Bed Bug Both heat and chemical treatments can be effective against bed bugs, but they work quite differently and suit different situations.
How Heat Treatment Works
Heat treatment raises the temperature of the room high enough to kill bed bugs and eggs throughout, including in hiding spots that sprays can't always reach.
How Chemical Treatment Works
Professional-grade insecticide is applied to targeted areas — mattresses, frames, skirting boards — killing bed bugs on contact and leaving residual protection against remaining activity.
Which Is Right for You
- Heat treatment: often faster, single-visit resolution for many properties
- Chemical treatment: effective, widely used, sometimes preferred for sensitive items
- Larger or more established infestations may benefit from a combined approach
- We'll recommend the right option after assessing your property
