Real, verified feedback from people we've helped — straight from Google.
What we cover in Bilgola, and how quickly we can get there.
If you are in Bilgola or anywhere else in 2107, you are in our Northern Beaches patch, 27.2 km north-east of the CBD. We cover Bilgola on scheduled runs through the Northern Beaches, and we will give you a firm time rather than a window.
Our Bilgola work takes in the streets by Bilgola Bends Reserve and Barefoot Boulevard Shopping Village, through to Village Plaza at the other end.
Under Northern Beaches, we cover Bilgola and Bilgola Beach, Bilgola Plateau and Avalon Beach alike. The coastal damp is the part that matters: sub-floors and ground-floor wet areas rarely dry out properly.
Bilgola jobs tend to be ground-floor units with a damp sub-floor, and houses where the garage sits below the living level. Let us know which when you ring and we will plan the visit around it.
We also work the streets near Palmgrove Park and across toward Palmgrove Park - the whole of 2107 is covered.
You get a confirmed time, not a window. We plan the 2107 run the day before, and if Bilgola Beach or Bilgola Plateau is on the same round there is often an earlier slot going.
We treat the structure, not the air. Every joint, seam and void within the harbourage zone gets attention individually, which is why it takes time.
Expect two to three weeks end to end. The gap between visits is deliberate - it is timed to the hatch, not to our schedule.
The one-metre rule is a good guide: bedside tables, a chair beside the bed, the carpet edge. Beyond that is less common but not impossible in a heavy Bilgola infestation.
Each stage hides in the same places but reacts to treatment differently. That is what shapes the program.
| Stage | What it looks like | How it behaves | What it means for treatment |
|---|---|---|---|
| Egg | About 1 mm, pearly white, cemented into seams and cracks | Immobile and not feeding, shielded by the shell | Tougher than the active stages, which is why a follow-up targets the hatch |
| Young nymph | Tiny, cream-coloured, reddish after feeding | A blood meal is needed before every moult, several times over | It must cross treated ground to reach you, and that is how residual works |
| Older nymph | Noticeably bigger and darker, and easy to confuse with an adult | Hides where the adults hide, close to the bed | Turned up by checking seams, joints and screw holes in the bed frame |
| Adult | Flat, oval, rusty brown, up to about 6 mm | Feeds every few days to a week or so and can survive months without a meal | An empty room is not safe to assume clear; do not wait it out |
Healthdirect notes that bed bugs feed every 5 to 10 days but can survive for months without feeding, and that eggs are around 1 mm long.
Use a torch and a card edge. Look before you move anything, so bugs are not spread to other rooms.
Lift the corners and run along the seams, labels and piping. Look for live bugs, pale eggs and pale cast skins.
Small brown-black spots in clusters, smearing like ink when wiped, are droppings. Pinpoint blood spots on the sheets point the same way.
Look into the joints and screw holes, and behind the headboard - slatted and upholstered bases most of all.
Check the bedside drawers, the skirting boards, curtain folds, power points and any picture frame within a couple of metres.
Healthdirect puts it at about 1 in 5 people not reacting, with reactions sometimes taking up to 9 days to show. The insect itself is the proof.
Check suitcase seams and backpacks, and think about any second-hand bed or sofa that has come into the house recently.

Tell your agent or landlord in writing as soon as you find bed bugs, and do not move furniture out or throw a mattress onto the street, which spreads them. Who pays usually depends on where the infestation came from, so get advice from your agent or NSW Fair Trading. Our blog covers who pays in rentals and Airbnbs.
Speed matters here. In a block they spread through wall cavities and corridors, and an early single-unit treatment is a fraction of the cost of a building-wide one. We can work directly with the tenant and send you the report.
Bed bugs travel in guest luggage. A quick changeover check of seams and headboards catches them early - and the calendar stays blocked through treatment and follow-up.
Unpack in the laundry. Wash and tumble-dry on high heat, and go over the suitcase seams before storing the case anywhere near a bed.
Two visits, one plan: treat what is there now, then what hatches.
First we confirm it is bed bugs, going through the bed, furniture and room with a torch and mapping the spread into adjoining rooms.
Written preparation instructions for laundry, clutter and belongings, so the treatment gets to the harbourage rather than past it.
Treatment covers mattress seams, bed bases, headboards and upholstered pieces, using heat alongside suitable products.
Residual treatment is placed into skirting, carpet edges, power point surrounds, bedside furniture and curtain rails.
We return and treat again at the point eggs are hatching, which is how the survivors of visit one are caught.
You get a written summary, advice on encasements and monitoring, and what to do if you see activity again.
Good preparation is the difference between one follow-up and several. Your technician may add specific instructions.
| Approach | Strengths | Limitations |
|---|---|---|
| Hot wash and dryer | Above 45 degrees they die within the hour, and at 60 degrees or more immediately - Healthdirect's figures | Limited to washable items; no effect on the bed frame or the rest of the room |
| Professional heat | Destroys bugs and eggs wherever it reaches, leaving no residue on bedding | Offers nothing ongoing if bugs come back from an untreated area |
| Professional residual treatment | Carries on working in the cracks and crevices as nymphs hatch and travel | Requires precise placement and a follow-up visit to finish |
| Supermarket sprays and bombs | Kill bugs hit directly by the spray | Hidden bugs and eggs are untouched, and they can be driven into other rooms |
| Mattress encasements | Contain any bugs inside and simplify future checks | Useful alongside treatment, but not a treatment in themselves |

Keep sleeping in the bed. Your presence draws surviving and newly hatched bugs over the treated areas, whereas an empty room lets them sit tight.
Keep clean washing in sealed bags and take out what you need. Nothing goes back into drawers until the follow-up is done.
It is normal to get some bites early on while eggs hatch. Note when and where, because that is how we measure progress.
Two weeks on with bites rising rather than falling, or live bugs in an untreated room, means a call to 1300 313 373.
Every address in Bilgola is the same price and the same response time, whether it is a house or a sixth-floor unit.
Second-hand furniture is the other big one. A used bed base is genuinely the riskiest item anyone brings into a Bilgola home.
Movement is slow and on foot, but persistent. In a Bilgola block they use the same cavities and risers the wiring does, so adjoining lots are always worth checking.
First we find the bug itself - a lot of what looks like bed bug bites is not.
Return visits for hatching eggs come as part of the program, not as an add-on.
Quiet, professional service for rentals, short stays and accommodation.
Preparation instructions, the fixed price and the warranty terms all confirmed in writing.

We cover it on scheduled runs, so a day's notice gets you the best slot. Bilgola sits roughly 27.2 km north-east of the CBD, inside our Northern Beaches run, so we book a time and keep to it.
The sea air is the factor people miss. It keeps sub-floors and ground-floor bathrooms damp long after summer, which is enough to keep bed bugs going.
Units close to the water, houses further back, and sub-floors that hold moisture in both.
Yes. Houses, townhouses, units, strata common property, rentals and commercial sites in Bilgola 2107 are all part of what we do, and the paperwork is the kind agents accept.
Yes. The products are registered for this use and applied at label rates, and placement keeps them away from where children and animals go. Let us know at booking about pets, fish tanks or anyone with asthma and we will plan the visit around it.
Most of the time you can carry on as normal. If a particular area needs to be empty we will flag it when we arrive and it is rarely more than a couple of hours.
Allow one to two hours for a typical Bilgola property. Larger homes, or ones where the problem has spread, take longer and we will say so when we quote.
