Heat disinfects and works harder than pesticides

Heat kills bed bugs and other insects. It’s been proven in university studies since the late 1980s. We prove it every day in the field, treating homes and business of good folks like you. I want to take a moment and describe the cleansing and disinfecting power of heat, and the benefits heat provides to you and your family, your business, your friends and customers.
These additional benefits are included for free every time we do a bed bug heat treatment.
Heat solves complex problems
Let’s step away from the straight-forward world of using heat to achieve a 100% kill with bed bugs and consider the complexities of rodents.
Just about everyone knows mice and rats carry disease. Rodents are vectors for serious diseases like rat bite fever, salmonellosis, and leptospirosis. Many people believe rodent-borne diseases most commonly spread through bites from infected rodents. While this is can be a problem, the unseen danger is via contact with contaminated urine or feces. Hantavirus spreads this way.
Don’t let “out of sight” dangerously mean “out of mind”
Once the rodents you can see are gone, the health dangers remain. Rats, mice, and other rodents will scurry and climb throughout your home or business as they look for food and chew on electrical wires... urinating and defecating— and potentially spreading disease— everywhere they go. Most people I know wouldn’t want to continue exposing their friends, family, and customers to dangerous pathogens. A whole-house treatment is the best solution and most thorough solution to making your home or business safe and healthy again.
Additional benefits for bed bug treatments
All organisms have a specific thermal death point, and many of those inhabiting our structures fall within the efficacy range of our heat process. This application of heat to a structure can eradicate or reduce targeted organisms to acceptable levels without damaging the structure and its contents in the treatment. Unlike treatment with fumigation or some chemicals, the structure is available for immediate occupation by people and pets.
Our heat treatments is more than just hot air. It is “active” heating. We employ convective heating that results in decreased odors and the reduction and/or elimination of many biological concerns such as:
- dust mites and associated allergens
- insect pests including bed bugs, cockroaches, and spiders
- viruses
- bacteria
- vocs
