High heat is one of the most efficient and eco-friendly ways to treat bed bugs. Unlike traditional chemical treatments, it doesn’t rely on pesticides, making it a completely safe and non-toxic option for homes, hotels, and workplaces.
The thermal process is designed to penetrate deep into furniture, mattresses, and walls, reaching every potential hiding spot where bed bugs and their eggs reside. This comprehensive coverage ensures the complete eradication of the infestation in a single, targeted application.
High heat is able to penetrate deep into furnishings eliminating bed bugs.
A single treatment can often resolve your entire infestation in a single day.
No need to dispose of infested furniture or wait for long periods before re-entering the area.
Our process uses low level pesticides and is safe for your home, family, and pets.
During heat treatment, we use specialist high-powered indirect-fired heaters to safely and effectively raise a room’s temperature to between 49°C and 60°C, maintaining this lethal range for a sustained period.
These industrial-grade heaters are calibrated to reach the exact temperatures needed to eliminate bed bugs at every stage of their life cycle, including eggs, which are often resistant to chemical treatments.
Heat treatment works by breaking down the essential proteins and enzymes that bed bugs rely on to live. This effective method targets the pest at a biological level, making it highly effective for complete eradication. Unlike chemical treatments, which often fail to reach deep hiding spots, heat penetrates every crack and crevice — leaving bed bugs with nowhere to escape.

You’ll receive a simple preparation form with clear instructions, including which items to remove, how to declutter key areas, and which personal items (like clothing or bedding) may need to be washed on a hot cycle before or after treatment.

Most bed bug heat treatments are completed within 4 to 8 hours, depending on the size of the property and the severity of the infestation. You’ll be back to normal before you know it.
Larger homes may require more than one day for successful treatment, and commercial properties will vary based on the number of rooms or areas that need treating. Check our our guide on how long does bed bug heat treatments take.
The final cost depends on factors like the property size, the number of rooms being treated, and the severity of the infestation. For a standard room in London, our bed bug heat treatments typically start from £350.
While the initial cost can be higher than a single chemical spray, our heat treatment is a single-visit solution that eradicates the entire infestation, including all eggs. This makes it far more cost-effective long-term than multiple chemical treatments that often fail. We provide a firm, itemised quote after a quick assessment.
Heat treatment uses high temperatures monitored with temperature sensors to kill bugs at all life stages. It’s an environmentally friendly method that avoids chemical residues—ideal for sensitive homes and commercial premises. However, for best results, heat must be applied correctly, as missed zones or cold spots can allow bed bugs or other insects to survive. Read our guide here.
Our process uses specialist, high-powered heaters to safely raise the temperature of the entire room to between 49°C and 60°C. This sustained, lethal heat penetrates deep into all furniture, mattresses, walls, and hidden crevices that chemical sprays miss.
This method is proven to kill all life stages of bed bugs—from adults and nymphs to the chemical-resistant eggs—all in a single visit. We use remote thermal sensors to monitor temperatures in real-time, ensuring the heat reaches every single spot for a complete and guaranteed eradication.

Yes, our heat treatment process is one of the safest and most effective methods available. Unlike chemical sprays, it’s an environmentally-friendly solution that leaves no harmful residues, making it completely safe for your family, pets, and property once the treatment is complete.
Most household belongings, including furniture, beds, and electronics, are safe during the treatment. However, we provide a simple preparation guide detailing the few items that must be removed, such as aerosol cans, candles, medications, and certain delicate items, to ensure they are not damaged.
Bed bugs at all life stages—including adults, nymphs, and eggs—die when exposed to a sustained temperature of 49°C or higher.
To ensure a complete and successful treatment, our professional-grade heaters raise the entire room to a lethal range of 49°C to 60°C. This temperature is then held for several hours, allowing the heat to penetrate deep into mattresses, walls, and furniture. This critical “soak” period ensures that even the most hidden or well-insulated eggs are destroyed, which is essential for preventing a re-infestation.
Heat treatment is a superior solution for two main reasons: effectiveness and safety.
Unlike chemical sprays, which often require multiple visits and struggle to kill pesticide-resistant eggs, a single heat treatment eradicates all life stages in one day. The heat penetrates deep into mattresses, furniture, and wall voids, destroying the entire infestation—including the eggs—which is critical for preventing a recurrence.
Furthermore, our heat process is an environmentally-friendly, chemical-free solution. It leaves no toxic residues behind, making your home or business immediately safe for children, pets, and guests. This also completely bypasses the common problem of bed bug resistance to traditional pesticides.
