Hiring a Bed Bug Exterminator in Tempe

Calling in a bed bug exterminator in Tempe typically begins with an inspection, not a spray. The technician checks the mattress seams, box spring and bed frame before anything else, then works outward to nightstands, baseboards, outlet covers and upholstered chairs. What the inspector finds shapes the plan, the number of rooms involved and the price. Many jobs need a second visit a couple of weeks later, because eggs can outlast the first treatment. Before you agree to anything, get the plan in writing, including what you need to prepare and what the follow-up visit covers.

Exterminators For Bed Bugs in Tempe: What to Know

Dry desert air does not stop bed bugs, because they live in bedding and furniture indoors. Southwest inspectors check the same places as anywhere else, and many calls are tied to rentals and travel. In the denser parts of Tempe, shared walls and older buildings let these spread between units.

Calls about bed bug problems come from every part of Tempe, including Continental Tempe, McClintock Manor and Tempe Cascade.

How the Job Is Done

• Inspection. The technician checks the mattress seams, box spring, bed frame, headboard, baseboards and outlet covers with a flashlight, often taking the bed apart. What turns up decides how many rooms are treated.
• Treatment visit. The technician carries out the plan agreed after the inspection and tells you what to leave alone afterward, such as which surfaces not to wipe and which furniture to keep in place.
• Follow-up visit. A second visit a couple of weeks later checks for new activity and treats again if needed, because eggs can hatch after the first visit.
