1 (877) 862-5973Both methods are highly effective when performed correctly. Heat treatment (thermal remediation) kills all life stages in a single visit with no chemical residue, but requires more preparation and time. Chemical treatments may require 2–3 visits but can provide residual protection. We assess your specific situation and recommend the best option based on infestation severity, property layout, and your preferences.
Resistance is a real concern in pest management, which is why we rotate active ingredients and use IPM protocols that combine multiple control methods. We monitor treatment efficacy on every account and adjust our approach when needed. This rotation strategy prevents resistance development and maintains long-term effectiveness.
For most general pest treatments, you can remain home during and after treatment. For bed bug heat treatments, you'll need to vacate for 6–8 hours during the process. For fumigation treatments, a 3-day absence is required. Your technician will provide specific instructions based on your treatment type well in advance.
Results vary by pest type. Cockroach populations typically show 80–90% reduction within 72 hours of treatment, with complete elimination in 2–3 weeks. Bed bug heat treatment produces immediate results. Termite bait stations work gradually over 2–6 months as the colony feeds on and shares the bait. Ant treatments typically take 1–2 weeks for colony elimination.
