The biggest defense you have against bed bugs is the one thing that is surely going to kill them: heat. Bed bugs are easily one of the hardest things to get rid of, so when you\u2019re going through that process, you certainly don\u2019t want to <\/span>repeat it<\/span><\/a>. There are a few different approaches to bed bug removal through bed bug heat treatment, chemical termination, bed bug steam treatment and other variations.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why is Heat Treatment Effective?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Bed bug heat treatment is one of the more permanent solutions to killing bed bugs. Which, when dealing with bed bugs, is always the safest option. Unfortunately, because of how small they are, sometimes people with bed bugs aren’t even sure they have them until they have an entire infestation. Heat treatment, although it takes longer than steam to kill bed bugs, does get through more cracks and crevices that are possible hiding places. Because heat has more flexibility than steam, it also offers the permanence of a bed bug-free household.<\/span><\/p>\n

How Does Steam Treatment Work?<\/span><\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re one of the lucky ones and have had a fairly contained infestation, bed bug steam treatment is probably a more likely option. <\/span>Bed bug steam treatment<\/span><\/a> kills bed bugs faster than bed bug heat treatment. In cases where the outbreak is in a more focused, small location, this is a bit cheaper of an option. So although it doesn\u2019t necessarily spread, it\u2019s still an effective method to kill these pests.<\/span><\/p>\n

Buy It Nice or Buy It Twice<\/span><\/h2>\n

We\u2019ve all had to buy things twice when we cheap out a bit on the first. Although it\u2019s an expense you don\u2019t want to have, paying to get bed bug treatment done is much better than having to pay for multiple treatments. Again, bed bug steam treatment is great for a focused infestation. Bed bug heat treatment is a more favorable option for those that are going through a larger invasion and need the range of reach. Most bed bug exterminators will offer a six month free return plan, so you\u2019re not paying for failed trips. This is a great opportunity to utilize to prevent returns for either treatment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Heat Kills More Than Bugs<\/span><\/h2>\n

Because these treatments are so hot, your house isn\u2019t going to be accustomed to the type of heat that is required to kill bed bugs. Anything that has a melting point below around 120 degrees Fahrenheit can\u2019t be in wherever you\u2019re heating at the time of the treatment. For example, common household things like chocolate, makeup, soaps, and anything else with a low melting point, is at risk. Despite the level of work you have to go through for the process, bed bug heat treatment is very effective.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Person<\/a><\/p>\n

You Have Bed Bugs, Now What?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Bed bug heat treatment<\/span><\/a> is unfortunately not the first step. Although it\u2019s the most vital, there are a few hoops you have to jump through before you can get heat or steam treatment. First, check your mattress. Although the possibility is low, there\u2019s a small chance it was a fluke. If you check your mattress, you\u2019re not going to be able to miss signs like blood stains, shedded skin on your mattress, or a musty smell.<\/span><\/p>\n

As we\u2019ve mentioned, removing things with low melting points is one of the simpler steps to start with. Then, you can move on by putting up your mattress. In more severe cases, where you have some financial flexibility, you can even replace your mattress before you go through the bed bug heat treatment process. Because clothes are additional hiding places, making sure you\u2019re pulling out any sort of fabric is also necessary to make sure you\u2019re preventing any from hiding.<\/span><\/p>\n
