Which One Fits?
- Not sure it is bed bugs? Start with an inspection. For early cases, a K9 inspection helps.
- Older apartment building? Ask how neighboring units will be handled.
- Mobile or manufactured home? Ask whether heat can treat the whole home in one visit.
- Want bedrooms without pesticide? Ask about heat, or steam on mattresses and couches.
- Bugs everywhere, or back after treatment? Ask whether fumigation is the right step.
