Fecal spotting along the mattress seam and a musty odor near the headboard are the two clearest signs of an established Cimex lectularius population — our inspection starts exactly there. Because bed bugs don't fly or jump, every infestation has a traceable entry point, and finding it is part of preventing a repeat case.
We check mattress seams, box spring corners, and outlet covers with a flashlight and interceptor traps before quoting treatment.


Our Bed Bug Control crew is specifically trained on thermal remediation equipment, not just chemical application.
Bed bug calls get scheduled quickly since populations spread between rooms — and sometimes between units — within days.
Your quote covers the full multi-visit protocol upfront — initial treatment, follow-up, and clearance check — not billed separately per visit.
We use thermal remediation equipment capable of raising room temperature high enough to kill bed bugs at every life stage, including eggs.
Thermal remediation penetrates mattresses, box springs, and wall voids that liquid treatment often misses.
We apply residual product specifically to harborage points identified during inspection, not a blanket room fogging.
Encasements trap any remaining bugs inside and prevent new ones from establishing in the mattress seams.
Monitoring devices let us confirm population decline objectively instead of relying on guesswork at the follow-up.
We work directly with property managers to schedule multi-unit treatment with minimal tenant disruption.
A dedicated clearance visit confirms zero activity before we consider the case closed, not just an assumption after treatment.

Tell dispatch which rooms are affected so the technician arrives prepared with the right equipment for your case size.
A technician arrives with inspection tools, interceptors, and either heat or chemical treatment equipment ready to go.
Inspection determines whether heat treatment, targeted chemical treatment, or a combination fits your specific case.
Initial treatment happens the same visit, with a two-week follow-up and final clearance check built into your plan.
Two visits later and the interceptor traps showed zero activity. The follow-up inspection gave us real peace of mind, not just a guess.
As a property manager, having a company that handles multi-unit protocol correctly saved us from a much bigger spread.
We tried foggers ourselves first and just scattered the bugs into other rooms. The professional heat treatment actually reached the wall voids where they'd spread to.
Traveled a lot for work and picked up bed bugs from a hotel stay without realizing it until they'd spread to the bedroom. The technician traced it back to the suitcase itself.

Nex Pest Control dispatches bed bug-certified technicians throughout Essex Junction and nearby communities, with heat and monitoring equipment stocked and ready. We service single-family homes, apartments, and multi-unit buildings across Essex Junction with the same discreet arrival and unmarked vehicles.

We confirm visually with a flashlight inspection of mattress seams, box spring corners, and nearby furniture joints.
We'll recommend the right approach based on room count and severity during the free inspection, not a one-size-fits-all default.
Most cases follow a three-visit protocol: initial treatment, a two-week recheck, and a final clearance inspection.
In most cases, treatment plus a certified encasement lets you keep the mattress instead of replacing it.
That's why we recommend inspecting adjoining units in multi-family buildings before treating just one apartment.
Minimal prep is needed for heat treatment, but chemical treatment benefits from some furniture clearance we'll walk you through.
