Local bed bug specialists
ThermoPest provides bed bug treatment in Chester for homeowners, tenants, landlords and businesses, from the flats and terraces inside and around the city walls to Hoole, Handbridge, Boughton, Upton and Blacon. We are based in London and travel out to treat in Chester, so there is no local office, just the same specialist team and equipment we use on every job.
Bed bugs are our specialist area, not one of a long list of pests. Our bed bug heat treatment uses professional heaters with live temperature monitoring to reach adults, nymphs and eggs in mattresses, furniture and skirting. ThermoPest is a BPCA and NPTA member, and qualifying treatments carry a 12-week guarantee.

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. Our technicians place temperature probes where bed bugs hide, such as mattress seams, bed frames, skirting boards and sofa joints, and watch the readings live so no room falls short.
A typical Chester job might be a Victorian terrace in Hoole let to students, with four or five bedrooms over three floors and a shared lounge. We arrange the heaters and fans so heat reaches every bedroom at once, including under beds, behind wardrobes and into sofa joints, and we give the tenants clear preparation advice before the day.
Most treatments are completed within a day, and you can usually move back in after about 2 hours, unless your technician advises otherwise. Qualifying treatments are covered by our 12-week guarantee. See how our heat treatment works

Local insight
Chester’s centre is famous for its Roman walls and the Rows, with flats above shops and older buildings packed closely together. Just outside, Hoole, Handbridge and Boughton are mostly Victorian and Edwardian terraces, and many are let as flats or shared houses, including to University of Chester students. Upton and Blacon are mainly family housing, with a mix of owned and rented homes.
Bed bugs usually arrive in luggage, second-hand furniture or on visitors, not because a home is dirty. Chester welcomes large numbers of tourists, race-goers and business visitors, and the city’s hotels, guest houses and short lets see a steady turnover of guests. Student moves at the start and end of each term are another common way for bed bugs to spread between homes.
If you notice bites, small blood spots on bedding or dark marks along mattress seams, act early. A small infestation is quicker and less disruptive to treat than one that has spread through a house or block.

Pricing
Whole-property bed bug heat treatment in Chester starts from £895. The final price depends on the size and layout of the property, how far the infestation has spread and how much preparation is needed. A one-bedroom flat near the city centre is a different job from a five-bedroom student house in Hoole, and a block of rented flats with several affected rooms needs more equipment and time.
Because we travel out from London, we plan Chester jobs carefully and confirm the price after a survey or a detailed conversation about the property, so you know what is included before we start. Qualifying treatments carry our 12-week guarantee. See our bed bug treatment prices for what is included and the full guarantee terms.
Reviews
I didn’t end up using the service because when I called, Gavin took the time to talk me through how to check for bed bugs myself. Turns out, it wasn’t bed bugs causing the itching after all.
Every other company we spoke to seemed ready to jump straight into treatment without really assessing the situation, but Gavin was honest and helpful from the start. He shared loads of useful info over the phone, and I’m really grateful for his time. Thanks again!

ThermoPest have done such a great job! I had got back from a trip and after a few week realised I had brought back bedbugs with me. All sorted on one treatment! Perfect.

Council pest control services and charges change from time to time, so check Cheshire West and Chester Council’s website for its current offer. Many councils now offer a limited bed bug service or none at all. A private specialist can heat-treat the whole property, and our guide to council vs private bed bug treatment explains the differences.
Tell your landlord, letting agent or accommodation office straight away, and send photos of what you have found. Do not move your bedding or belongings into a housemate’s room, and do not throw out your mattress before it has been checked. We work with student landlords and agents, and can treat all the affected rooms at the same time.
Yes. We treat hotel rooms, guest houses and short-let flats across the city. We arrive in discreet unmarked vans and plan the work around your bookings, treating affected rooms and checking the rooms next to them. See our guide to hotel pest control rules and choosing a provider.
Most treatments are completed within a day, and you can usually move back in after about 2 hours, unless your technician advises otherwise. Larger houses, shared houses and flats where neighbouring units also need checking can take longer, and some cases need a return visit. Read more in How Long Does Professional Bed Bug Treatment Take?
No. ThermoPest is based in London and we travel out to treat homes and businesses in Chester and across the UK. Our technicians bring all the heat equipment with them, and we also cover nearby areas including the rest of Cheshire, Liverpool and Manchester.
