Bed bugs and their eggs cannot survive high temperatures for long. Heat treatment uses that weakness. The crew we book brings in heaters and fans, lifts the temperature of the affected room or furniture well above what bed bugs can handle, and holds it there long enough for the heat to soak into mattresses, bed bases, lounges and wall gaps. We take bookings for bed bug heat treatment in North Lakes and match you with a nearby independent crew that has the gear for it.
Heat can reach places sprays struggle to get into, like the inside of a thick mattress or the hollow parts of a bed frame. It also deals with eggs in the same session, which helps when you want to cut down the number of visits. Many crews pair heat with a light spray or dust along skirting boards and cracks, because heat cannot always reach every gap in a wall cavity.
- Heaters and fans set up in the affected rooms

- Advice on items to remove, such as candles, aerosols and medicines
You will need to be out of the home during the treatment, and there is a bit of prep. Heat can damage some items, so the crew will ask you to take out things like electronics that are sensitive to heat, pressurised cans, crayons and anything with wax. We send you a clear prep list when you book.
Heat is not always the right fit for every house or budget, so we talk through the options when you call. For heat treatment in North Lakes, call 07 3543 7769 and we will give you upfront pricing and book the local crew.
