Tony was really helpful in advising us on what to use. We bought the bed bug mattress cover, bed bug killer dust, bed bug steamer and tape, and after a few days in quarantine in our backyard, all our belongings were steamed, washed or dusted.
It’s now been 6 months and we haven’t seen any bed bugs (we had an infestation on our travels so expected we had brought them home, if not actually caused the infestation ourselves by catching them on the aeroplane/backpacker hostel on the way over).
The dust was a really effective way of preventing further outbreaks, and the mattress encasement protected our expensive mattress from going the way of the one we slept on overseas (into the bin!).
