Detailed Service
Thorough Inspection and Assessment
Our bed bug extermination process begins with a thorough inspection of your property. This allows us to identify the extent of the infestation, locate all hiding places, and determine the most effective treatment plan. We use specialized tools and techniques to detect even the smallest signs of bed bug activity.
Customized Treatment Plans
We don't believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Based on our inspection, we develop a customized treatment plan that is tailored to your specific needs. This may include a combination of methods such as:
- Heat Treatment: Using specialized equipment to raise the temperature in the affected areas to lethal levels for bed bugs.
- Insecticide Application: Applying targeted insecticides to cracks, crevices, and other hiding places.
- Steam Treatment: Using high-temperature steam to kill bed bugs and their eggs on contact.
- Vacuuming: Removing visible bed bugs and debris from your property.
Preventative Measures
After the initial treatment, we will provide you with recommendations for preventing future infestations. This may include:
- Mattress Encasements: Installing bed bug-proof mattress encasements to protect your mattress and box spring.
- Regular Vacuuming: Vacuuming your carpets, rugs, and upholstery regularly.
- Sealing Cracks and Crevices: Sealing any cracks or crevices in your walls, floors, and furniture.
Follow-Up Inspections
We offer follow-up inspections to ensure that the bed bug infestation has been completely eliminated. This may include additional treatments if necessary.
Understanding Bed Bug Behavior
A crucial aspect of effective bed bug extermination is understanding their behavior. Bed bugs are nocturnal pests that feed on human blood. They are attracted to warmth and carbon dioxide, making them adept at finding their hosts while they sleep. They typically hide in cracks and crevices in mattresses, box springs, bed frames, and other furniture near where people sleep.

Signs You Need Our Services
Unexplained Bites
One of the most common signs of a bed bug infestation is the presence of unexplained bites on your skin, often in a line or cluster. These bites may be itchy and irritating, and they can sometimes cause an allergic reaction.
If you're waking up with bites, even after changing detergents and soaps, bed bugs could be the culprit. Our extermination service targets bed bug hiding spots to ensure we eliminate them.
Blood Stains on Bedding
Another telltale sign of bed bugs is the presence of small blood stains on your sheets, pillowcases, or mattress. These stains are often caused by bed bugs being crushed after feeding.
Spotting blood stains is an indicator of their recent activity. Ant & Rodent Pest Control Chicago will assess your mattresses, linens, and bedroom to find their harborage sites.
Dark Spots on Mattress or Furniture
Bed bugs also leave behind dark, fecal spots on mattresses, bedding, and furniture. These spots may appear as small, black dots or smears.
These spots are undigested blood. With our services, we'll provide a deep clean and treatment to remove the spots, remove the infestation, and protect your bedding.
Seeing Live Bed Bugs

Musty Odor
A heavy infestation can produce an unpleasant, musty odor. This scent is caused by pheromones released by the bugs.
A bed bug's musty scent is a symptom of a significant issue. Allow our bed bug extermination service to target the source and reduce any lingering odors.
Discarded Skins
Bed bugs shed their skin as they grow. Finding these skins is another sign of infestation.
