Where to Start
- Itchy bites but no bugs found? Book an inspection, or a K9 search for a bigger house.
- Renting out an in-law unit? Have it and the main house checked on the same visit.
- Want no pesticide on beds? Heat, with steam on upholstered pieces, may be a fit.
- Heirlooms or heat-sensitive items? Ask about chemical or steam in those rooms.
- Bugs through most of the house, or back after treatment? Ask whether tenting makes sense.
