For multi-unit buildings, we treat the affected unit and inspect the adjacent units, because bed bugs travel through walls and shared spaces.

A whole-room heat treatment runs $1,500 to $3,500 in Red Bluff, with chemical treatments from $300 to $900. The exact quote depends on the size of the room and the severity of the infestation.

Most infestations are eliminated in one to two treatments, with a follow-up inspection to confirm. Heat treatment typically works in a single visit; chemical treatment may need a second pass.
