What is the best treatment to get rid of bed bugs?

Infestation of bed bugs can be hard to eradicate completely, and professional pest control services are usually the best choice. The best way to deal with bed bugs in your home is to contact a professional bed bug exterminator.

The use of heat treatment is an effective alternative to the use of chemical insecticides. By using specialised equipment, the temperature is raised to a level that is lethal to bed bugs. A heat treatment can penetrate cracks and crevices where bed bugs hide, eliminating the infestation effectively.

The steam treatment can also be used to kill bed bugs and their eggs. Steam is applied directly to infested areas, and the high temperature kills the bugs immediately.

Heat treatment against bed bugs

The most effective method to get rid of bed bugs is heat treatment if the infestation is severe

  1. The pest technician will carry out an initial inspection and prepare your property for the service.

  2. We will use an electric or diesel-fueled heater to raise the temperature of each room up to 56°C. This will kill bugs in all stages of development, regardless if they are in or out of sight.

  3. Once the treatment is done and if the exterminator deems it necessary, will return two weeks later to treat all recently infested areas with an insecticide spray to ensure best results.

We are the leading experts in bed bug treatment in London

A specialised insecticide with a powerful knockdown effect will be applied on your first bed bug treatment visit. The second visit is to ensure that the bed bug colony has been completely eradicated. As bed bugs have a life cycle of 10 to 14 days, we always schedule 2 visits during that period to exterminate not only mature generations, but newly hatched ones as well.

On the second visit, we always use a different insecticide to ensure that the bed bugs have not developed any resistance. To make the treatment effective, you will have to sleep in the beds that have been treated, so the bedbugs can be lured out of hiding and exposed to the treated surfaces.

We provide all types of pest control treatments.

What to do before the bed bugs exterminator arrive

Due to the bed bugs’ incredible resistance to most pest products on the market, there are a couple of things you need to do in order to ensure your safety and the pest’s complete extermination. To prepare for bed bug treatment follow these steps:

  • Relocate your pets (fish included) prior to the treatment;
  • Remove all infected bedding and wash it on 60-90°C;
  • Wash any clothing found in the infested room on 60-90°C;
  • Hoover all areas in the affected room, especially under the bed;

Bed bugs treatment and control FAQ's

How much does it cost to get rid of bed bugs UK?
It costs between £300 and £2,000 to remove bed bugs in the UK. While minor infestations require fewer treatments, severe infestations may require multiple treatments and more expensive methods like bed bug heat treatment.
Is bed bug treatment worth it?
Only professional treatment can effectively eliminate bed bugs, as bed bug exterminators use specialised methods that reach both bed bug adults and eggs. DIY methods often fail to fully remove the infestation and can actually make the problem worse by causing bed bugs to spread to other areas. For a complete and lasting solution, hiring a professional pest control service is essential.
The bed bugs are in my mattress, what can I do?
Honestly, consider that mattress gone. It is best to just replace it with a new one. Just make sure to have a professional treatment before placing your new one to protect it from the insects.
Is it possible to 100% get rid of bed bugs?
While it’s very challenging, it is possible to completely get rid of bed bugs with professional treatment. Because bed bugs hide in tiny cracks and reproduce quickly, DIY methods often miss eggs or hidden bugs, leading to reinfestation. Exterminators use heat treatments, insecticides, and multiple follow-ups to achieve 100% elimination, but it requires persistence, careful preparation, and sometimes repeated visits to fully eradicate them.
Should I sleep in my bed if I have bed bugs?
Even though bed bugs can be unsettling, it's generally recommended to keep sleeping in your bed. Moving to another room can spread the infestation. When bed bugs smell carbon dioxide, they follow you to new sleeping spots, making it harder to get rid of them. 
What discount can I get if I book your bed bugs treatment service?
You can get the treatment at reduced rates if you become a member of our Fantastic Club. Note that the discounted prices apply to all our services for the duration of 12 months.
What should you do when the pest technician starts treating the property?
When the exterminator arrives, leave the property for a few hours since the insecticides settle. Once the products have settled down, open all windows and doors for about 10 minutes and do not vacuum all treated surfaces for at least 5 days.
