Bed Bug Heat Treatment Southampton & Hampshire
Bed bug infestation? Dr Pest Solutions provides chemical-free bed bug heat treatment that kills bed bugs and their eggs in a single visit. We cover Southampton, Hampshire, Dorset, Wiltshire, Surrey, Berkshire, and West and East Sussex – around 100 miles from our Southampton base.
Signs of a bed bug infestation
Bed bugs are good at hiding, but they leave clues. Look out for:
- Itchy bites, often in lines or clusters, that appear overnight
- Small blood spots on sheets, pillowcases and mattresses
- Shed skins and tiny pale eggs in mattress seams, bed frames and furniture joints
- A sweet, musty smell in heavily infested rooms
How bed bug heat treatment works
We use specialist equipment to heat the affected rooms to around 56°C, a temperature that is lethal to bed bugs. The heat reaches into mattresses, furniture, cracks and crevices, and every life stage – eggs, nymphs and adults – dies. Heat treatment of the whole house or flat comes with a pest-free guarantee of up to 6 months; single-room treatments are not covered, because bed bugs spread between rooms.
There are no toxic sprays and no chemical residue, so it is safe for families and pets, and the room can be used again the same day.
Heat treatment for moths, fleas, carpet beetles and other insects
The same chemical-free heat treatment also kills clothes moths, fleas, carpet beetles, cockroaches and other crawling insects at every life stage, in homes, rental properties and businesses.

Bed bug FAQ
Is heat treatment better than spraying?
Heat reaches every life stage, including eggs that sprays often miss, and it leaves no chemical residue. That is why it usually solves the problem in a single visit instead of several repeat treatments.
How long does it take?
Most rooms are treated within a single day. We will give you a time estimate when we assess your property.
Do I need to leave home?
You only need to stay out of the room being treated while it is heated. Because no toxic sprays are used, you can use the room again the same day.
Do you also treat fleas, moths and carpet beetles?
Yes. Heat treatment is also effective against fleas, clothes moths and carpet beetles.
