Bed Bugs control in the South Bay

What bed bugs look like

Adult bed bugs are flat, oval, and about the size and color of an apple seed — reddish-brown, roughly 1/4 inch long. After feeding they swell and darken. Eggs and young nymphs are tiny and pale, which is part of why infestations go unnoticed early on.

Signs of an infestation

• ✔Small itchy bites, often in lines or clusters, on skin exposed while sleeping
• ✔Tiny rust- or blood-colored spots on sheets and mattress seams
• ✔Dark specks (droppings) along seams, box springs, and headboards
• ✔A sweet, musty odor in heavy infestations

How we treat bed bugs

Bed bugs are one of the hardest pests to eliminate, so we use a thorough, verify-and-repeat approach. Depending on the situation that means targeted chemical treatment of harborage areas, whole-room heat treatment that raises temperatures to lethal levels, or a combination. Because eggs can survive a single pass, follow-up inspections are built into the plan to confirm the infestation is fully gone.

Bed Bugs control FAQs

How much does bed bug treatment cost?

Bed bug treatment typically runs $300–$600 per room for targeted chemical service, while whole-home heat treatment is generally $1,500–$4,000. The right approach depends on how far the infestation has spread.

Does heat treatment kill bed bugs in one visit?

Heat treatment can eliminate bed bugs and their eggs in a single properly executed session by raising the whole room above the lethal threshold. We still schedule a follow-up inspection to verify success, since re-introduction and hidden harborage are always possible.

How should I prepare for a bed bug treatment?

We'll give you a specific prep checklist when you book — typically laundering and bagging bedding and clothing and clearing clutter so we can reach harborage areas. Proper prep is a big factor in getting complete results the first time.
