Bed Bug Exterminator in New Jersey

How our bed bug treatment works

1. Inspect: beds, headboards, nightstands, couches, baseboards, outlets and nearby rooms.
2. Treat thoroughly: beds, furniture and cracks in every affected room.
3. Follow up: eggs are protected and hatch later, so a return visit finishes the job.
4. Protect: mattress and box spring encasements, and advice on travel and used furniture.

A visit usually takes a few hours. We'll tell you how long to stay out of treated rooms.

Why North Jersey sees so many bed bugs

Bed bugs travel with people and their things, and North Jersey moves a lot of both. Garfield, Passaic, Paterson, Clifton and the Hudson County towns have dense blocks of two- and three-family homes and apartment buildings, where bed bugs can travel between units through walls, outlets and pipe chases. Commuters ride buses and trains into New York every day, students live in shared housing, and used furniture changes hands constantly. None of that has anything to do with how clean a home is. It just means the earlier you call, the smaller the job. A few bugs in one bed can usually be handled in one room; a building where bed bugs have spread for months needs several units treated and more follow-up.

If you live in an apartment, tell your landlord or building manager right away. Treating one unit while the next one still has bed bugs often means they come right back.

Apartments, hotels and businesses

Bed bugs move between units through walls and outlets, so neighboring units should be checked. We work with landlords, property managers, hotels and offices. In hotels and offices, we check rooms around the one where bed bugs were found, and can set up regular inspections so a single room never turns into a floor. Staff can be shown what to look for when changing linens. See commercial pest control and landlord and tenant pest control in NJ.
