Raises your space to 118°F+ — reaching temperatures lethal to bed bugs and eggs in a single treatment. Back home the same day.
Bed bug heat treatment — also called thermal remediation — uses industrial heating equipment to raise the temperature inside your home or unit to 118°F (48°C) or higher, and maintains that temperature for as long as the size of the space requires. At this temperature, bed bugs and their eggs are killed at every life stage.
Unlike chemical treatments, heat penetrates into wall voids, mattress interiors, furniture cushions, and every crevice where bed bugs hide. There is nowhere to hide from heat.
The result: treatment typically completed in a single visit. You leave in the morning, we treat for as long as the space requires, you return home in the evening.
One Treatment
Typically completed in a single visit — no return trips
Kills Eggs
Heat kills eggs, nymphs, and adults — no life stage is immune
Same Day Return
Back in your home 6 hours after treatment completion
Research-Backed
An evidence-supported bed bug treatment method
Bed bugs have evolved resistance to many chemical insecticides over decades. They cannot develop resistance to heat — physics is physics.
Heat reaches inside mattresses, wall voids, electronics, and furniture joints — places chemical sprays simply cannot access.
Chemical protocols typically require 2–3 visits spaced 10–14 days apart. Heat treats the entire space in a single day.
Heat treatment is more expensive upfront than chemical treatment — but for most people, the single-visit, no-return-trips, no-bagging convenience makes it worth every dollar.

Yes — this is the key advantage of heat treatment. Bed bug eggs are immune to most chemical insecticides, which is why chemical protocols require multiple visits (to treat newly hatched eggs). Heat kills bed bugs at all life stages, including eggs, when the temperature exceeds 118°F (48°C) and is sustained for sufficient time. There is no egg immunity with heat.
We raise the room temperature to approximately 120–135°F and maintain it for as long as the room size requires. The treatment is applied by trained technicians who monitor temperatures throughout. You cannot be in the space during treatment. Certain items — candles, medications, pressurized containers, live plants — must be removed beforehand. Your technician will provide a specific preparation list.
Yes — in most cases, you can return to your home 6 hours after the heating equipment is removed and the space has cooled to a comfortable temperature. Your technician will confirm the re-entry time on the day of treatment.
Key preparation steps include: remove candles, wax items, medications, aerosol cans, wine/champagne, live plants, and pets. Remove items from dryers. Open drawers and closets. Leave beds unmade (don't move mattresses). You do NOT need to bag clothing, empty shelves, or extensively disrupt your belongings — this is part of the low-prep protocol we follow.
