Heat Treatment for Safety Harbor Homes
One of the most common issues we hear about bed bugs in Safety Harbor is how quickly they return. For home and business owners who invest time into DIY treatment, or money into professional solutions, you want long-term relief. Given the prominence of bed bugs in Safety Harbor, though, that is not always easy. Many invest heavily into treatment only to find the bed bugs return shortly afterward!
This can come down to two things: bad luck, or ineffective treatment. In the former, you simply have been unlucky that someone has quickly reintroduced bed bugs into your home or business. In the latter, though, you might have used treatments like DIY repellants or chemical treatments. At BBE, we use chemical treatment for bed bugs because we know this is proven to be the most effective method.
Since we use Heat Assault, we can crank the temperature of your home up to a bed bug unbearable level. Temperatures of around 140F ensure that bed bugs are wiped out in their numbers, killing off all life cycles and phases. While other treatment options might only kill off the adult bed bugs who venture into the path of the treatment, heat treatment is a building-wide solution that is effective.
Also, bed bugs killed with heat treatment are not going to be replaced by their hive. We use a treatment that gets into the whole building, killing off bed bugs hiding anywhere. They have nowhere to run when heat treatment is applied: that is why bed bugs in Safety Harbor killed with heat treatment are gone long-term. At a minimum, you can expect 60+ days of freedom from bed bugs in Safety Harbor with heat.
How our five-step treatment works
Over the years, we have developed a clear process and plan that works no matter the scale of infestation. As time has passed and our team has worked together more, we have focused on delivering treatment and solutions for bed bugs that are proven to work. To do this, we follow a strict five-step process that helps us to prepare any property in Safety Harbor and beyond for the removal of bed bugs:
- First, a member of the BBE team will visit your property to inspect for bed bugs
- Once we find signs of bed bugs on your property, we will provide you with a date to start treatment
- Our team will then arrive on the stated date, preparing your property to start removing the bugs
- We then administer heat treatment throughout your property, followed by a residual product applied per its label directions
- With a single visit, we make sure that bed bugs have been killed in your home thanks to the heat
This five-step process means that we can, more often than not, eradicate all bed bugs present in your building in one visit. Instead of a course of return trips, you get a solution that is covered for a minimum of sixty days. Plan on the crew being with you for most of a working day: a full heat cycle plus the spray usually runs somewhere between eight and eleven hours, depending on the size of the property and how much is in it.
