What sets apart bed bug heat treatment?
Bed bugs excel at hitchhiking, frequently traveling on planes, trains, and the attire of tourists. This is particularly true for bustling cities like London and charming coastal resorts around Kent, which are prime destinations for bed bugs.
​
Successfully eradicating bed bugs hinges on early detection, meticulous preparation, and the application of appropriate treatment methods. If you uncover these blood-sucking pests in your home or business, our space heat treatment emerges as the optimal solution.
​
Heat proves to be a formidable method of attack, considering the resilience of bed bugs. Traditionally, pesticides were the go-to for bed bug control, but the growing awareness of environmental and health implications has shifted the focus. Moreover, many pesticides have lost effectiveness due to insect resistance.
​
Our specialized space heaters are programmed to reach temperatures up to 56°C, ensuring the elimination of bed bug larvae, nymphs, eggs, and adults in a single, comprehensive treatment.
How does bed bug heat treatment work?
Our bed bug treatment operates by elevating the temperature across all affected areas to an extreme level, swiftly desiccating the bugs' bodies and causing instant mortality.
​
Ensuring uniform lethal temperatures in every nook and cranny is crucial. Therefore, our heat treatment machines feature sensors to monitor temperatures comprehensively. In case of cold spots, we employ a bed bug superheated steamer to reach the required temperature.
​
One of the significant advantages of using heat for bed bug eradication, as opposed to pesticides, is its ability to exterminate bugs at every life stage—eggs, nymphs, and adults. Additionally, it targets all areas of the room, leaving no safe haven for bed bugs.
Preparing for bed bug heat treatment
While our space heaters are highly effective and relatively non-invasive compared to other pest control methods, some preparation is necessary on your part.
​
Ensure the room is decluttered, removing perishables like food and plants during the heating process. Items prone to combustion or explosion, such as aerosols, should be taken out before the treatment begins. Exercise caution when removing potentially infested items to avoid contaminating your clothing.
​
After the heat treatment, wait for a safe duration before re-entering the room to allow the temperature to drop. Unlike harsh chemicals and pesticides, heat treatment allows rooms to be back in use immediately, without discarding any furnishings.
