Bed Bug Exterminator

Bed Bugs are a terrifying blood-sucking pest in Sacramento, Roseville, Elk Grove, Rocklin, and Loomis that become a serious nuisance for home and business owners. Their primary and preferred food source is human blood. Once latched onto their host, they can feed for 5-10 days. What makes them hard to eradicate is that after feeding they can hide and survive for months to a year. Trying home remedies will only prolong your bed bug issues by allowing them to continue breeding and spreading. Female bed bugs can lay up to 500 eggs in a lifetime.

Bed bug treatment at Pointer Pest Control is a separate service rather than part of the recurring bi-monthly pest plan, and it is priced by the level of infestation: $850 at the low end, around $1,750 on an average job, and $3,500 or more for heavy infestations. Before the first treatment a homeowner receives a written preparation guide, and that preparation is not optional. It can take several hours, and treatment does not begin until it is done, because a treated room that was never prepared simply leaves the bugs somewhere else to go.

Pointer Pest Control treats bed bugs chemically, using bed-bug-specific products, and does not offer heat treatment. That is worth knowing before comparing two quotes, because a heat job and a chemical job are different services with different preparation and different schedules. It also changes how the result is judged. Pointer Pest Control does not declare a home clear on the day of the last treatment; elimination is confirmed after 30 to 60 days with no bites, no live bugs, and no fecal staining, checked by ongoing monitoring including furniture inspection and traps.
