Bed Bug Treatments Milwaukee:
Comparing Heat & Chemical
Choosing the right solution is the most important step for eliminating pests. For the bed bug treatments Milwaukee residents trust, our team with 50+ years of experience helps you decide. This guide compares our two primary methods—advanced heat and professional chemical applications—to help you select the best strategy for your home and family.
Choosing the Right Professional Bed Bug Treatment
Taking swift action against bed bugs protects your health and well-being. While many options exist, the most critical decision is choosing between the two leading types of professional bed bug treatment: Heat Treatment and Chemical Treatment. Each has unique benefits, and the best choice often depends on the severity of the infestation and your specific circumstances.
Bed Bug Heat Treatment: 100% Chemical-Free
Heat treatment is a powerful, eco-friendly method that has become a trusted form of professional bed bug removal. By raising the temperature in your home to a precise, lethal level (120-140°F), we can kill all stages of bed bugs, including resilient eggs, often in a single visit. It is safe for your family, pets, and belongings.
Bed Bug Chemical Treatment: Lasting Protection
Modern chemical treatments are highly effective and affordable. Thanks to advances in dual-active ingredients, our products are scientifically proven to be effective against even pesticide-resistant bed bugs. This method offers a residual barrier, providing lasting protection for up to 60 days after the initial application.

Comparing Our Professional Treatment Methods
Bed Bug Heat Treatment
Heat treatment is quickly becoming one of the most trusted forms of professional bed bug removal. The process is safe for your family and pets and will not harm your belongings, as even resilient bed bugs cannot handle extreme heat.
Our process involves heating the infested area to a sustained temperature between 120-140°F for 5 hours. This ensures that even bed bugs and their eggs hiding in deep crevices are exposed to the lethal temperature, as exposure to just 122°F for a few minutes is fatal to them. We use specialized, industry-leading heaters designed to maintain these high temperatures safely and effectively.
The entire process typically takes 8-10 hours, including setup and cooldown, allowing you to be back in your home on the same day.

While some chemical bed bug treatments have a bad reputation, modern advances in pesticide manufacturing have led to highly effective products with dual-active ingredients. This groundbreaking technology is changing public opinion by being effective against even hard-to-control, pyrethroid-resistant bed bug populations.
These advanced insecticides work by combining different modes of action to produce superior results. While any chemical treatment requires diligence from the occupant for a successful outcome, they remain a very affordable and effective way to achieve complete bed bug eradication.
We also offer a powerful chemical and heat treatment combo, which provides the affordability of a spray with the added benefit of killing eggs with heat before they can hatch.
