You deserve to sleep without worrying about what’s crawling on you at night. Our bed bug control in Millington, MI eliminates infestations completely—not just temporarily.
Most homeowners try store-bought sprays first. They waste weeks fighting an enemy that’s already three steps ahead. Bed bugs hide in places you can’t reach and breed faster than you can kill them.
Professional treatment changes everything. You get your bedroom back. Your family sleeps through the night again. No more checking sheets before bed or waking up with new bite marks.
First Choice Pest Control has protected Millington families since 2005. We’re not the company that sends different technicians every time—you get the same experienced professional who knows your property.
Roger brings 26 years of pest control expertise to every job. We’re one of fewer than 100 companies in the U.S. offering canine bed bug detection, so we find infestations others miss.
Michigan’s bed bug problem has gotten worse over the past decade. Detroit ranks #3 nationally for infestations, and the problem spreads to smaller communities like Millington through travel and used furniture. We’ve seen it all and know exactly how to stop it.
First, we inspect every potential hiding spot in your home. Our canine detection service finds bed bugs in places most exterminators never check—inside electrical outlets, behind baseboards, even in picture frames.
Next comes targeted treatment. We use professional-grade heat treatment combined with EPA-approved chemicals that actually kill bed bugs and their eggs. This isn’t the stuff you buy at hardware stores that barely works.
After treatment, we monitor results and provide follow-up service if needed. Most infestations are eliminated in one visit, but we guarantee our work because we know Michigan bed bugs and how they behave.

Your bed bug treatment in Millington, MI includes complete property inspection, targeted heat treatment, chemical application where needed, and follow-up monitoring. We don’t just spray and leave.
Heat treatment reaches temperatures that kill bed bugs instantly—even the ones hiding deep in furniture and walls. Combined with residual chemical treatment, this approach eliminates entire colonies, including eggs that haven’t hatched yet.
Michigan’s climate creates perfect conditions for bed bugs to thrive year-round. Summer travel brings new infestations from hotels and visiting family. Our treatment methods work regardless of season or infestation size, and we back every job with our service guarantee.
Most bed bug infestations are eliminated within 24-48 hours of professional treatment. You’ll see dead bugs immediately after heat treatment, which kills bed bugs on contact at temperatures above 113°F.
The complete process takes 2-4 hours depending on your home’s size and infestation severity. Heat treatment works faster than chemical-only approaches because it penetrates every crack and crevice where bed bugs hide.
Some eggs might hatch 7-10 days after treatment, but our residual chemical application kills these stragglers before they can establish a new colony. That’s why we guarantee results and provide follow-up service if needed.
Bed bugs can return if you bring them home from hotels, used furniture, or visiting infested locations. However, they cannot survive in a properly treated home that maintains our residual chemical barrier.
Our treatment eliminates the existing infestation completely, including eggs. The residual chemicals we apply continue working for weeks, killing any new bed bugs before they can establish a colony.
Most “return” cases are actually new infestations from external sources. We teach you how to inspect for bed bugs when traveling and what to avoid when buying used furniture. Prevention education is part of every service call.
Remove all clothing and linens from bedrooms and wash everything in hot water (120°F minimum). Dry on high heat for 30 minutes—heat kills bed bugs and eggs better than washing alone.
Clear clutter from floors and surfaces so we can access all potential hiding spots. Remove pets and family members during treatment, typically for 4-6 hours depending on the method used.
Don’t move furniture or belongings to other rooms before we arrive. This spreads bed bugs throughout your house and makes treatment much more difficult. We’ll guide you through specific preparation steps when we schedule your appointment.
Bed bug treatment costs vary based on infestation size, home layout, and treatment method required. Most residential treatments in Millington range from $800-2,500 for complete elimination.
Heat treatment typically costs more upfront but often requires fewer follow-up visits than chemical-only approaches. We provide detailed estimates after inspecting your specific situation—no surprises or hidden fees.
Consider the total cost of doing nothing: replacing mattresses, furniture, lost sleep, and potential health impacts from stress and scratching infected bites. Professional treatment is almost always less expensive than fighting bed bugs yourself for months.
All chemicals we use are EPA-registered and approved for residential bed bug control. We follow strict application guidelines to ensure safety while maximizing effectiveness against bed bugs.
You’ll need to stay out of treated areas for 4-6 hours after application, then return once surfaces are dry. Pets should also remain outside during this period. We use the minimum amount necessary to eliminate the infestation.
Heat treatment requires no chemicals in many cases, making it the safest option for families with young children, pregnant women, or chemical sensitivities. We’ll discuss the best approach for your specific situation during inspection.
Bed bugs have developed resistance to many over-the-counter insecticides, making DIY treatments largely ineffective. They also hide in places homeowners can’t reach or treat properly—inside walls, electrical outlets, and furniture joints.
Female bed bugs lay 3-5 eggs daily in hidden locations. Store-bought sprays might kill visible adults but miss the eggs and hidden populations. Within weeks, you’re back to square one with a larger infestation.
Professional equipment reaches temperatures and applies chemicals that actually kill bed bugs and their eggs. We know where they hide, how they behave, and which treatment methods work in Michigan’s climate conditions. Experience matters when fighting these resilient pests.
