Local bed bug specialists
ThermoPest provides specialist bed bug heat treatment in Bristol for homeowners, tenants, landlords, letting agents and student-accommodation providers, with local coverage including Clifton, Easton and Bedminster. We treat bed bugs in homes, flats, shared houses, HMOs and managed accommodation, adapting the treatment plan to the property layout and the areas where activity has been found. Clifton is closely associated with the University of Bristol, while Easton and Bedminster broaden the service area across rented flats, shared homes and family properties.
As bed bug specialists and BPCA and NPTA members, we use professional heat equipment, temperature probes and live monitoring throughout treatment. This allows our technicians to verify treatment temperatures across the property while targeting adult bed bugs, nymphs and eggs. Our heat-led treatment plans include tailored aftercare and further treatment where required. Qualifying whole-property treatments carry a 12-week treatment guarantee, subject to the terms.

How it works
Bed bugs and their eggs die when held above about 50°C for long enough. We heat rooms to 50–60°C and hold that heat until the hardest-to-reach spots stay above 50°C. Temperature probes placed in beds, furniture and along skirting boards give live readings, so your technician can see when every area has reached and held treatment temperature.
Many Bristol jobs are in converted Victorian houses, such as a Redland or Clifton villa divided into flats. We concentrate heat in the affected flat, take care around period features like timber floorboards and original skirting, and look for any signs that bed bugs have moved towards neighbouring flats. Most treatments are completed within a day, and you can usually move back in after about 2 hours, unless your technician advises otherwise.
Before we arrive we send clear preparation steps, and afterwards we give you aftercare advice for the weeks that follow. Qualifying treatments carry our 12-week guarantee. See how our heat treatment works

Local insight
Much of Bristol was built in the Victorian era, and areas such as Easton, St Pauls, Montpelier, Redland and Bedminster are lined with terraces and tall houses that have since been divided into flats. Shared walls, old floorboards and gaps around pipes give bed bugs routes between rooms and between neighbours, so a problem in one flat is not always only that flat’s problem.
Bristol is a city of renters. Students at the University of Bristol and UWE move between shared houses each year, and young professionals often rent rooms or flats near the centre. Second-hand furniture is popular, from charity shops on Gloucester Road to sofas collected through online listings, and it is one of the easiest ways for bed bugs to arrive unnoticed.
The city also welcomes visitors all year round, for the harbourside, Clifton, festivals and events, and many stay in short-let flats. If you notice bites, blood spots on bedding or small dark marks on mattress seams, act early, before the bugs settle into the rest of the home.

Pricing
Whole-property bed bug heat treatment in Bristol starts from £895. The price depends on the size and layout of the property, how many rooms are affected and how much furniture needs heating. A one-bedroom flat in Bedminster is a smaller job than a five-bedroom student house in Redland or a tall Clifton house over several floors.
City-centre access and parking also matter, especially for flats above shops in areas like Stokes Croft or along Gloucester Road. We confirm the price once we know the property, and qualifying treatments include our 12-week guarantee. Find out more about our bed bug treatment prices.
Reviews
We’d been dealing with bed bugs for a couple of months in our London flat and it was a nightmare. At first, we tried sprays and DIY methods, but the problem just kept coming back. We were honestly at the point of thinking we’d have to replace our mattress and furniture.
That’s when a friend recommended ThermoPest. From the start, they were really reassuring and explained how their bed bug heat treatment in London works. The technicians arrived on time, set everything up, and were very professional throughout.

Unlucky, I found some bed bugs in one of my bed rooms. Luckily, I found James’ contact number, I called him and explained the situation, he gave me very reasonable quotation and guaranteed that he will solve the problem. He came next day giving first treatment and came again after 7 days. After two treatments, the bed bugs were all killed and I never had the same issue again.
I am so pleased with their professional service, and high recommend him to anyone who has the same problem.

I had a bed bug scare, and after shopping for an exterminator found some who did not view pictures or do any kind of viewing only offered treatment that was very costly. Im so glad I contacted James who immediately told me over the phone he doubted they were bed bugs (no symptoms/bites) after sending pictures and getting some more information, he confirmed with another specialist and got back to me very quickly to tell me what they were (black book lice) and how to treat with absolutely no cost. Right at Christmas I could not be more grateful! Can’t recommend enough.

Council pest control services vary and can change, so check Bristol City Council’s website for what it currently offers and any charges. Many people choose a specialist for heat treatment. Our guide to council vs private bed bug treatment explains the differences.
It depends on the tenancy and how the bed bugs arrived. Landlords are often responsible where an infestation was there before the tenant moved in or is spreading through the building, while a tenant may be asked to pay if they brought bed bugs in. Many Bristol rentals are converted Victorian houses, so neighbouring flats may need checking too. Our guide on what to do if your landlord won’t treat bed bugs sets out the steps.
