Emergency response

Urgent Bed Bug Problems Need Immediate Action

If you’ve just discovered bed bugs in your home, hotel, or rental property — time is critical. Bed bugs spread quickly, cause sleepless nights, and can severely damage your reputation if left untreated. At ThermoPest, we understand the urgency and provide emergency bed bug removal services with same-day or next-day availability in London and across the South of England.

Whether you’ve been bitten overnight, found bugs on your mattress, or had a complaint from a guest or tenant — we’re here to act fast.

Two-stage treatment

Fast, Two-Stage Bed Bug Treatment

Our emergency bed bug service follows a proven two-step process designed to deliver rapid relief, followed by a full heat treatment to clear the infestation.

Step 1:

Emergency Knockdown Treatment (Same or Next Day)

The first stage focuses on immediate relief. Our technician will carry out a spray and steam knockdown treatment, targeting the most active and visible areas such as beds, mattresses, headboards, sofas, and cracks and crevices near sleeping zones.

Steam kills on contact — ideal for beds, mattresses, and fabrics
Residual spray leaves behind a treatment barrier that continues working
No need to vacate the property for extended periods
Suitable for residential and hospitality settings

This initial treatment won’t kill every bed bug or egg — but it significantly reduces visible activity, calms the situation, and prepares the property for a full follow-up treatment.

Step 2:

Full Heat Treatment (10–14 Days Later)

Our second visit is a comprehensive heat treatment, our most thorough way to get rid of bed bugs. Using professional heating systems, we raise the temperature in all treated rooms to 50–60°C and hold that heat until the hardest-to-reach spots stay above 50°C, so the heat reaches bed bugs hiding deep in furniture, sockets, and wall voids.

Kills bed bugs at all life stages, including eggs
Heat-led, with minimal chemical use; everyone, including pets, stays out during treatment, with re-entry usually after 2 hours, unless your technician advises otherwise
Reaches places sprays and powders can’t
Backed by our 12-Week Treatment Guarantee when applied to all necessary areas

We usually schedule this visit 10–14 days after the knockdown, allowing time for any remaining eggs to hatch so the heat treatment can kill them
