Where to Start
- Bites but no sign of the bugs? Start with an inspection, or a K9 search if the case looks early.
- Opening a place that sat empty all winter? A dog team can sweep every bedroom in one short visit.
- Older relative living alone? Ask which method means the least lifting and packing.
- Prefer no pesticide on the bed? Heat, or steam on mattresses and chairs, may suit you.
- Bugs in every room, or back after a treatment? Ask whether tenting the house makes sense.
