What is Thermal Extermination?

Thermal Extermination is the newest method of combat in the war against bed bugs. Thermal Extermination is also known as “thermal remediation” and “heat treatments.” Thermal Extermination heats the air in your home or business unit between 120 and 135 degrees Fahrenheit. This range of temperatures is known as the “Kill Zone” for bed bugs by industry professionals because constant exposure to these temperatures will eradicate bed bugs within minutes. Thermal Extermination can successfully eliminate bed bugs without the use of harsh chemicals. Many people will try insecticides and other chemical treatments before eventually relying on Thermal Extermination to rid them of the problem.

Thermal Extermination is generally the last resort method because of the cost, but treating bed bugs right the first time will ultimately save you time and money. Here’s how:

You won’t waste time and money on other chemical treatments that will not FULLY remove your pest problem. Thermal Extermination works THE FIRST TIME! Other methods simply do not eradicate bed bugs the way that a thermal treatment does.

You do not have to spend time moving furniture and bagging up objects. Thermal Extermination does require a little bit of preparation, like removing some hazardous products from the home before treatment, but you won’t have to move furniture away from walls or pack clothing into sealed bags. The thermal treatment process will take care of the movement of household objects.

What are Bed Bugs?

Bed bugs are tiny, red or brown colored insects that hide in dark crevices during the day and come out at night. Pesticides had greatly reduced bed bug infestations during the 1960s, but it has been suggested that they are coming back due to the banning of DDT (a chemical in pesticides), an increase in international travel, and the bed bugs developing resistance to pesticides.

Because bed bugs have adapted to chemical treatments, these methods of use simply will not work to get rid of the pests. Self-treatment will ultimately force bed bugs into different areas of the home, causing new infestations.

Where Would I Find Bed

Common places to find bed bugs are:

·        seams of mattresses

·        edges of carpeting

·        bed frames behind baseboards

·        window and door casings

·        picture frames

·        loosened wallpaper

·        other cracks/crevices

Bed bugs are not like ticks. They do not jump, fly, or dig, but they can enter different places by attaching themselves or their eggs to clothes, hats, shoes, suitcases, backpacks, and bedding.

Because only half of the population is allergic to bed bugs, it can be difficult to know whether or not you have an infestation problem or if a treatment was successful.
