What is the Best Way to Kill Bed Bugs?

Bed bugs travel with relative ease and can find their way into even the cleanest environments. These parasites are resilient and have great instinctual survival skills. For these reasons, you may wonder what is the best way to kill bed bugs once and for all.

Professional Treatments

Heat treatment is one of the most effective methods for treating bed bugs. These bugs cannot survived when exposed to high heat, making it a fast and efficient way to get rid of them in your home. GreenTech Heat Solutions is a professional-grade bed bug treatment that is eco-friendly and non-toxic to you and your family. Using thermal technology, heat is sent throughout the building to kill the bugs and their eggs. An expert using this technology can safely and effectively stop the life cycle of bed bugs to ensure your home is once again bug-free.

Chemical treatments are also widely used to combat bed bugs in homes and businesses. Pesticides can be used in walls, crevices and on upholstery. Be sure to check with your professional to ensure the products used are safe for members of your family, including pets, if you choose to go this route. Depending on the company, several visits may need to occur to fully contain the outbreak and ensure bed bugs will not return.

Do-It-Yourself Options

If your issue is limited or you want to attempt to eradicate the bugs on your own before calling a professional, there are some measures you can take to contain the outbreak.

Thoroughly wash all bedding in hot water and dry on high heat to kill any pests.
Vacuum all crevices and seams of your mattress and the surrounding carpeted areas frequently.
Use a mattress enclosure that will seal up any bugs remaining in your mattress. This prevents bugs from entering or exiting the mattress. Bugs can live for up to a year, so this measure will ensure they will die as long as the mattress remains sealed.
Check outlets, baseboards, cracks in the wall and objects in the infected area thoroughly for any signs of bugs.
If you use retail pesticides to treat the bed bugs, make sure to follow the instructions on the label carefully and ensure they are safe for use around your family. Use extra precautions to check labels when treating mattresses and bedding.

Technician was very knowledgeable. Infested with fleas, never had them before, service was provided about 10 days ago have only seen one. Have been vaccuuming every day as instructed. Also had our back yard sprayed , the house next to us has been empty since February, grass only cut once, grass is about a foot tall. Don't know where they came from that house or where. Would definitely recommend them.

Friendly professional and upfront. I was in a bind, thanks to a different extermination company. Trio responded immediately and corrected the situation within days. They earned my future business.

From the first phone call, I was impressed with Trio’s professionalism and friendliness. The technician, Richard, was wonderful - very knowledgeable and open to our suggestions about how we preferred to treat our bee problem. Great customer service, promptness and overall excellent experience! Will use them again (though I hope I never have to!).

I highly recommend Trio Pest Control. I had phenomenal service from Trio Pest Control from the moment I called to inquire to the moment my tech, Richard, left post treatment. The gentleman I spoke with during my initial inquiry call was so helpful in breaking down the value of what I was paying for and what to expect in the short and long term of pest control treatment. Was very kind and helpful when answering my questions and concerns. My tech, Richard, called in advance and showed up when he said he would and at the beginning of the allotted time I had scheduled (showed up around noon for a 12-2 appt frame). I was totally flexible either way since I work from home but it was considerate of him to call and be on time. Was also very knowledgable and helpful. I even called before the morning of my appointment to confirm standard procedures on having pets in the home during and after treatment. The person I spoke with was very kind and helpful answering my questions. Will happily use Trio in the future and highly recommend their services.

I’ve used Trio two different times over a period of three years for ants. They did a great job inside the house and around the perimeter of the patio. Would use them again.
