Bed Bug Control

Adult Bed Bugs have a flattened appearance with an oval body, reddish brown colour, females 4mm-8mm, males slightly smaller. Small wing buds, well developed antennae and compound eyes, clawed legs for climbing. They turn purple after feeding on blood. Bed Bug faeces or droppings can stain wood and fabric with black marks.

Bed Bugs lay their eggs in cracks and crevices. An adult female bed bug can lay up to 5 eggs per day. The eggs are approximately 1mm in length and oval shaped. The nymphs hatch after 8 to 11 days at average room temperature.

The bed bugs reproductive rate is increased due to factors such as availability of food and increased temperatures.

Evidence of bed bugs to look out for:

Live Bed Bugs, Nymphs and Eggs,
Bites on the human body.
Black dot like marks/stains on mattress’s, bedding and bed frames/bases.

Bed Bugs live in bedroom furniture, behind pictures, in electrical switches, behind skirting boards. Bed Bugs can unknowingly be transported in suitcases, backpacks, furniture and mattresses as they like to hide in dark cracks. They come out at night and feed on human blood. On average a bed bug feeds every 7 days. Some people can have an increased allergic reaction to bed bug bites, with red swollen bites and other people don’t even notice they have been bitten.

An integrated treatment will be applied to control your bed bug infestation. Particular attention is paid to the bed and the area immediately around the bed, in cracks, crevices, bed frames, carpet-wall junctions, curtain surrounds, and bed boards.

Preparing a room for a bed bug treatment:

Remove sheets, pillows and duvets from the bed. Sealing them in thick black or clear plastic bags.
Remove clothing and items (including shoes, handbags etc.) from under bed storage and wardrobes. Sealing them in thick black or clear plastic bags.
Unplug any electrical items near the bed area such as lamps, clocks and radios.

It is only necessary to dispose of the mattress due to a very heavy infestation. Furniture may also need to be moved away from walls. It is important not to move bedding, objects and furniture out of the room without sealing them in plastic, otherwise other parts of the property may be infested.

After the treatment:

Wash all bedding, including sheets, pillows and cases, duvets and covers.

Bedbug treatments require a trained and experienced technician to use their expertise to resolve an infestation using an integrated approach of inspection, treatment and follow up.

The Pest Control Specialists

Pests such as Mice, Rats and Cockroaches can spread diseases by carrying harmful pathogens. Pests like wasps, bedbugs and fleas frequently cause stress and allergies by their presence in the human environment. Squirrels, Rats and Mice can damage properties by gnawing through timbers and wires with their strong rodent teeth. Mice can contaminate working surfaces and food stuffs. Carpet pests including The Common Clothes Moth can cause expensive damage to fabrics.

We will prevent, control and solve your pest control emergency. Whether it’s a Squirrel in the attic in Sheen, Wasp nest removal in Wimbledon, a Mouse infestation in Mortlake or a Rat Problem in Richmond, we’ll make sure we leave your home a pest free zone.

Very good service. They know what they are doing and they do it well. For us it was dealing with wasps. I would definitely use them again if we had a similar problem.

I discovered a wasp nest on Friday evening, contacted Indigo at the weekend - received a prompt reply and by Tuesday afternoon (my choice of slot) everything had been sorted. The technician was on time, polite, friendly, informative and extremely efficient. He made sure that we (and our cat) were safe and left the site tidier than it was when he arrived.Extremely impressed and will definitely use Indigo again.

I had a rodent in the house for 5 days. I called a pest control company, they said they would attend the property, I waited the entire day to be let down at the last minute. When I called indigo they were very professional, arrived when they said they would. The technician Christian was so professional and efficient. By the end of the day that he attended the property the problem was solved. Thank you so much Christian and indigo. I highly recommend

Had a rat fall into my enclosed basement garden and get trapped. Phoned them up after googling, the call handler explained the process and quoted a fair price. The guy turned up an hour and a half later and removed the rat efficiently and quickly. Very professional, friendly, honest and helpful. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent, friendly professional company. Christian surveyed the problem, organised his equipment and the nasty little wasp nest was history. If it’s a wasp nest you need removing then these are the guys to contact!

Imagine my horror when I found mouse droppings in my kitchen. I am so glad I used Indigo as they are wonderful. This simply super young man called Luke visited. He knew exactly what to do, laid poison and three visits later the mice have gone. He was able to work out where they were coming in and blocked up their entrance. Luke was fantastic and his mother should be very proud of him. A lovely person and in my eyes his employer should be glad to have him representing his company. I can not recommend this company more highly.

From Vanessa, whom I initially dealt with on the phone, to Louis who came to the house and banished all traces of the wasps; I was so impressed with their professionalism, their willingness to explain their processes and their knowledge of all things wasp! Delighted I found and used this company and will definitely turn to them again if I need any pests removed.

Christian Stockmann

Very quick and efficient service, highly recommended. Having spoken to Alex and explained a possible rat concern, he was able to very quickly send one of his team over the same day to check things out. The technician who arrived, Christian, was incredibly helpful, friendly and knowledgeable and sorted the problem in no time. He phoned when on route so we were able to get to the property in time and was geared up with appropriate PPE for the current circumstances which we were very pleased to see. Alex also phoned later in the afternoon to follow up with some additional recommendations to make the setting more secure. Overall, very pleased with the service and would highly recommend

I had a urgent problem right before Christmas that caused me so much stress and upset and these guys were recommended to me and I can see why ... how detailed they are .. how they investigate properly and try to fix the problem for you as soon as they can because they truly cared about fixing the problem and it not ruining Christmas and New yr for me and my children. The pest officer who came to my house was lovely and polite , he didn't rush he was very thorough and gave detailed reports and explained everything to me on his findings and how the problem will be resolved. The manager was the same on the phone , he was lovely and very professional and he has a brilliant team , I can't thank them enough. If I ever got the same problem I would use this company every time. They dealt with my problem fast.

I requested a quote for fumigation of our rental property at the end of our lease. Alex responded almost immediately and informed me of a change in the law, making it illegal for landlords to request fumigation without evidence of infestation. We very much appreciated the information and his advice. Alex arranged for a visual inspection to be carried out, which confirmed no infestation - thereby saving us time and money. I highly recommend the company for their great communication and quick response.

We had a problem with rodents tunnelling in the front garden, so we contacted Indigo because they were local, members of a trade association and had fantastic reviews. An appointment for inspection was made speedily and Christian the pest technician turned up within the given time window. He was very friendly and efficient and in a very short time discovered how the rodents were gaining access and quickly found a solution. Simple preventative measures were put in place the same day which was a huge relief. The charges were also reasonable and the whole experience was so reassuring. Thank you
