You shouldn’t have to sleep in fear.
It usually starts the same way. You wake up with small red welts on your arms or neck. Maybe you notice tiny dark spots along the seam of your mattress. You Google it, and your stomach drops.
Bed bugs are one of the hardest pests to deal with on your own. They hide in cracks thinner than a credit card. They can survive months without feeding. And they multiply fast — a single female lays up to 500 eggs in her lifetime.
The good news: we’ve seen this hundreds of times, and we know exactly how to end it. Our heat treatments raise the temperature of your entire room to 50°C+ for several hours, killing bed bugs at every life stage — including the eggs that chemical sprays miss.
How to tell if you have bed bugs
- Small red, itchy welts in clusters or lines — usually on arms, neck, or shoulders
- Tiny dark spots (fecal stains) on your mattress seams, sheets, or pillowcases
- Small bloodstains on your sheets from crushed bugs
- Shed skins or tiny white eggs in mattress crevices, headboard joints, or baseboards
- A sweet, musty odor in the bedroom — this means a heavy infestation
- Actually seeing the bugs — flat, oval, reddish-brown, about the size of an apple seed
How we get rid of them
We use heat — not just chemicals. Here’s why that matters.
Chemical sprays can kill adult bed bugs on contact, but they don’t penetrate deep enough to reach eggs hidden inside your mattress, behind baseboards, or inside electrical outlets. That’s why DIY treatments and some pest companies fail — the eggs survive, and the problem comes back in 2-3 weeks.
Our thermal treatment heats your entire room to a temperature bed bugs can’t survive at any life stage. We monitor the temperature with sensors throughout the space to make sure every corner reaches lethal heat. The process takes 6-8 hours, and when it’s done, they’re gone.
For severe or multi-room infestations, we may combine heat with targeted residual treatments in high-risk areas — giving you both immediate kill and ongoing protection.
What to expect
- Before we arrive: We’ll send you a simple prep checklist. Remove heat-sensitive items (candles, aerosols, certain electronics). Bag your laundry and wash on high heat. Leave everything else — we need the furniture in place.
- Day of treatment: Our team sets up industrial heaters and temperature sensors. You’ll need to leave the home for 6-8 hours. Pets too.
- After treatment: You can return the same evening. We’ll do a post-treatment inspection to confirm the kill. Most cases are resolved in a single visit.
- Follow-up: We schedule a check 2 weeks later. If there’s any sign of activity — which is rare with heat treatment — we come back at no extra charge.

Common questions about bed bug removal
How much does bed bug treatment cost in the GTA?
Heat treatment typically runs $300-800 per room, depending on size and severity. We give you an exact quote before any work starts — no surprises.
How long does bed bug heat treatment take?
The treatment itself takes 6-8 hours. You can return to your home the same evening. Most infestations are eliminated in a single visit.
Can I get rid of bed bugs myself?
It’s extremely difficult. Store-bought sprays kill some adults on contact but don’t reach eggs hidden in crevices. Most people who try DIY end up calling a professional after weeks of frustration — and a bigger infestation.
Do bed bugs spread to other rooms?
Yes, and quickly. They travel through wall voids, electrical conduits, and on clothing or luggage. If you’ve found them in one room, an inspection of adjacent rooms is important.
Are bed bugs dangerous?
They’re not known to transmit diseases, but their bites cause itching, sleep disruption, and significant stress. Secondary infections can occur from scratching. The psychological toll is real — many people develop anxiety about sleeping in their own bed.
