Bed bugs, scientifically known as Cimex lectularius, are small parasitic insects that are primarily active at night. Bed bugs can survive for long periods without food, making it challenging to eradicate an infestation.
These persistent insects can be effectively combated with the steam cleaner Bugsbuster.
BugsBuster utilizes a “super heater” that makes fighting bed bugs highly effective. The hot steam from the BugsBuster penetrates deeply into small crevices and cracks where bed bugs hide, such as in mattresses and furniture. They feed on human blood while sleeping, causing intense itching, allergic reactions, and secondary skin infections. Besides physical discomfort, bed bugs can also cause severe stress and economic damage. Therefore, it is crucial to eliminate adult bed bugs, nymphs, and eggs all at once. To help businesses prevent economic losses, the Italian company STI has designed the steam cleaner BugsBuster.
The rise of bed bugs in France raises questions about the situation in the Netherlands. Although bed bugs do not spread deadly diseases, their bites cause itchy welts and allergic reactions. Bed bugs easily travel by hitching rides on people. This has led to a growing problem in the Netherlands, especially in places where many people gather, such as student housing, B&Bs, hotels, and public transport. For businesses in these sectors, using the BugsBuster steam cleaner is a proven effective method to combat bed bugs and prevent further spread.
Bed bugs are masters of hiding, but there are clear signs that indicate their presence:
With the increasing bed bug infestation, the Italian company STI has designed the BugsBuster. This steam cleaner utilizes a “super heater,” allowing the steam to reach temperatures of up to 220 degrees, which is lethal for bed bugs. The BugsBuster is specially designed to penetrate deeply into fabric surfaces, effectively killing both bed bugs and their eggs, even in hard-to-reach places. Additionally, the BugsBuster comes with accessories that can be used immediately.
Since the BugsBuster steam cleaner uses only water, no harmful chemicals are dispersed, making the device particularly environmentally friendly. The dry hot steam ensures that treated surfaces do not become soaked and dry quickly, making it ideal for use in hotels, B&Bs, student housing, and public transport.
