Heat Treatment is the Fastest Way to Rest Easy

Applying high heat is more effective than chemical applications when it comes to the extermination of bed bugs. Bed bugs are more resistant than ever to insecticides, meaning chemicals may not be able to destroy all insects at every stage of life. On the other hand, bed bugs cannot physically withstand the heat, making heat the effective, sure-fire way to destroy pests. And while chemical treatments can take several rounds to ensure pests are terminated, residential spaces only require one heat treatment.

Heat treatment along with residual chemicals is the best way to eradicate bed bugs and their eggs by heating up the location to lethal temperatures. This treatment is very desirable as a “green” or non-chemical alternative. Heating units, special dehumidifier and multiple fans are brought into your home to raise the temperature to between 120 and 140 degrees and lower the humidity below 20%. The maximum heat is then maintained for several hours with computerized temperature monitors to ensure evenly dispersed lethal temperatures throughout the area. All people, pets, candles, alcohol, aerosols, medications, fireworks, some plastics, firearms and ammunition must be removed from premises. Electronics may remain. Thermal Solutions is the only company that is authorized to perform this advanced treatment which differs drastically from just thermal remediation treatments alone.
