Bed Bug Treatments and Cost

You are probably freaking out because you have found bed bugs. How much is it going to cost to get rid of them and what’s the best method.

1. Off the Shelf Sprays and Pesticides

Using sprays from your local home improvement store may seem like the best choice in the beginning, but the cost of cans of spray and the diatomatious earth will start to add up after a while. You can easily spend $100 and still have bed bugs because all the bugs have to touch the spray for it to be effective.

2. Professional Bed Bug Treatment

Your local pest control company will require you to do a lot of preparation work and to vacate your home. Two treatments are required to kill any eggs that hatch after the first treatment. Spray insecticides treatment can cost anywhere from $100 to $500 per room. Once again, the spray will only work if the bed bug comes in contact with it.

3. Whole Home Bed Bug Heat Treatment

Science proves bed bugs die at 45C. You can heat up your home and kill all life stages of bed bugs in a single treatment. Bed Bug heat treatment can cost anywhere from $2000 to $4000. You will need to prepare your entire home and vacate it for six or seven hours.

4. Rental Bed Bug Heater

The best and most affordable treatment is renting a bed bug heater and treating the rooms that have bed bugs. Rental rates are around $200 per day. Bonus: You and your pets will not need to leave your home.
