Where to Start
- Bites but no bugs found? Book a standard inspection first, or bring in a dog team for a very new case.
- More than one home on your parcel? Ask for every dwelling to be checked in the same visit.
- Rooms used by a rotating crew? Ask about inspecting between seasons while the beds are empty.
- No pesticide on beds, please? Heat, or steam on mattresses and couches, may suit you.
- Bugs in most rooms or back after a treatment? Ask whether tent fumigation fits your house.
