Bed bug treatment
in Newcastle
Waking up with bites in rows? Bed bugs are notoriously hard to DIY — we treat the beds, furniture and hiding spots thoroughly so you can sleep easy.
Beat the bed bugs
Quick answer: Bed bug treatment in Newcastle with Kapow starts at a fixed $495 for a standard Newcastle home, is backed by a 12-month warranty, and can be booked online in about 60 seconds.
Bed bugs hide in mattress seams, bed frames, headboards and nearby furniture, coming out at night to feed. They spread easily on luggage, second-hand furniture and between units, and they're one of the hardest pests to clear with shop-bought products — partial treatments just scatter them.
We treat every harbourage point thoroughly and return to catch newly hatched bugs, so the infestation is properly cleared rather than briefly knocked back.
Signs of bed bugs
Caught early, they're far easier to clear.
Bites in rows
Itchy bites in lines or clusters, often on arms, shoulders and legs.
Blood spots
Small rust-coloured spots on sheets, pillowcases and the mattress.
Seam specks
Dark specks and shed skins along mattress seams, bed frames and headboards.
Musty smell
A sweet, musty odour in the bedroom from a heavier infestation.
