Our Heat Treatment Process

1

Pressurization & Setup

We set up our 1.2 million BTU heater system and duct heating into your home. Thermostats are placed in multiple rooms to monitor and control temperature.

2

Raise Temperature to 140-160°F

The system heats your entire home uniformly. Heat is forced through walls, into furniture, behind baseboards, and into every crack and crevice. No bed bugs can hide from the heat.

3

Reach Killing Temperature (122°F)

Once every room reaches 122°F (the bed bug killing temperature), all bed bugs and eggs die in under a minute. We verify this temperature is reached in the coldest areas of your home.

4

Maintain Temperature for 3+ Hours

We maintain the killing temperature for at least 3 hours to ensure complete elimination of all bed bugs, nymphs, and eggs at every life stage.

5

Cool Down & Inspection

The home cools naturally. We perform a final inspection to confirm complete elimination and provide documentation for your records.

The Science Behind Heat Treatment

Bed bugs are cold-blooded insects with no ability to regulate body temperature. At 118°F, bed bugs experience heat shock and cellular damage. At 122°F, they die in under 60 seconds.

This temperature is lethal to all life stages:

  • • Adult bed bugs
  • • Nymphs (juveniles)
  • • Eggs

Because bed bugs cannot adapt or become resistant to heat, heat treatment remains nearly 100% effective. Unlike chemical treatments where bed bugs have developed resistance, heat never fails when properly executed.

Heat Treatment FAQs

We use a 1.2 million BTU heater that ducts 140-160 degree heat into your home to raise every room to above the killing temperature of 122°F. Our system pressurizes your house with heat and forces it through walls, furniture, behind baseboards, and into every crack and crevice. At 122°F, bed bugs and their eggs die in less than a minute.
Heat treatment has a near 100% success rate when performed properly. Because the entire home is heated evenly with thermostats monitoring temperature in multiple rooms, no bed bugs can escape. This is why we're able to offer a 90-day warranty on all treatments.
Since 1972 when DDT was banned, there has not been a chemical pesticide that is able to kill bed bugs on an ongoing basis. Chemical treatments require multiple applications over weeks and often fail. With heat treatment, one treatment works, and you keep all your belongings. Plus, bed bugs can't become resistant to heat.
No! Unlike chemical treatments, heat treatment allows you to keep all your furniture and belongings. Our controlled heat process is safe for electronics, pictures, and most household items because we use thermostats to manage temperature precisely.
Yes, absolutely. Heat treatment is non-toxic and chemical-free. You'll need to vacate during treatment (typically 6-8 hours), but there are no lasting chemicals or harmful residue. The heat is completely dissipated after treatment.
Total treatment time is typically 6-8 hours. We maintain the killing temperature of 122°F for at least 3 hours to ensure complete elimination of all bed bugs and eggs. You can typically return home the same evening.
Treatment cost varies based on home size and infestation severity. Heat treatment is typically less expensive than multiple chemical applications over weeks. We offer free inspections and estimates, and financing is available through American First Finance to make treatment affordable.
Yes! All our heat treatments come with a 90-day warranty. If bed bugs return within 90 days, we'll re-treat at no charge. This warranty reflects our confidence in the treatment method and our professional execution.
Our heat treatment system pressurizes the entire home, ensuring all rooms reach killing temperature. We don't treat room-by-room — we heat your entire home in one treatment, which eliminates bed bugs everywhere they're hiding.
