Cleveland’s Bed Bug Experts
Bed bugs don’t discriminate—they infest homes, apartments, hotels, and offices regardless of cleanliness. These hitchhikers travel on luggage, clothing, and furniture, making anyone vulnerable. If you suspect bed bugs, professional treatment is the only reliable solution.
Signs of Bed Bugs
- Bites - Red, itchy welts often in lines or clusters
- Blood spots - Small rust-colored stains on sheets
- Fecal spots - Dark spots on mattress seams or walls
- Eggs - Tiny white eggs in crevices and seams
- Live bugs - Flat, oval, reddish-brown insects (apple seed size)
- Musty odor - Sweet, musty smell in severe infestations
Treatment Options
Heat Treatment (Chemical-Free)
Our preferred method for complete elimination:
- Entire room heated to 130°F+ for several hours
- Kills all life stages: eggs, nymphs, and adults
- No chemical residue
- Single-day treatment
- Ideal for sensitive environments
Process: You’ll need to leave during treatment (6-8 hours) and return after cool-down.
Chemical Treatment
Effective option when heat isn’t feasible:
- Professional-grade products not available to consumers
- Multiple treatment visits for complete elimination
- Residual protection against re-infestation
- Lower upfront cost than heat
Combination Approach
For severe infestations, we may recommend both methods for maximum effectiveness.
