This page provides information on Bed Bug Heat Treatment Mississippi. We will be focusing on the importance of using heat to kill bed bugs with examples of what you can expect before and after a bed bug heat treatment in Mississippi. Bed bug heat treatment is a relatively new way to rid your home of bed bugs. Bed bug heat treatment is more of a non-invasive and chemical-free way to combat the problem. Bed Bugs infestations are on the rise in Mississippi. A study conducted by the National Pest Management Association show that bed bug infestations have increased across the country by approximately 30 percent in 2016.

Bed Bug Heat Treatment Mississippi

An infestation of bed bugs is frustrating and unpleasant.

An infestation of bed bugs is frustrating and unpleasant. It’s also a problem you may not even be aware of until it’s too late.

Bed bugs can live in your home for months before you even know they’re there, so it’s important to take precautions whenever traveling or staying at another person’s house.

Be sure to check your luggage and clothing when coming home from a trip, because bed bugs can hitchhike on clothing, luggage and other belongings.

If you have recently stayed in an establishment that allows pets (such as a hotel), check the mattress seams and headboard areas carefully for signs of bed bug activity before allowing any pets near the furniture or mattresses being treated with heat treatment methods listed below; if any signs are found, please contact us immediately so we can eliminate them prior to further infestations occurring!

The best way to eradicate bed bugs is with heat.

The best way to eradicate bed bugs is with heat. Bed bugs are highly resistant to pesticides, cold temperatures and insecticides, but they aren’t resistant to heat. Heat treatment is the most effective way of eradicating bed bugs in your home because it kills all life stages at once and leaves no room for them to come back.

And the most efficient way to heat a living space is with heat pumps.

Heat pumps, like air conditioners, use the transfer of heat to cool or heat a living space. However, they do so in reverse: instead of extracting heat from the air to cool it and then pumping that cooled air into your home, they extract heat from inside your home and transfer it outside. This process is especially efficient because it uses electricity only when transferring heat out of your home (which happens only when temperatures are cooler than that inside). It also saves on fuel costs because you don’t have to burn anything—like oil or natural gas—to produce this effect.

Convection.

Heat will be transferred to the bed bugs in three ways: convection, radiation and conduction. Convection is the movement of air. It’s used to heat up your room by blowing hot air into it from an electric heater or space heater. This method works well for heating small spaces, but is not recommended for rooms with high ceilings or large windows because it can cause drafts that can further spread bed bugs in other rooms or outside your home altogether.

Radiation is the movement of heat through empty space without any contact with objects (think sunlight). Bed bug heat treatments use this method to kill pests without having to touch them directly—a very important feature when dealing with a blood-sucking parasite!

Convection is how we breathe: warm air rushes out through our mouths while cold blood rushes into our lungs at a much slower rate via capillaries located just under our skin (it’s called “convective” because it happens as a result of differences in temperature). We don’t actually think about this process happening all day long; however, if you ever become sick and feel feverish after eating something spicy, then yes: you’re feeling those capillaries opening up wide so that more oxygen can get inside them!

Conduction.

Conduction is the transfer of heat from a solid to a liquid or gas by direct contact.

The sun’s rays are an example of conduction, as they pass through the Earth’s atmosphere and heat up objects on earth. Conduction is also how heat pumps work. The compressor in your air conditioner works by condensing gas into liquid form; the liquid absorbs energy from its surroundings, then evaporates back into gas form again when you turn off your system at night. This process works for any kind of heating appliance: boilers, radiators, waterbeds—anything that uses water as part of its operation relies heavily on conduction technology to stay warm (or cool).

Radiation.

Heat is the most effective way to kill bed bugs, as it can reach temperatures of 122 degrees Fahrenheit or more.
Heat treatment is also the fastest way to eliminate bed bugs.
Bed bug heat treatment can be a more effective alternative to pesticides, which are often ineffective and may cause adverse health effects for humans.

The first step is containment.

The first step in getting rid of bed bugs is containment. This involves sealing off each room from the rest of your home using airtight plastic and sealing off all cracks, crevices and holes in walls, furniture, flooring, windows and vents with caulk or expanding foam. You will also want to seal off electrical outlets and switches with tape or glue if they cannot be easily removed. Finally, you should seal off doorways leading into adjacent rooms (like a bathroom) with plastic wrap or another type of material that can be easily removed later without damaging the surface underneath it

Then a complete cleaning of your home or business begins.

After the initial heat treatment is complete, a thorough cleaning of your home or business begins. All furniture and carpets are taken outside and cleaned with high-strength detergents. Carpets and other floor coverings will be steam cleaned if needed. Clothing and bedding can also be cleaned if desired.

Furniture, carpets, drapes and floor coverings are taken outside to be treated by our commercial cleaners with high-strength detergents and steam cleaning machines. Even clothing and bedding can be cleaned in the process if you want that extra level of protection for your family or employees.

The cleaning is done using high-pressure steam. The temperature used is hot enough to kill bed bugs and eggs without damaging the furniture or other items. Furniture, carpets, drapes and floor coverings are taken outside to be treated by our commercial cleaners with high-strength detergents and steam cleaning machines. Even clothing and bedding can be cleaned in the process if you want that extra level of protection for your family or employees.

Next, we install our heat pumps in strategic locations and run them until every area of your home or business reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit and stays there for at least 6 hours.

Next, we install our heat pumps in strategic locations and run them until every area of your home or business reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit and stays there for at least 6 hours. This temperature is lethal to bed bugs, so they can’t survive it. After the treatment is complete, we maintain this level of heat for another 6 hours to ensure that any remaining bed bugs are killed. We also recommend leaving all doors open so that air circulates freely throughout the space while you’re getting rid of your infestation.

While this is a great way to eliminate bed bugs once and for all, it’s important that you take steps to prevent them from returning if possible. To do this:

Clean up clutter in rooms where people sleep – Bedbugs love hiding behind things like bookshelves or dressers; keep these areas clean so pests won’t have anywhere to go.
Use plastic covers on mattresses – Bedbugs can live inside mattresses; using a zipper cover will make it harder for them
