What are Bed Bugs?
Bed bugs are pests that feed on human blood and commonly hide in beds, furniture, and other sleeping areas. These environments provide warmth, protection, and easy access to hosts, making infestations difficult to control without professional treatment.
Signs of a Bed Bug Infestation
Common signs of bed bugs include:
- Red, itchy bites or raised welts
- Reddish or dark stains on bedding or furniture
- Visible bed bugs or shed skins
If you suspect an infestation, our team can help identify the problem and recommend the best treatment solution.
Bed Bug Treatment Options
While chemical pesticides are often used to treat bed bugs, it is not the most effective treatment form. For that reason, we specialize in professional heat treatments. Which remain to be the most effective way to eliminate bed bugs and their eggs.
Our Heat Treatment Process
Bed bugs cannot survive extreme heat. We safely raise the temperature in your home or business to at least 130°F, eliminating bed bugs and eggs throughout the treated area. Benefits of heat treatment include:
- Thorough, whole-home coverage
- No harmful chemicals
- Safe for homes and businesses
- Fast treatment times (often completed in half a day)
Reliable Bed Bug Heat Treatments
Our heat treatment process is designed to eliminate bed bugs safely, thoroughly, and efficiently. We begin with the most heavily infested room and heat the home room by room until the entire space reaches a temperature lethal to bed bugs.
Most rooms take between 30 minutes and one hour to treat, depending on size. In many cases, a four-room home can be completed in about three hours.
Our propane-powered heating system remains safely outside the home while hot air is distributed inside through specialized ducting. We also place fans throughout the space to create consistent airflow and ensure heat reaches every area.
To eliminate hidden bed bugs and prevent cold spots, we move furniture, mattresses, box springs, and dressers as needed so heat can fully penetrate common hiding places.
