Businesses
Shop, restaurant, office or apartment building in Argenteuil: timing fits around your business and the photo report can be shown during a health inspection. For regular visits, a prevention contract is priced after a first visit.
Local ground: Val-d'Oise
Val-d'Oise stretches from the fields of the Vexin to the neighbourhoods of Cergy-Pontoise and the surroundings of Roissy airport. Crop rodents, hornets along forest edges and cockroaches in apartment blocks are all found there.
In Argenteuil, this context shapes the inspection: where to look for the first signs, which entry points to check first.
Signs to look for at home
- 01Clustered or lined-up bites noticed on waking
- 02Black dots along mattress seams and labels
- 03Small blood spots on the sheets
- 04Pale shed skins in the cracks of the bed base
Recognise one of these signs? Note where you saw it: the technician will start there.
Bed bug treatment: what the technician does
Areas and situations covered
- Bedding: mattress, base, headboard
- Sofas, armchairs and cushions
- Skirting, power sockets and picture frames
- Houses and flats
- Hotels and aparthotels
- Furnished lets rented by the night
Bed bugs are not a sign of poor hygiene: they arrive in a suitcase, a second-hand piece of furniture or a bag of laundry. By day they hide in mattress seams, bed-frame joints, behind a headboard or a skirting board, and only come out at night to feed.
After a room-by-room inspection, the technician treats with very hot dry steam, which kills eggs and adults on contact, then applies an approved insecticide only in the refuges he has found. When you book you receive a preparation sheet (bedding washed at 60 °C, sealed bags), and a follow-up visit is scheduled about two weeks later to deal with any hatchlings.
Sentinel Protocol
Four stages, in this order, in Argenteuil as everywhere else
The technician treats nothing before understanding the problem, and does not leave without sealing or flagging the entry points.
Step 1
Inspect
Every bed, piece of furniture and skirting board examined by torch, hotspots and unaffected rooms identified.
Step 2
Treat
Dry steam on mattresses, bed bases and fabrics, approved insecticide in cracks and refuges only, no room-wide spraying.
Step 3
Sanitise
Full encasements where needed, instructions for laundry and luggage, unaffected rooms kept separate so the bugs don't spread there.
Step 4
Follow up
Follow-up visit built into the protocol after the hatching period, photo report and advice on staying actively vigilant.
Argenteuil: your questions before booking
Do I need to be there during the visit in Argenteuil?
Yes, you or someone you trust: the technician needs access to the rooms, cellar or premises concerned, and explains what they found before leaving.
Is the price different in Argenteuil?
No, it is the same across Île-de-France: from €213 incl. VAT for a first visit, then adjusted for floor area and number of visits. You see the total before paying.
Do you also work in Sarcelles and Garges-lès-Gonesse?
Yes. Sarcelles, Garges-lès-Gonesse and Franconville: these towns in Val-d'Oise are covered on the same terms as Argenteuil, with the same price and the same protocol.
What do I get after the treatment?
The same day, a photo report by email: signs found in Argenteuil, treatment applied, entry points sealed or still to seal, and advice to limit the risk of a return.
I live in a block of flats: are my neighbours affected?
Possibly, since bed bugs move through ducts and along skirting boards. In a co-owned building, inform the syndic, the managing agent that runs the building: inspecting neighbouring flats reduces the risk of bugs coming back from next door.
Do I have to get rid of the mattress?
Rarely. Dry steam followed by a full encasement is enough in most cases. We only suggest replacing a mattress if it is torn, because bed bugs can then hide inside, out of the treatment's reach.
