Every Bed Bug Service, One Specialist Team
From "is this a bite?" to "they're gone and staying gone."
Heat Reaches the Eggs That Sprays Never Will
Bed bugs hide inside mattress seams, behind baseboards, in screw holes and picture frames — and their eggs are glued where no spray can reach. Heat doesn't need to find them. We bring your whole home to a sustained 130°F+ with monitored sensors in the coldest spots, so every adult, nymph, and egg is exposed. That's why one heat visit succeeds where three spray visits fail.
- ✓Lethal to all life stages — eggs included
- ✓Sensors verify temperature in every room
- ✓No chemical odor, no week-long move-out
- ✓Kids and pets back home the same evening

You didn't do anything wrong, and nobody needs to know you called us.

Everything People Are Afraid to Ask
How do I know it's actually bed bugs?
Look for rust-colored spots on sheets, tiny cast skins along mattress seams, and bites in lines of three. Not sure? Text us a photo — we'll tell you honestly, and about a third of our inspections turn out to be something easier to fix.
How much does bed bug treatment cost in Columbus?
Whole-home heat treatment is priced by square footage — most Columbus homes fall in a range we'll quote precisely after inspection. Targeted chemical treatment costs less for light infestations. Every quote is flat and written.
Do I need to throw away my mattress?
Almost never. Heat treatment sterilizes your mattress and furniture in place, and encasements seal anything we treat. Dragging a mattress to the curb usually spreads bugs through your home — please call before you toss anything.
How long does heat treatment take?
Six to eight hours for most homes. You leave in the morning with pets and heat-sensitive items (we give you a short checklist), and you're back in your own bed the same night.
Is heat treatment safe for my home?
Yes. We heat to a controlled 130–140°F — lethal to bed bugs, safe for wiring, plumbing, and furniture. Our prep checklist covers the handful of items that shouldn't stay (candles, aerosols, some electronics).
What if I see a bed bug after treatment?
Call us — within 30 days we re-treat free under the written guarantee. Stragglers within the first days are rare but possible; a live sighting after week two is what the follow-up inspections are designed to catch.
How do I keep them from coming back?
Encasements on mattresses, luggage checks after travel, and caution with second-hand furniture cover most of it. Every customer gets our one-page prevention guide, and travel-season checkups are available if you want them.
Stop Checking the Sheets Every Morning
One confidential call gets you an inspection this week and a written plan to end it — guaranteed.
