Get Rid of Bed Bugs for Good
Dealing with bed bugs can disrupt your home life and leave you feeling uncomfortable in your own space. At Preferred Pest Control, we've developed a methodical approach that targets these persistent pests where they hide. Our effective bed bug treatment in Smithville doesn't just address the symptoms—it solves the problem at its source.
Our Proven Bed Bug Elimination Process
We start with a professional inspection to locate every hiding spot:
- Comprehensive multi-visit program with three scheduled treatments spaced two weeks apart
- Advanced bio-pesticides designed for long-lasting protection
- Integrated control methods, including vacuuming, steam treatments, and protective encasements
- Targeted applications to high-risk areas where bed bugs congregate
- Follow-up visits until all signs of activity are completely eliminated
Our licensed technicians don't just spray and leave. We track progress between visits and adapt our approach as needed, ensuring your bed bug problem is solved completely, not just temporarily.
Your Bed Bug Warranty Makes All The Difference
When bed bugs strike, our multi-visit guarantee has you covered with treatment visits until they're completely gone—not just for a limited period. Many companies charge extra for return visits while we include them as part of our comprehensive program, saving you money and worry.
Our warranty even covers specific retreatment zones if bed bugs reappear, and we never leave you hanging with "one-and-done" treatments that other providers might offer.
Professional Liquid Bed Bug Treatments That Work
Our bed bug treatment process combines powerful liquid applications with innovative Aprehend® Bio-pesticide technology. This EPA-registered formula uses fungal spores that bed bugs pick up as they crawl through treated areas, effectively eliminating entire colonies within days. The residual protection continues working for up to three months, ensuring complete eradication.
Preferred Pest Control chooses Aprehend® treatments because:
- Comprehensive three-visit protocol targets all life stages
- Creates a long-lasting barrier for ongoing protection
- Strategic application reaches hidden bed bug harborages
- Works against even pesticide-resistant bed bugs
When you work with our certified bed bug exterminators, you get proven results backed by decades of experience. Our technicians understand your concerns and are ready to explain exactly how our professional bed bug treatment will solve your specific situation.
Homeowner's Guide to Bed Bug Warning Signs
Discovering bed bugs early can save you from a full-blown infestation. These nocturnal pests multiply quickly, hiding in mattress seams, furniture cracks, and even behind wallpaper during the day.
Look for these telltale signs that bed bugs have moved in:
- Small rust-colored bloodstains on sheets and pillowcases
- Dark spotting (bed bug excrement) on mattresses and nearby surfaces
- Shed skins and eggshells in mattress seams and furniture joints
- Live bed bugs in cracks, electrical outlets, and furniture crevices
- Unexplained itchy welts, often appearing in lines or clusters on the skin
- Sweet, musty odor in heavily infested rooms
Many homeowners mistake bed bug bites for other insect bites or skin conditions, allowing these persistent pests to establish larger populations. In our area, the problem can worsen during colder months when increased indoor heating creates ideal breeding conditions. Bed bugs can hitchhike on luggage, used furniture, and even clothing, making vigilance essential year-round.
