Emergency Bed Bug Heat Treatment Portswood SO17
Portswood sits in the SO17 postcode of Hampshire. The local mix of Victorian and Edwardian terraces, 1930s semis and modern coastal developments gives bed bugs plenty of voids, skirtings and timber gaps to colonise — heat treatment reaches every one of them in a single visit where sprays repeatedly fail.
Bed Bug Exterminator Portswood — How We Work in SO17
On a typical Portswood 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 SO17'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.
