Trusted extermination services to keep your home, business, and customers pest-free
Heat is the most thorough way to wipe out a bed bug infestation in a single visit — it kills every life stage, including the eggs that survive many chemical treatments, and it does it without pesticides. New York Exterminating delivers professional thermal remediation with monitored, even heat that reaches into every seam and void. The work is led by an Associate Certified Entomologist (ACE) licensed in structural pest control, and because we also offer K-9 detection and conventional treatment, you get an honest recommendation rather than a one-size pitch.
The question we hear most is which method to choose, so here is the straight version. Heat treatment raises the whole space to a lethal temperature and kills all life stages — adults, nymphs, and eggs — in one session, with no chemical residue, and it penetrates clutter, furniture, and electronics that sprays cannot reach. Its trade-off: it leaves no lasting residual, so it does not protect against re-introduction. Conventional chemical treatment typically needs more than one visit (because many products do not kill eggs, you must catch the next hatch), but it leaves a residual that keeps working and can be more practical for some layouts and budgets. Neither is universally “better.” We inspect first, explain the trade-offs for your situation, and sometimes recommend a combination — heat to crash the population, a residual to guard the perimeter.
In dense apartment buildings, co-ops, and hotels, bed bugs spread through clutter, furniture, and shared walls, and occupants want the problem gone fast and discreetly. A single-day heat treatment that penetrates a packed studio or a furnished hotel room and finishes in hours fits that reality — minimal product, fast turnaround, and no multi-week cycle of return visits. For heavy or widespread infestations, heat’s all-at-once, egg-killing reach is exactly what a stubborn NYC case needs.
1. Inspect. We confirm the infestation and its extent (K-9 detection available) and recommend heat, conventional, or a combination.
2. Prep guidance. We give you a clear checklist and help safeguard heat-sensitive items.
3. Monitored heat treatment. We raise the space to lethal temperature, circulate it into every void, and confirm the cold spots reach the kill threshold with sensors.
4. Verify & protect. We follow up to confirm success and advise on monitoring, encasements, and adjacent units to prevent re-introduction.

Most heat treatments are completed in a single day, and you can usually return once the space cools.
Yes — heat uses no pesticides; it is purely thermal, which is why many clients prefer it.
Yes — properly applied heat kills all life stages including eggs in one session.
We bring in specialized heaters and raise the entire space to a temperature lethal to bed bugs — roughly 120–135°F — and hold it there while fans circulate the heat into every crack, seam, and void. We monitor with wireless sensors to confirm the killing temperature reaches the cold spots where bed bugs hide. Because the lethal heat penetrates everywhere at once, it kills every life stage in a single treatment.
Yes — and that is its biggest advantage. Bed bug eggs are notoriously resistant to many chemicals, which is why conventional treatments usually require multiple visits to catch newly-hatched bugs. Properly applied heat kills all life stages, including eggs, in one session, so there is no surviving generation waiting to rebound.
Both work when done right; the best choice depends on your situation. Heat is chemical-free, penetrates clutter and electronics, and finishes in a single day — ideal when you want minimal product, a fast turnaround, or you are dealing with a heavy or widespread infestation. Conventional treatment can be more practical for certain layouts, budgets, or buildings and includes a residual that keeps working. We inspect, explain the trade-offs honestly, and recommend the right approach — sometimes a combination.
Yes, when done by professionals who manage it correctly. We protect heat-sensitive items (certain electronics, candles, aerosols, musical instruments, medications) by removing or safeguarding them beforehand, and we control the rate and distribution of heat to treat the structure without damaging it. We give you a clear prep list so the treatment is both safe and effective.
Most heat treatments are completed in a single day. We provide a specific preparation checklist — what to remove, what to leave, and how to handle sensitive items — and the better the prep, the better the result. You will be out during the treatment and can typically return the same day once the space cools.
Heat eliminates the existing infestation in the treated space, but it leaves no residual, so re-introduction is always possible in a multi-unit building or from travel. We confirm success with follow-up inspection (including K-9 detection when useful), advise on monitoring and encasements, and address adjacent units when the source is next door.
