You’re not imagining things. Those bites are real, and they’re keeping your entire family on edge every night. When bed bugs invade your home, everything changes – your sleep, your peace of mind, your sense of safety in your own space.
Professional bed bug control in Clio, MI means you get your life back. No more checking sheets before bed. No more waking up with new bites. No more embarrassment about having friends over.
Our heat treatment technology eliminates bed bugs at every life stage, including eggs that other methods miss. You’ll sleep through the night again, knowing the problem is solved completely.
We’ve protected Clio families from bed bugs for over 20 years. We’re not the company that sends whoever’s available – you get the same experienced technician every visit, someone who knows your property and understands exactly what works.
Roger brings 26 years of pest control expertise to every job. We’re one of fewer than 100 companies in the United States offering canine bed bug detection, giving us an edge other exterminators simply don’t have.
Local families trust us because we’ve been part of this community since 2005. When your neighbors had bed bug problems, they called us. When local hotels needed discreet, effective treatment, they called us too.
We start with a thorough inspection using both visual examination and canine detection when needed. Our trained dogs can detect bed bugs in places human inspectors might miss, even in early-stage infestations before you see signs.
Heat treatment follows inspection. We raise the temperature in affected areas to lethal levels – above 120°F – which kills bed bugs, nymphs, and eggs instantly. This isn’t the same equipment other companies use. Our system penetrates deep into furniture, mattresses, and wall voids where bed bugs hide.
Chemical applications target specific areas when needed, creating barriers that prevent re-infestation. We don’t spray everything in sight. Every treatment gets customized based on your specific situation and the extent of the problem we find.

Your bed bug treatment includes comprehensive heat application, targeted chemical barriers, and follow-up inspections. We don’t consider the job finished until you’re completely satisfied and bed bug-free.
Clio’s climate creates perfect conditions for bed bugs year-round, but summer travel season brings the highest risk. Visitors returning from hotels, college students coming home, and increased movement between properties all contribute to local infestations. That’s why we focus on elimination methods that work regardless of season.
Our canine detection service gives Clio residents an advantage most areas don’t have. Dogs detect bed bugs with 97% accuracy, finding infestations weeks before human inspectors would notice signs. Early detection means faster, less expensive treatment.
Heat treatment typically takes 4-6 hours depending on the size of your home and severity of the infestation. We’ll need you and your pets to leave during treatment, but you can return the same day once temperatures normalize.
Chemical applications take 1-2 hours per room. Most homes require 2-3 visits spaced 14 days apart to catch newly hatched bed bugs before they can reproduce.
The timeline depends on how early we catch the problem. That’s why our canine detection service is so valuable – it identifies infestations weeks before you’d notice bites or see bugs, making treatment faster and more effective.
Our controlled heat treatment is safe for most furniture, clothing, and household items. We carefully monitor temperatures to stay within safe ranges for your belongings while reaching lethal levels for bed bugs.
Heat-sensitive items like candles, vinyl records, or certain plastics may need temporary removal. We’ll walk through your home before treatment and identify anything that should be relocated.
Most customers are surprised how little preparation is required. Unlike other treatment methods that force you to bag everything and throw out furniture, heat treatment lets you keep your belongings while eliminating the infestation completely.
Trained bed bug detection dogs have 97% accuracy rates compared to 30-50% for human visual inspections alone. Dogs can detect bed bugs through walls, inside furniture, and in early-stage infestations before any visible signs appear.
Our canine detection finds bed bugs 2-3 weeks earlier than traditional inspection methods. This early detection means smaller infestations, faster treatment, and significantly lower costs for homeowners.
Visual inspection misses bed bugs that haven’t started reproducing yet or are hiding in inaccessible areas. Dogs smell the pheromones bed bugs release, detecting even single bugs that human inspectors would never find during a standard examination.
Don’t panic, but act quickly. Keep your luggage in the garage or bathroom – not the bedroom. Wash all clothing in hot water immediately and dry on high heat for 40 minutes minimum.
Call us for inspection within 24-48 hours if possible. Early intervention prevents a few hitchhiking bed bugs from becoming a full infestation. What starts as 2-3 bugs can become hundreds within weeks if left untreated.
Don’t try store-bought sprays or foggers. These products scatter bed bugs throughout your home, making professional treatment more difficult and expensive. The sooner we inspect and treat, the easier and less costly elimination becomes.
Treatment costs depend on the size of your home and severity of the infestation. Heat treatment runs $1,500-$3,000 for most homes, while chemical treatments typically cost $800-$1,500 with follow-up visits included.
Early detection through canine inspection saves money by catching problems before they spread throughout your home. Treating one bedroom costs significantly less than treating an entire house after bed bugs have had months to multiply.
We offer price matching against reasonable competitor rates and provide upfront estimates with no hidden charges. Senior, veteran, and first responder discounts are available. The cost of professional treatment is far less than months of DIY attempts that don’t work.
Proper professional treatment eliminates existing bed bugs permanently. However, new bed bugs can be introduced through travel, visitors, or used furniture. That’s why we include follow-up inspections and offer prevention guidance.
Heat treatment kills 100% of bed bugs, eggs, and nymphs in treated areas during the service. Chemical treatments create residual barriers that kill bed bugs for weeks after application, preventing re-establishment from any missed bugs.
Most “re-infestations” are actually new introductions from outside sources. We teach you how to inspect hotel rooms, check used furniture, and recognize early warning signs so you can prevent future problems before they start.
