Fecal spotting along the mattress seam and a musty odor near the headboard are the two clearest signs of an established Cimex lectularius population — our inspection starts exactly there. Because bed bugs don't fly or jump, every infestation has a traceable entry point, and finding it is part of preventing a repeat case.
We check mattress seams, box spring corners, and outlet covers with a flashlight and interceptor traps before quoting treatment.


Our Bed Bug Control crew is specifically trained on thermal remediation equipment, not just chemical application.
We can often schedule inspection within 24 to 48 hours given how fast an untreated infestation spreads.
Pricing is based on room count and infestation severity, quoted in full before treatment begins.
We use thermal remediation equipment capable of raising room temperature high enough to kill bed bugs at every life stage, including eggs.
Thermal remediation penetrates mattresses, box springs, and wall voids that liquid treatment often misses.
For localized infestations, targeted chemical treatment on baseboards, seams, and cracks can be more practical than whole-room heat.
Encasements trap any remaining bugs inside and prevent new ones from establishing in the mattress seams.
Monitoring devices let us confirm population decline objectively instead of relying on guesswork at the follow-up.
We work directly with property managers to schedule multi-unit treatment with minimal tenant disruption.
The final inspection checks interceptors and previously active harborage points specifically before sign-off.

Tell dispatch which rooms are affected so the technician arrives prepared with the right equipment for your case size.
A technician arrives with inspection tools, interceptors, and either heat or chemical treatment equipment ready to go.
We confirm live activity or casings, assess room count and severity, and quote the full multi-visit protocol upfront.
Guarantee coverage means continued activity after the clearance window gets addressed at no additional charge.
Two visits later and the interceptor traps showed zero activity. The follow-up inspection gave us real peace of mind, not just a guess.
As a property manager, having a company that handles multi-unit protocol correctly saved us from a much bigger spread.
We tried foggers ourselves first and just scattered the bugs into other rooms. The professional heat treatment actually reached the wall voids where they'd spread to.
Traveled a lot for work and picked up bed bugs from a hotel stay without realizing it until they'd spread to the bedroom. The technician traced it back to the suitcase itself.

Nex Pest Control dispatches bed bug-certified technicians throughout St. Gabriel and nearby communities, with heat and monitoring equipment stocked and ready. Coverage extends to hotels and short-term rentals across our St. Gabriel service area, where discretion matters just as much as treatment quality.

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.
In most cases, treatment plus a certified encasement lets you keep the mattress instead of replacing it.
Yes, which is why property-wide coordination matters — treating one unit while ignoring neighbors often means reinfestation.
Minimal prep is needed for heat treatment, but chemical treatment benefits from some furniture clearance we'll walk you through.
