Bed Bug Inspection in Central Florida

Bed bugs are increasingly resistant to common pesticides, which is why heat treatment (whole-room 135ยฐF+ for several hours) is now the gold standard. We perform inspection and species ID, then refer to a vetted heat-treatment partner if confirmed. We don’t do the treatment ourselves โ€” we tell you the truth.

Why We're Honest About What We Don't Do

Most pest companies will quote a bed bug treatment regardless of whether they have the right equipment, because bed bug jobs are profitable. We won’t. Here’s why heat treatment matters and why we refer:

  • Pyrethroid resistance is widespread. The EPA documented bed bug resistance to common pyrethroid pesticides over a decade ago. Chemical-only treatment routinely takes 3โ€“5 visits and still misses populations.
  • Heat kills all life stages โ€” including eggs. Whole-room heat at 135ยฐF sustained for several hours kills eggs, nymphs, and adults simultaneously. No chemical residue. Single treatment.
  • Heat treatment requires specialized equipment. Industrial heaters, fans, and temperature monitoring across the entire room. We don’t carry it. Companies that do can charge premium for it because it actually works.

We provide free inspection and species ID, give you straight answers about what you have, and connect you with a vetted treatment partner if needed. No hidden upcharges, no pretending we can do something we can’t.

Why Heat Treatment Works Best

Bed bugs are increasingly resistant to common pyrethroid pesticides. Whole-room heat treatment (135ยฐF+ for several hours) kills all life stages โ€” eggs, nymphs, adults โ€” without chemical residue. It’s the gold standard but requires specialized equipment.

What Customers Say

Real reviews from Central Florida homeowners we’ve helped.

Heard scratching above our bedroom for two weeks. Two other companies wanted to spray pesticide and call it done. Central Florida Trapper actually went into the attic, found the roof rat entry, sealed it, and replaced the contaminated insulation.

โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…

A raccoon tore through our soffit and was raising kits. They located the babies, reunited them with mom outside, sealed everything, cleaned the attic. Done in three days. Insurance paid most because the paperwork was so thorough.

โ€” Mike D.

Apopka, FL

โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…

Same-day for a snake on our pool deck. Turned out to be a non-venomous black racer, but they explained the difference, removed it safely, and didn’t charge us a panic fee. Will absolutely call again.

Both. One-time treatments for active issues, and scheduled programs (monthly, bi-monthly, quarterly) for prevention. We don’t lock you into multi-year contracts.
