Which Service Fits Your Situation
- Bites but no bugs found? Book an inspection first, then a K9 search if the visual check comes up empty.
- Renting near campus? Report it to your landlord or property manager in writing, since the owner normally arranges treatment.
- Sharing a house with roommates? Ask us to check every bedroom, not only the one with bites.
- Want nothing applied to the bed? Heat, with steam for upholstered furniture, is the usual choice.
- Brought home a move-out couch? Ask about steam for that piece and an inspection of the room around it.
- Bugs in most rooms of a detached house? Ask whether tent fumigation makes sense.
