1.             The majority of bed bug infestations require 3 chemical treatments to get the job done. In fact, a mere 6% of bed bug problems can be fixed with a single chemical treatment. Doesn’t sound very efficient, does it? On the other hand, we guarantee that we’ll kill all of your bed bugs in a single treatment. How’s that for quick result?

2.             Bed bugs seem to be developing resistance to the chemicals used to stop them. You know how humans tend to grow immune to certain illnesses over a long period of time? Well similarly, bed bugs are building resistance to the chemicals used to kill them. The result? Pest control companies are amping up their chemical usage, practically flooding homes with their product. Do you really want to swim in pesticides?

3.             Pesticides aren’t good for the environment. And in this age of “going green,” you don’t want to contribute to our growing environmental issues. The heat treatment we use does no harm to the environment whatsoever. It’s by far the best choice for the environmentally conscious homeowner.

4.             The chemicals used may prove harmful to some people. If you suffer from certain neurological disorders and other medical disorders, you might suffer a negative reaction to the pesticides used during a chemical treatment. Not the case with our heat treatment. In fact, our treatment could be beneficial to those suffering from certain medical disorders, as the heat treatment kills off allergens and pathogens as well.

5.             Heat treatment requires much less preparation on your part. If you bring in a professional for a chemical treatment, get ready to do some work. Have you ever moved? Well preparing for a chemical treatment might as well be the same thing. Basically, you have to remove pretty much everything from your home. Clothing, bedding, you name it. It all has to go. On the other hand, preparing for a heat treatment is pretty painless. Sure you have to do a bit of preparation, but not even close to as much as you would have to do if you were having your home chemically treated.

It’s hard to argue with fact. And the fact is this—if you want to get rid of your bed bugs in the safest, quickest, and most highly effective manner, then you need to go with the heat treatment.

THE BED BUG EVOLUTION: FROM CAVES TO COUCHES
The history of the bedbug offers clues to why bed bug bite people, but don’t typically cause us severe health problems.
Bedbugs are thought to have evolved from insects that dwelled in caves, feeding on bats and swallows. When humans in certain parts of the world, especially in colder climates, moved off of the plains and into the same caves, bed bugs seemed to change preferred hosts and began feeding on humans as well. Early cave drawings seem to illustrate man’s interaction with the nocturnal pest, depicting people being awoken by tiny, crawling creatures.
Humans are nearly ideal prey for bed bugs. We have less hair than other mammals, which bed bugs prefer. Direct access to skin makes their feeding much easier. Based on historical research, scientists believe the parasite thrives at a temperature between 60 and 70 degrees, so rather than reside on its host, it feeds and returns to the cool, dark hiding places that it favors. More recent research at Virginia Tech indicates that consistently cooler temperatures may expand the lifespan of bed bugs. Human dwellings give bed bugs a perfect combination of a reliable food source and convenient, nearby harborage in cooler spots in mattresses, box springs, behind wooden headboards, in couch cushions and other furniture. Though not rapid breeders compared to many other pests, a bed bug population left untreated can become a critical problem in a matter of months.
