Why Use Heat?
Heat treatments are a popular, environmentally friendly alternative to using chemicals to eliminate bed bug infestations. There is abundant scientific evidence that bed bugs are becoming increasingly resistant to chemicals but are physically not capable of surviving elevated ambient (above 122°F) temperatures. Heat treatments are the only way to ensure all stages of bed bug life (eggs, nymphs and adults) have been killed in a single treatment.
Exterminate Bed Bugs With Heat in Burlington
Bed bug heat treatments are proven to be the best way to kill bed bugs in your home or space. Conventional pest control methods for bed bugs such as chemical treatments have been proven to be ineffective and don’t eliminate all of the bed bugs in an infestation, which is critical. It’s unlikely for sprays to hit every bed bug because they hide in the tightest of spaces. We always hear of clients trying chemical treatments first before coming to us with a nightmare of a story. Multiple spray treatments end up costing more than one heat treatment, still without the guarantee of killing every bug.
Heat treatments seem like a higher upfront cost but is actually cheaper in the long run to eliminate every bed bug. This method is eco-friendly and work by raising the ambient temperature of the affected area to lethal levels for bed bugs. Heat treatments eliminate bed bugs at every stage of their life cycle, unlike other extermination methods. This does require a few preparation steps but almost always eliminates the entire bed bug infestation within one session. If for some reason this is not the case we offer warranty and will come back free of charge.
