Local bed bug specialists
ThermoPest provides specialist bed bug heat treatment in West Sussex for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, hotels and accommodation providers, with local coverage including Crawley, Worthing and Chichester. We treat bed bugs in homes, flats, rented properties, hotels and visitor accommodation, adapting the treatment plan to the property layout and the areas where activity has been found. West Sussex combines commuter and rental properties around Crawley with coastal homes and visitor accommodation around Worthing and Chichester.
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
Our bed bug heat treatment process is the same whether you’re in a Crawley rental near Gatwick or a coastal property in Worthing — thorough, discreet and completed in a single visit.
Our technicians raise the temperature of your property to between 49°C and 60°C, maintaining that lethal range for a sustained period. This level of heat penetrates deep into mattresses, furniture joints, skirting boards and wall voids — every place bed bugs and their eggs hide.
Unlike chemical treatments which can miss hidden life stages and require multiple visits, heat treatment kills bed bugs and eggs at every life stage. Most homes are treated in a day, you can move back in 2 hours after we finish, and you are covered by our 12-week guarantee.

Local insight
West Sussex faces a distinctive bed bug risk driven by its geography. The presence of Gatwick Airport in the north of the county creates a high-travel environment — airline crew, airport workers and frequent flyers are among the highest-risk groups for bed bug spread, and the dense hotel and rental accommodation corridor around Crawley reflects this.
The county’s popular coastal resorts at Worthing, Bognor Regis and Littlehampton attract significant summer tourism with the associated hotel and holiday accommodation demand. Chichester’s university and arts festival profile adds further year-round visitor footfall.
If you’ve noticed bites, blood spots on bedding or small dark marks on your mattress seams, don’t wait. Early treatment is faster, less disruptive and less expensive than dealing with a fully established infestation.
Pricing
Whole-property bed bug heat treatment in West Sussex starts from £895. Your final quotation depends on the property’s size and layout, the extent of the infestation, access, preparation requirements and any areas requiring additional treatment.
Our treatment combines professional heat equipment with live temperature monitoring to target bed bugs at every life stage, including adults, nymphs and eggs. Where required, we also use targeted residual treatments and monitoring to help reduce the risk of surviving activity. Qualifying whole-property treatments include a 12-week treatment guarantee, subject to terms. See our bed bug treatment pricing for current prices, what is included and full guarantee information.
Reviews
Gavin from ThermoPest was brilliant to deal with and the situation was dealt with.

I’ve tried to get rid of the bed bugs (after unfortunately bringing them back from Thailand) myself, and I tried two other companies who cane out and sprayed and this was unsuccessful. I contacted these and someone came out the next day to survey my home and the treatment was booked in for a few days time. Safe to say I no longer have bed bugs and they even give you a guarantee. Thanks James and team.

I was mortified when I found bed bugs in my flat after a holiday. ThermoPest came to the rescue with their heat treatment, and I couldn’t believe how thorough they were. The technician, Dave, explained everything and put me at ease. Within a day, my home was bug-free, and it’s been three months with no sign of them.

Very good service for a very nasty job. Would be very happy to recommend them to friends and colleagues.

We cover the whole of West Sussex including Crawley, Worthing, Chichester, Horsham, Bognor Regis, Haywards Heath, Burgess Hill and the surrounding area.
West Sussex has above-average bed bug risk driven by Gatwick Airport in the north of the county — one of the UK's busiest international airports — and a significant coastal tourism economy around Worthing, Bognor Regis and Chichester. Crawley's large transient workforce population serving Gatwick creates high-turnover rental accommodation in the town, while the university town of Chichester adds student rental demand.
Yes — Crawley has a large rental market catering to Gatwick airport workers and the wider workforce. We work with landlords and letting agents across West Sussex. See our Letting Agents page for more.
In most cases the landlord is responsible for treating a pre-existing infestation, while tenants may be liable if they introduced the infestation after moving in. West Sussex has a mix of Gatwick corridor rentals, coastal tourist accommodation and rural properties — landlord responsibility questions come up across all three. We provide full treatment documentation for both parties. Call us for impartial advice on your specific situation.
Yes significantly. Gatwick is one of Europe's busiest airports and serves over 40 million passengers annually. Airline crew, airport workers and frequent flyers represent one of the highest-risk groups for bed bug spread. Hotels in the Gatwick corridor, accommodation in Crawley and properties of frequent travellers across West Sussex all face elevated risk.
