Specialized Bed Bug Control in Rutgers University-Livingston Campus, NJ

A technician looks for live insects, casings, or fecal spotting on seams before confirming — bites alone aren't reliable proof.

It depends on infestation size and layout — heat reaches wall voids and furniture in one session, while chemical treatment suits smaller, localized cases.

Most cases follow a three-visit protocol: initial treatment, a two-week recheck, and a final clearance inspection.

Usually not — encasement traps remaining bugs and prevents new ones from nesting, so replacement is rarely necessary.

That's why we recommend inspecting adjoining units in multi-family buildings before treating just one apartment.

We'll send simple prep instructions — bagging laundry and clearing floor space — specific to whether it's heat or chemical treatment.
