N Fisher – Logan City PCYC
The Technician arrived at the date and time he advised. He did a thorough inspection with no impact on existing furniture & fittings. He even went into the roof cavity.

We found the service that D-Tec provided was fantastic! The Technician was very professional and thorough and most importantly arrived on time. We will definitely use D-Tec Pest Solutions for our next treatment.

A totally professional service from the first phone call to the last cockroach. D-Tec was 100% committed to their service. The technician arrived on time & explained each step of the procedure, giving us total confidence in the Company & work performed.

I have used other pest control products with little success. Our small yard had patches of fleas, and inside our home there were patches of ant nests, definitely a health risk. I phoned D-Tec Pest Solutions, a service man came the next day. D-Tec Pest Solutions product & service so far has been great.
C Henderson
We received prompt & efficient service from D-Tec with excellent results. It was refreshing to receive a follow-up phone call to enquire if we were fully satisfied. Would recommend D-Tec to others.

S Bowden - Lifestyle Carpets
Thank you to D-Tec. The quality of service you provided enabled us to sell our home – we were restricted by time with the Purchaser and you were able to complete the Barrier Treatment in required time at no additional cost. We have already told one of our friends about your service.
B. Overduin
We were extremely happy with the prompt and efficient service that your Company provided. We found the treatment very effective both inside and outside (spiders, ants, etc). Your technician was very professional and thorough in carrying out his duties and will certainly be calling on your services again this year.

Finding Bed Bugs
What to Look for
- Blood spotting on bed linen, mattresses, walls, nearby furnishings or crevices
- Dead bed bug casings
- Colonies of live bed bugs
- Live bed bugs in different life stages:
- larger adult brown bed bugs 4 – 5 mm long
- lighter coloured juvenile nymphs
- cream coloured eggs (1mm long)
- Heavy infestations are accompanied by a distinctive sickly-sweet smell
Where to Look
- Bed bugs generally feed at night and seek shelter during the day in a variety of locations, mostly close to where people sleep:
Under & around mattresses, floorboards, paintings, mirrors & carpets.
- Behind bed heads & skirting boards
- Inside bed bases
- Inside wheels of bed bases
- In cracks & crevices of walls
- Within bed frames & other furniture
- Behind loose wallpaper
- Electrical fittings & appliances
- Guide tracks of closet doors
- Housekeeping carts & rooms
- Storage rooms for mattresses & furniture
- Adjoining rooms – next to, above & below an infested room
What to do
- Isolate the room
- Do not remove anything from the room
- Have room inspected & treated
- All linen, curtains & clothing should be treated as infectious, bagged & removed from the room & hot washed separately from other washing
- After treatment, floors & upholstered furniture should be vacuumed, the vacuum contents bagged & discarded & all signs of infestation removed.
Good Housekeeping Practice
- Regular regimen of vacuuming to all areas of a room, especially around skirtings and under lounges and sofas.
- Contents of the vacuum should be sealed and discarded.
- Vacuum should be confined to one location when not in use.
- Vacuums and cleaning trolleys should be confined to one floor, or to a certain section of a floor.
- A minimum of items should be brought into a room e.g. Cleaning trolleys should be left outside, used sheet and bedding should be sealed in plastic bags before being taken outside and placed in linen hoppers.
- Any crevices on cleaning trolleys should be sealed with a caulking agent.
- Clean and used linen should be kept separated and not be transported to and from rooms via the same trolleys.
- If linen contractors are used, dirty and clean linen should not be carted in the same vehicle.
- Keep clutter in a room to a minimum.
