Local bed bug specialists
ThermoPest’s bed bug specialists cover Broomhill, Crookes and Burngreave and surrounding areas, providing specialist bed bug heat treatment in Sheffield for homeowners, tenants, landlords, letting agents and student-accommodation providers. We treat homes, flats, shared houses, HMOs and managed accommodation, with each job planned around the property layout and where bed bug activity is present. The University of Sheffield describes Broomhill and Crookes as neighbourhoods with large student populations, while Burngreave adds dense terraces and rental housing.
Bed bugs are our specialist area rather than one of many general pest-control services. ThermoPest is a BPCA- and NPTA-member company, and our technicians use professional heat equipment with live temperature monitoring to target adults, 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. Our technicians place temperature probes in the places bed bugs favour, such as mattress seams, bed frames, skirting boards and sofa joints, and watch the readings live so no room is left short.
A typical Sheffield job might be a three-storey student terrace in Crookes, with bedrooms on every floor and an attic room up top. We plan the heat room by room so the top floor and the ground floor reach the same temperature, and we give housemates and landlords clear preparation advice beforehand.
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
Much of Sheffield’s housing was built for its steel and cutlery workers, and long rows of Victorian and Edwardian terraces still climb the hillsides in Walkley, Hillsborough, Sharrow and Burngreave. Homes here often share party walls, cellars and loft voids, which gives bed bugs routes from one house to the next if a problem is left untreated.
The west of the city is shaped by the University of Sheffield and Sheffield Hallam University. Large terraced houses around Broomhill, Crookes and Ecclesall Road are let room by room, and the yearly cycle of tenants moving in and out, often with second-hand beds and sofas, is a common way for bed bugs to arrive unnoticed. Purpose-built student blocks and new apartments in the city centre and Kelham Island add to the rented housing mix.
Sheffield is also a busy place to visit, with football at Hillsborough and Bramall Lane, the Crucible and a steady flow of rail passengers at the Midland Main Line station. Hotels, short lets and anyone who travels often benefit from checking luggage and bedding regularly.

Pricing
Whole-property bed bug heat treatment in Sheffield 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 tall terrace with an attic bedroom or a student HMO with five or six let rooms takes more equipment and time than a two-bedroom flat, and steep streets with limited parking can affect how we set up on the day.
We confirm the price after a survey or a detailed conversation about the property, so landlords and tenants 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 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.

Thermopest came out to do a bed bug heat treatment, I was told it would get rid of the problem in one visit. However a few days after the treatment we noticed live bed bugs. I called Gavin and he was able to send back another set of technicians to complete a second treatment. Since then we have been bed bug free, I will give 5 star since dealing with Gavin helped the process to go well.

After trying sprays that didn’t work, I called ThermoPest for a bed bug removal in London. The heat treatment did the job.

Council pest control services vary and can change, so check Sheffield City Council’s website for what is currently offered. Many residents choose a specialist for heat treatment, and our guide to council vs private bed bug treatment explains the differences.
It depends on the tenancy and how the bed bugs arrived, so speak to your landlord or letting agent early and keep a record of what you have found. Our guide for when a landlord won’t treat bed bugs sets out the steps for tenants in England.
Usually, yes. Bed bugs move between bedrooms, along shared walls and into communal areas, so we normally include every room in an HMO or student let and give each housemate clear preparation advice.
They can travel through shared walls, gaps around pipes and shared loft spaces in older terraces. If a neighbour has a problem, it is worth checking your own home too; read more about bed bugs coming from neighbours.
Most treatments are completed within a day, depending on the size of the property and the number of rooms. You can usually move back in after about 2 hours, unless your technician advises otherwise.
We travel out from London to treat homes across Sheffield, so we plan each job carefully before we arrive. Qualifying treatments carry our 12-week guarantee; see our pricing and guarantee page for details.
