Bed bug infestations can turn your peaceful home into a nightmare. These tiny pests feed on blood while you sleep, causing itchy bites and significant discomfort. This guide covers everything you need to know about professional bed bug control services in Dubai, from treatment options to preparation tips.
Understanding Bed Bug Infestations
Bed bugs are small, reddish-brown insects that hide in cracks and crevices near sleeping areas. They emerge at night to feed and can quickly spread throughout your home.
Signs of Bed Bug Infestation
- Small red, itchy bites on your skin, often in lines or clusters
- Tiny blood spots on sheets and pillowcases
- Dark fecal spots on mattresses, box springs, and bed frames
- Shed bed bug skins and eggshells
- Live bugs are visible in mattress seams, furniture joints, and cracks
- Musty, sweet odor in heavily infested areas
Professional Bed Bug Control Services
DubaiClean offers comprehensive bed bug control with a two-visit treatment plan designed to eliminate these persistent pests.
Our Two-Visit Treatment Approach
- First Visit (Main Treatment):
- Thorough inspection of the entire property
- Identification of infestation sources and hiding spots
- Application of professional-grade treatments
- Targeting of all life stages, including eggs, nymphs, and adults
- Second Visit (Follow-Up After 14 Days):
- Re-inspection of the property
- Treatment of any newly hatched bed bugs
- Assessment of treatment effectiveness
- Additional treatment if necessary
This two-visit approach is critical because bed bug eggs take 6-10 days to hatch, and they’re resistant to many treatments. The follow-up ensures complete elimination of the infestation.

Special Recommendations for Bed Bug Treatment

Understanding Why Bed Bug Control Requires Two Visits
Bed bugs are notoriously difficult to eliminate for several reasons:
Resilient Eggs
- Bed bug eggs are resistant to many pesticides
- Eggs take 6-10 days to hatch
- Newly hatched nymphs may not have been contacted by the initial treatment
Hidden Habitats
- Bed bugs can hide in tiny cracks less than 1mm wide
- They may nest in walls, behind baseboards, and under carpeting
- Some areas may be missed during initial treatment
Reproduction Cycle
- Female bed bugs lay 1-5 eggs per day
- A single surviving female can restart an infestation
- The follow-up visit targets newly hatched bed bugs before they reproduce

After successful treatment, follow these tips to prevent reinfestation:
