Our Bed Bug Treatment Process

01

Inspection & Confirmation

We confirm bed bug presence, assess the extent of infestation, and identify all infested areas.

02

Treatment Plan

We recommend heat treatment (fastest, most effective) or a chemical treatment program based on your situation and budget.

03

Treatment

Heat treatment raises room temperature to 120–140°F for several hours, killing all life stages. Chemical treatments require multiple visits over 2–4 weeks.

04

Follow-Up

Post-treatment inspection confirms elimination. Chemical treatments require 2–3 follow-up visits to address newly hatched eggs.

Bed Bug Treatment FAQ for St. Louis Homeowners

How often should St. Louis homeowners get bed bug treatment?
Given St. Louis's severe tornado and hail risk in spring and fall along i-44 and i-70 corridors, most homeowners benefit from bed bug treatment at least once a year. Ice storm branch and gutter damage (Dec–Feb) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in St. Louis most need bed bug treatment?
Red brick bungalows and two-stories throughout St. Louis County and Victorian homes in Lafayette Square and Compton Heights are the most common home types in St. Louis and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
Can I treat bed bugs myself?
DIY treatments rarely work for established infestations. Bed bugs hide in crevices, electrical outlets, and wall voids that consumer products can't reach. Partial treatment drives bugs deeper into hiding and makes professional treatment harder.
How long does bed bug heat treatment take?
A typical heat treatment takes 6–8 hours for the affected unit. All your belongings stay in place — no bagging required. You can return home same day once the space cools.
How did I get bed bugs?
Bed bugs travel on luggage, clothing, used furniture, and move through walls in multi-unit housing. They aren't a sign of poor hygiene — they occur in 5-star hotels as readily as anywhere else.
How much does bed bug treatment cost?
Heat treatment runs $1,000–$3,000 for a typical apartment or bedroom area. Chemical programs cost $300–$600 with multiple visits. Heat treatment's single-treatment completion often makes it more cost-effective overall.
