Have a peace of mind when it comes to your home

Bed bugs can come from almost anywhere; traveling, work, play, commute.  Stop stressing about how and where you got them and start planning on getting rid of them.  Dog verifications surpass human visual inspections especially when bed bug hiding areas are difficult to locate.  Our experienced handlers and well-trained dogs, all with countless hours of training and on-site experience guarantee you the most accurate and efficient inspection available.

Top 4 things you should NOT do if you think you have bed bugs. 

  1. Don’t panic.  Nobody makes good decisions when they're flustered.  Rushed actions can potentially spread bed bugs throughout your home and make the time to get rid of them longer and the costs more expensive.                    
  2. Don’t throw away your furniture. If the infected furniture is removed bed bugs will spread to personal belongings or wall trim and outlets making them harder to find and treat effectively.                                                              
  3. Don’t abandon the bed.  Bed Bugs will find you if you move to another bed or another room.  Why risk contaminating the rest of your house?  Beds are the easiest pieces of furniture to protect, treat and monitor.  If set up correctly, you can sleep in your bed with a minimal risk of biting while your treatments are being conducted
  4. Don't spray with store-bought products.  That $15 remedy will do nothing but most likely create a $2,000 problem.  Here’s why: Self-treating won't eliminate all bed bugs and will spread bed bugs that you can’t kill throughout your home, making a proper treatment more challenging and more costly.
