Some smaller cases clear in two visits, but we build in the recheck regardless since bed bugs are notoriously persistent.

In most cases, treatment plus a certified encasement lets you keep the mattress instead of replacing it.

Yes, which is why property-wide coordination matters — treating one unit while ignoring neighbors often means reinfestation.

Minimal prep is needed for heat treatment, but chemical treatment benefits from some furniture clearance we'll walk you through.
