, there is one indisputable fact: theyre not going anywhere, and the bed bug problem looks to be growing worse. However, there is a lot of bed bug misinformation. If you are a property manager concerned with bed bugs on your property, it is important to know the truth which will help you make the best decisions when trying to get a bed bug infestation under control.

Western approaches bed bug control from the inside out, working with property managers and their tenants to uncover and route out these persistent invaders.
