Where to Start
- Bites but no bugs spotted? Book an inspection first, or a dog search when the problem looks recent.
- Run a licensed rental or an inn? A dog can sweep several rooms between guests.
- Caring for an older parent? Ask which method needs the least lifting and moving.
- Prefer no pesticide in the bedroom? Heat, or steam on the mattress and chairs, may suit you.
- Bugs in every room or back after treatment? Ask whether fumigation is worth it.
