Emergency Bed Bug Heat Treatment Handsworth B20
Handsworth (B20) sits along Birmingham's busy northern corridor with a mix of Edwardian terraces, inter-war semis and ex-council blocks. Adjoining party walls and roof voids let bed bugs spread between properties quickly, so single-visit heat treatment is the only reliable fix.
Bed Bug Exterminator Handsworth — How We Work in B20
On a typical Handsworth job, two technicians arrive with Acrotherm EC85 heaters, ducting and FLIR thermal cameras. The property is brought up from ambient to a sustained core temperature of +141 °F, held long enough to penetrate mattresses, sofas, skirtings, floor voids and the wall cavities common in B20's older stock. Eggs, nymphs and adults die in the same visit. There is no spraying, no residue, and nothing to re-spray a fortnight later.
