What a bed bug survey entails
A bed bug survey is a thorough, room-by-room inspection carried out by a trained technician to confirm the presence, extent, and location of an infestation. During the visit, we examine mattresses, bed frames, headboards, skirting boards, electrical outlets, and soft furnishings using torches, magnification tools, and specialist detection equipment where needed. We look for live bed bugs at every life stage, shed skins, faecal spotting, and eggs clustered in cracks and crevices. The technician also identifies harbourage points, assesses the level of clutter, and checks adjoining rooms that may have been affected. At the end of the survey, you receive a clear written report outlining the findings, the recommended heat treatment plan tailored to your property, preparation instructions, and a fixed-price quote — with no obligation to proceed.

Disclaimer & important information
Please read carefully before booking your heat treatment.
- Heat treatment effectiveness depends on proper preparation. Items not removed or rooms not decluttered may shield bed bugs from lethal temperatures.
- We cannot guarantee 100% eradication in properties with structural issues (e.g. severe draughts, open cavity walls, or inaccessible voids) that prevent uniform heat distribution.
- Re-infestation from external sources (adjoining flats, shared housing, or reintroduced infested items) is not covered under our standard guarantee.
- Our guarantee covers follow-up treatment only within the stated period and does not extend to consequential damages, accommodation costs, or replacement of personal property.
- To activate the 6-month bed bug guarantee we require time-stamped video evidence of live bed bugs before we will carry out a follow-up visit.
- All treatment decisions are made at the discretion of the attending technician based on site conditions and health & safety assessments.
