Who Is The Best Bed Bug Exterminator in Toronto?
Toronto has routinely ranked high in having bed bugs infestations compared to other major cities and provinces around Canada. While one good aspect of Covid 19 has been the slowing of bed bug spread due to people staying more indoors and not gathering in large crowds, as the economy opens back up and travel bans are lifted, pest control companies are likely to see those pesky bed bug populations explode again. We pride ourselves as being the best bed bug exterminator In Toronto and in this post you’ll see why.
Growth of the bed bug population isn’t because there are dirtier people in Toronto. The whole correlation of bed bugs and am dirty home is a myth. These nasty little bugs can double in population over 16 short days. That means you need eliminate them as soon as possible. Chemical treatments can lessen the size of the infestation but rarely can hit every bed bug with the spray. Heat treatments on the other hand work by killing every bed bug all at once. This is the ideal treatment method.
What are Bed Bugs?
For those fortunate enough to have never come across bed bugs in their lives, these are small, flat-like insects that feed on human blood while you sleep. You can compare an adult bed bug to about the size of an apple seed and with a similar reddish-brown colour. They do not fly but can crawl quite fast.
Due to their compact size, they can hide pretty easily and prefer to live only around those areas where we sleep. Bed bugs are attracted to the CO2 we emit. They do not typically stay on human beings but prefer a range of about 8 feet from where you sleep. That is why you hear about hospitals, group homes, and care facilities that have to tear out entire wings of furniture whenever there is a bed bug infestation. This wouldn’t have to happen with bed bug heat treatment extermination.
The good news is these little annoyances do not spread disease, but they do bite and can leave your body feeling swollen and itchy. Think of their bites as slightly larger mosquito bites with equally puffy skin afterward. Some people are unfortunate enough to have an allergic reaction to bed bugs, and that is another reason to contact a reliable exterminator like Bed Bug Heat Relief in Toronto. You don’t want to find out your child has an allergic reaction to bed bugs after you discover an infestation.
How are Bed Bugs Typically Removed?
There are two main methods of removing bed bugs from your home or business. The first is using a heat treatment which we will go into detail below. The second, is not as effective and the more dangerous solution of using insecticides.
We mention this method because we want to help consumers avoid having chemicals spread throughout their homes. Before the modern heat treatment solution was created, pest control companies had to rely on dangerous chemical sprays and dusts to get in-between the cracks and fabrics where bed bugs like to live. While this can be effective in lessening the number of live bed bugs, it exposes your family to chemicals that get on clothes, toys, pacifiers, and other items that can easily go overlooked when you try to clean the residue from the room.
Some DIYers will try tea tree oils, peppermint, or other natural remedies that are somewhat effective at removing bed bugs, but tend to not go deep or far enough to eliminate the entire infestation. If you leave even a few bed bugs alive, they will duplicate quickly, and then you’ll be back at square one again.
How the Professionals at Bed Bug Heat Relief Work
The best and most reliable method of eradicating bed bugs from your Toronto home, business, or facility is to hire the experts at Bed Bug Heat Relief. We discreetly eliminate bed bugs from your home so you can get the relief of sleeping soundly inside your own home after one treatment.
Bed Bug Heat Treatment Extermination
The professional team at Bed Bug Heat Relief of Toronto uses a safe recirculating heat system that is fully enclosed in the treatment space. These are safe and efficient heaters with built-in CO2 sensors that shut off the whole unit in case they overheat or detect any CO2 buildup.
We bring our top-of-the-line equipment into your residence or building and use the heating system to raise the temperature of your infected space to minimum 122 degrees Fahrenheit. Depending on the size of the infestation and room dimensions, these heat treatments can take anywhere from 6 to 12 hours to complete. Once the heat treatment is over, Bed Bug Heat Relief will use fresh air fans to return your home and business to a calm room temperature filled with relaxing and inviting air so you don’t have to suffer through the heat.
Pre Treatment Bed Bug K9 Inspections
Bed Bug Heat Relief offers K9 inspections to confirm whether or not there is bed bugs in the first place. It is not always clear if the infestation is small. An easy way to detect and inspect your property for bed bugs is having specialized K9s move throughout your living space. These incredible dogs can cover a lot of ground. They are trained to the strong musty smell bed bugs give off. They have been certified to alert specifically for live bed bugs and are highly accurate in their detection capabilities. These dogs are also a lot more efficient and less expensive than paying for a team of exterminators to perform a visual inspection of lower quality.
Even if you don’t need a heat treatment but just want to make sure you haven’t been exposed to a bed bug infestation, hiring a professional K9 handler to inspect your property is a good idea. They can uncover early detections of any possible rooms or living quarters quickly and discreetly, so your life and business are not interrupted by bed bugs.
How to Prepare for A Bed Bug Heat Treatment
The key to getting your home ready for a high-quality bed bug heat treatment from the best pest control company in Toronto is to keep all the items in the unit.

We need space for the heaters and fans and require the the unit to be as tidy as possible. We will move around all your items during the heat treatment process to avoid any cold spots. Any clothes or critical items you absolutely need during the heat treatment should go through the dryer before taking them. We need everything to be appropriately treated.
We do ask you to clean up trash, spoiled food, pet waste, or any unsanitary items from your home before treatment, as these will get a lot worse afterward. You should also vacuum your entire home and vehicle before treatment and promptly throw the vacuum bag into the trash. Secure any loose papers or other small items down, and don’t leave any of these items lying out:
