What to Do After Bed Bug Extermination: Complete Checklist

Beat bed bugs in your Montreal home? Don’t relax yet—post-extermination care keeps them gone. In 2025, Montreal’s infestation surge (40x since 2005) means North Shore or South Shore residents need a solid plan. Here’s your complete checklist to stay bug-free.

Post-Extermination Checklist

  • Monitor Closely: Use interceptors under bed legs for 30 days.
  • Vacuum Weekly: Suck seams, floors—empty bag outside.
  • Wash Bedding: 60°C (140°F) wash and dry, monthly.
  • Seal Cracks: Caulk walls, baseboards to block entry.
  • Avoid Triggers: Inspect travel bags, curb items.
  • Follow Pro Tips: Stick to exterminator’s plan.

Long-Term Maintenance

  • Monthly Checks: Look for signs—90% prevention with diligence.
  • Encasements: Keep mattress/box spring sealed.
