5 Reasons Heat is More Effective than Chemical

  1. Bed bugs have become more resistant to chemicals – some
    research shows that certain bed bugs can survive a dose of
    chemicals that is 1,000 times higher than what was lethal
    just 10 years ago.
  2. Chemicals can’t always reach all bed bugs – bed bugs like
    to hide in areas that may be impossible to spray with
    chemicals. From cracks in your bed to your walls,
    baseboards, electrical outlets, and furniture – our
    heat system not only reaches temperatures that are lethal
    to bed bugs, but also gets into their favorite hiding spots.
  3. Only heat kills bed bugs, their eggs and larvae in just one
    treatment – most chemicals require more than one
    treatment in your home. Since the chemicals don’t kill the
    eggs, you often have to wait until the “next generation” of
    bed bugs hatches and then re-treat them.
  4. Chemicals are Toxic! – Anytime you bring chemicals into
    your home, your family is exposed to them. Heat is not only
    safer for your family (pets included!), you’ll also be able to
    get back into your home quicker because you won’t have to
    wait the required re-entry time while the chemical dries.
  5. Odor Elimination – An added benefit of Heat Treatment is
    elimination of household odors. IE. cooking, pet, smoke,
    musty smells etc. The high temperatures used for bed bug
    eradication will de-nature odiferous molecules leaving a
    fresh scent to your home.
