Heat Chamber Treatment for Bed Bugs

Heat Chamber Treatment

Solution Cimex offers you a heat treatment service for items and furniture using heat chambers. The heat chamber is also known as the thermal chamber.

This treatment carried out using heat chambers can be particularly useful in circumstances where it is impossible to perform a conventional treatment due to a time constraint. It’s also useful for people who want to use heat without resorting to a thermal treatment of an entire room or house.

It’s possible to opt for the heat chamber treatment to eliminate bed bugs in furniture and items before a move (beds, mattresses, bed bases, dressers, sofas, chairs, etc.). The goal of this operation is to limit the chances of transmitting the infestation to the new living environment as much as possible.

Advantages of the bed bug heat treatment with heat chambers :

It’s effective against all stages of development of the bed bug.
It’s eco-friendly, since the heat-treated items don’t need to be treated with insecticide.
It lets you treat several items at once. For example, you can combine a sofa, a mattress, and a television set.
Light and easy to install, the chamber lets you treat the chosen items on the spot to effectively eliminate the bed bugs that might be hiding there.
Sensors placed inside allow the technicians to ensure the effectiveness of the operation.
The result is immediate.
The thermal chamber treatment is generally less expensive than a heat treatment of an entire house.

How does the heat chamber treatment work?

The heat chamber is simple to use. After placing it on the ground in the desired location, the pest management technician will place the items to be treated inside it. They will then place a few sensors that will be used to verify the temperature during the treatment. After that, they will reseal the heat chamber using the zipper and turn on the heat generator. Any bed bugs will therefore be trapped inside. The heat generator will then drive up the temperature in the chamber to over 50°C for two to four hours. That way, the bed bugs will be exterminated. After that, the furniture will be able to be transported to its new location.

For whom is the heat chamber treatment beneficial?

The heat chamber is a method particularly well suited to items with confined spaces where the application of products is difficult, even impossible, as well as upholstered furniture. It’s also useful for buildings and institutions that sometimes welcome at-risk customers: retirement homes, hotels, motels, hostels, bed and breakfasts, halfway houses, family-type resources, daycares, homeless shelters, hospitals, etc.
