You’ll wake up refreshed instead of checking for bite marks. No more washing everything in hot water at 2 AM or sleeping on the couch because you’re afraid to use your bedroom.
Our bed bug control process eliminates the entire infestation, not just the bugs you can see. You get your peace of mind back, your family gets uninterrupted sleep, and your home becomes the sanctuary it should be.
Within days of treatment, you’ll notice the difference. No more mysterious bites, no more finding bugs in your mattress seams, and no more that crawling feeling every time you sit down.
We’ve protected Lake Victoria families since 2005. Roger brings 26 years of hands-on experience to every bed bug problem, and we’re one of fewer than 100 companies nationwide offering canine bed bug detection.
We keep the same technician working with you year after year because bed bug control isn’t a one-size-fits-all business. Your home is unique, your situation is specific, and we treat it that way.
Lake Victoria residents deal with bed bugs that thrive in Michigan’s humidity and temperature fluctuations. We understand these local challenges and have developed treatment approaches that work specifically in our climate conditions.
We start with our trained canine detection team. Our dogs locate live bed bugs and viable eggs with 94-98% accuracy, compared to 30-40% for visual inspections alone. This means we find the problem areas other companies miss.
Next comes the treatment phase. We use heat treatment that raises temperatures to lethal levels throughout your home, reaching into every crack, crevice, and hiding spot where bed bugs shelter. Heat penetrates furniture, mattresses, and wall voids where chemicals can’t reach.
Our follow-up ensures the job is complete. We return to verify elimination and provide prevention strategies tailored to your specific situation. You’ll know exactly what to watch for and how to prevent future infestations.

Your bed bug control service includes comprehensive canine inspection, targeted heat treatment, and follow-up verification. We don’t just treat visible areas – we eliminate bed bugs from every life stage, including eggs that other methods miss.
Lake Victoria’s proximity to travel routes and seasonal population changes create unique bed bug challenges. Visitors, college students returning home, and vacation travel all increase bed bug risks in our area. Our treatment addresses these local factors.
We include preparation guidance, treatment execution, and post-treatment monitoring. Your family receives detailed prevention education, and we provide ongoing support to ensure bed bugs don’t return. Every service comes with our satisfaction guarantee.
Trained bed bug detection dogs achieve 94-98% accuracy in finding live bed bugs and viable eggs, while human visual inspections typically achieve only 30-40% accuracy. Our canine team can inspect an entire room in minutes and detect bed bugs hiding in locations that would take hours for a technician to search manually.
Dogs smell bed bug pheromones through mattresses, inside furniture, and behind walls where visual inspection simply cannot reach. This means we locate the entire infestation on the first visit, rather than missing hidden populations that continue breeding.
The difference is crucial for effective treatment. If we miss even a small population during inspection, the infestation rebounds quickly. Our canine detection ensures we treat every affected area from day one.
Heat treatment achieves a 97% success rate compared to significantly lower rates for chemical treatments. Heat penetrates into every crack, crevice, and hiding spot, reaching temperatures lethal to bed bugs at all life stages – eggs, nymphs, and adults.
Bed bugs have developed resistance to many chemical treatments, and sprays often drive bugs deeper into hiding rather than eliminating them. Heat treatment raises the entire treatment area to 120-140°F for several hours, ensuring no bed bug can survive regardless of where they’re hiding.
Chemical treatments typically require multiple visits over weeks or months, while heat treatment usually eliminates the entire infestation in a single session. This saves you time, reduces disruption to your daily routine, and provides faster relief.
Heat treatment typically takes 4-6 hours depending on your home’s size and the extent of the infestation. The process includes preparation time, heating the affected areas to lethal temperatures, and maintaining those temperatures long enough to eliminate all bed bugs and eggs.
Preparation involves removing heat-sensitive items and ensuring proper access to all treatment areas. The actual heat treatment maintains temperatures above 120°F throughout the space, with our technicians monitoring to ensure complete coverage.
Most Lake Victoria homes can be treated in a single day, and you can return to your home the same evening. This is significantly faster than chemical treatments that often require multiple visits over several weeks.
Heat treatment is completely chemical-free and safe for your family, including children, pregnant women, and pets. Unlike pesticide applications, there are no toxic residues, no waiting periods, and no health concerns after treatment.
We do remove heat-sensitive items before treatment, including candles, vinyl records, certain electronics, and some medications. Our team provides a detailed preparation checklist and can advise you on specific items in your home.
Your furniture, mattresses, clothing, and most belongings are completely safe during heat treatment. The process actually sanitizes these items while eliminating bed bugs, and there’s no chemical odor or residue afterward.
Our canine inspection team arrives with a trained bed bug detection dog and certified handler. The dog systematically searches your home, focusing on bedrooms, living areas, and any spaces where bed bugs typically harbor.
When the dog alerts to a location, our technician performs visual confirmation and documents the extent of the infestation. This combined approach gives us the most accurate assessment of your bed bug problem and allows us to develop the most effective treatment plan.
The entire inspection usually takes 30-60 minutes depending on your home’s size. You’ll receive a detailed report of our findings and a clear explanation of the recommended treatment approach specific to your situation.
Prevention starts with understanding how bed bugs enter homes. They typically hitchhike on luggage, clothing, used furniture, and personal items. We provide specific guidance for inspecting these items before bringing them into your home.
Regular inspection of sleeping areas, especially after travel or having guests, helps catch any new introductions early. Look for small blood spots on sheets, dark spots that could be bed bug excrement, and any unusual bite patterns on family members.
We also recommend professional inspection if you live in apartments or condos, as bed bugs can travel between units. Our ongoing monitoring services help Lake Victoria residents stay bed bug-free long-term, and we’re always available for follow-up inspections if you have concerns.
