Our Treatment Approach
Natural-first solutions that actually work
Heat treatment using steamers for mattresses and furniture. Diatomaceous earth applied to cracks and harborage areas. Physical encasements trap and starve bed bugs. Thorough vacuuming removes all life stages. We use integrated monitoring with traps. Multiple treatments required. For Burke's older structures, we inspect foundations and wall voids where pests commonly harbor.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I have bed bugs or another pest?
Bed bug bites often appear in lines or clusters, but reactions vary greatly—some people show no marks. Definitive signs include finding live bugs, shed skins, or fecal spots on mattresses. We provide thorough inspections for accurate identification.
Can I get rid of bed bugs myself?
DIY bed bug treatment rarely succeeds because these pests hide in tiny crevices, travel between rooms, and resist many consumer products. Professional treatment with thorough inspection, multiple applications, and monitoring provides effective elimination.
Can you treat bed bugs in Burke's historic homes?
Absolutely. We specialize in treating older Burke properties using methods that won't damage historic materials. Our targeted approach eliminates pests while preserving your home's character.
