Bed Bug Treatment Fenton

Find Them All, Kill Them All, Prove They're Gone

Our certified detection dog inspects every room, finding live bed bugs and eggs with 90% accuracy compared to 30% for visual inspection alone. The dog alerts to exact locations—not general areas—so we know precisely where to focus treatment.

Heat treatment brings your entire home to 145°F, a temperature that kills bed bugs and eggs instantly. No chemicals chase them into new hiding spots. No wondering if we missed a room. The heat penetrates furniture, mattresses, and wall cracks where sprays can’t reach.

After treatment, our dog verifies complete elimination by confirming no live bed bug scent remains anywhere in your home. You get written documentation that the job is done right. Most customers are bed bug-free within 24 hours.

How do I know if your dog actually found all the bed bugs?

Our detection dogs are certified and trained to alert only to live bed bugs and viable eggs, not old evidence or dead bugs. When the dog sits and stares at a specific spot, that’s where live bed bugs are hiding right now. After heat treatment, the same dog re-inspects your entire home. If any live bed bugs survived, the dog will alert to those locations and we’ll address them immediately. No alert means no live bed bugs remain anywhere in your house. This verification process is included in your service because we want proof the job is complete. You’re not taking our word for it—you’re getting independent confirmation from a dog whose nose doesn’t lie about what’s actually there.

Why should I pay more for heat treatment instead of just spraying?

Chemical sprays often make bed bug problems worse by scattering them to new hiding spots throughout your home. Bed bugs sense the chemicals and move deeper into walls, furniture, and areas where future treatments can’t reach them effectively. Heat treatment costs more upfront but typically solves the problem in one application. Chemical treatments often require 3-4 visits over several weeks, during which time bed bugs continue reproducing. When you add up multiple chemical treatments plus the time off work for repeated appointments, heat treatment often costs less overall. Most importantly, heat treatment gives you immediate relief. You sleep peacefully the first night instead of wondering for weeks whether the chemicals actually worked or just moved the problem somewhere else in your house.

What happens if I see bed bugs after your heat treatment?

We warranty our heat treatment work, so if you see any bed bug activity after treatment, we return at no charge to address it. However, this rarely happens because heat treatment typically eliminates the entire population in one application. Our post-treatment canine verification ensures complete elimination before we leave your property. The dog’s nose confirms no live bed bugs remain anywhere in your home. We provide written documentation of this verification for your records. If bed bugs appear later, they’re usually reintroduced from outside sources like hotels, used furniture, or visitors. We help you identify the source and prevent reintroduction, plus we address any new activity under our warranty coverage.

How long will I have to stay out of my house during treatment?

Most residential heat treatments take 6-8 hours including setup, treatment, and cool-down time. You’ll need to leave during active treatment, but you can return the same day once temperatures return to normal. We schedule around your work day when possible, so you’re not losing vacation time for pest control appointments. Many customers leave for work in the morning and return to a bed bug-free home that evening. The single day of inconvenience eliminates weeks of disruption from multiple chemical treatments. You’re not dealing with repeated appointments, chemical odors, or wondering when your home will finally be safe for your family.

Do I need to throw away my mattress and furniture?

No, heat treatment eliminates bed bugs in your existing mattresses and furniture without damage. The controlled heat penetrates deep enough to kill bed bugs and eggs while staying below temperatures that would harm your belongings. This saves you thousands of dollars in replacement costs compared to infestations where people panic and throw everything away. Your mattresses, couches, and wooden furniture are safe during heat treatment—we protect heat-sensitive items beforehand. Many Fenton families have saved expensive bedroom sets and family heirloom furniture through heat treatment. You keep your belongings and eliminate the bed bugs at the same time, which isn’t possible with most chemical treatments.

How do I prevent bed bugs from coming back after treatment?

Prevention starts with understanding how bed bugs typically enter homes: through luggage from hotels, used furniture purchases, visitors’ belongings, or neighboring apartments in multi-unit buildings. We provide specific guidance based on your situation and lifestyle. Simple precautions like inspecting hotel rooms before settling in, checking used furniture carefully before bringing it home, and using protective mattress encasements can prevent most reinfestations. We show you exactly what to look for and where bed bugs typically hide. Our 20 years of experience means we know the most common reintroduction sources in the Fenton area. We share this knowledge so you can protect your investment in professional treatment and keep your home bed bug-free long-term.
