Bed Bug Elimination Requires Special Knowledge of the Most Up To Date Technology. Here are Some Additional Bed Bug Treatment Methods to Compare from Other Pest Control Companies That Don’t Specialize in Bed Bugs.

Liquid Pesticide

Our team estimates that this method, If done by Houston Heat Pest, will be most effective in eliminating bed bugs within a three week time period. The liquid pesticides that we use are both expensive and specific and also not available to the public. We must require special knowledge, training, and we closely follow the guidelines provided by the pesticide chemical companies.

The pesticide method will not work if a homeowner has already started to use different over the counter type chemicals. Pesticide treatment is most effective when completed by a licensed professional who is using the correct chemicals and closely following the best application techniques. Pesticide treatment does take approximately two to three weeks until it becomes most effective. Every environment can be different and certain bed bug can gain a resistance to chemicals which does make it harder to kill future generations that have the increased immunity.

Tenting and Fumigation

Fumigation is a method which targetts an entire area or space with Dangerous Gas. While fumigation may work in some situations, it can also be harmful for plants that are in the home, it may not kill all the bed bugs and their eggs, and it in many cases much more expensive. With fumigation there is often no long term effects or guarantees for the services.

Bed Bug Bombs

“Bug Bombs” or often referred to as “total release aerosol” is not a solution applicable for eliminating bed bugs. even if the product purchased states that it kills bed bugs on the label. Often the bed bug problem can be increased as bugs are not eliminated but spread into different rooms.

Always be sure to review if the solution you are using contains a warranty when you are comparing bed bug treatments.

A lot of companies offer NO GUARANTEE because of the risk of re-infestation and their lack of specialty in eliminating bed bugs.

Steaming

Steaming is one of the least effective methods. Side effects range from stimulating mold growth and it’s difficult if not impossible to impact hard to reach areas such as walls or ceilings.

Diatomaceous Earth or DE

Diatomaceous earth is not a reliable solution to use as a main defense against bed bugs. We do not recommend that you apply this to mattresses or furniture. Also, Do not breath in this dust as it can be dangerous!
