All exhaust is expelled outside of your home and clean fresh hot air is pushed inside. High temp fans then circulate the hot air throughout the entire area being treated for bed bugs or other pests. We also have heaters that go inside of your home for more discreet clients, if needed.

Here are the steps typically involved in applying heat remediation for bed bugs to a home or business:

1. Inspection and assessment – A professional pest control technician will inspect the home to identify areas where bed bugs and other pests are present. They will also assess the severity of the infestation and determine the appropriate temperature and duration of treatment.

3. Treatment – First we have to separate all furniture items in your home for themselves. An example would be separating your mattress from the box springs. Then your box springs from your bed frame. Then the bed frame is pulled about a foot away from your walls, etc., etc.. After separating your furniture, our professionals will strategically set up specialized heating equipment, such as heaters and heat resistant fans, throughout the home. The equipment will be turned on, and the temperature will gradually increase until it reaches the lethal level for pests. The temperature will be maintained for specified times that vary depending upon the size of the area being treated, the amount of furniture and your belongings all come into play, to ensure that all bed bugs and their eggs are eliminated.
