Local bed bug specialists
ThermoPest’s bed bug specialists cover Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch, including Boscombe, Winton and Charminster, providing specialist bed bug heat treatment in Bournemouth for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, hotels and accommodation providers. We treat homes, flats, rented properties, hotels and visitor accommodation, with each job planned around the property layout and where bed bug activity is present. Bournemouth’s mix of student rentals, flats and visitor accommodation makes prompt, discreet treatment especially relevant for landlords and accommodation operators.
Bed bugs are our specialist area rather than one of many general pest-control services. ThermoPest is a BPCA- and NPTA-member company, and our technicians use professional heat equipment with live temperature monitoring to target adults, nymphs and eggs. Our heat-led treatment plans include tailored aftercare and further treatment where required. Qualifying whole-property treatments carry a 12-week treatment guarantee, subject to the terms.

How it works
Bed bugs and their eggs die when held above about 50°C for long enough. We heat rooms to 50–60°C and hold that heat until the hardest-to-reach spots stay above 50°C. Temperature probes placed in beds, furniture and along skirting boards give live readings, so your technician can see when every area has reached and held treatment temperature.
A typical local job is a seafront guest house or a large Victorian villa in Boscombe converted into flats. We heat the affected rooms, beds and furniture, and for accommodation businesses we plan the work so rooms can go back into use as soon as possible. Most treatments are completed within a day, and guests or residents can usually move back in after about 2 hours, unless your technician advises otherwise.
We give clear preparation steps beforehand and aftercare advice afterwards. Qualifying treatments carry our 12-week guarantee. See how our heat treatment works

Local insight
Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch together form one of the best-known stretches of coast in the south of England, and the seafront brings visitors throughout the summer and well beyond it. Hotels, guest houses, holiday flats and short lets see a frequent turnover of guests, and bed bugs travel easily in luggage from one stay to the next.
Many of Bournemouth’s large Victorian and Edwardian villas, especially in Boscombe, Westbourne and around the town centre, have been converted into flats or bedsits. These buildings often share stairwells, service pipes and floor voids, so a problem in one flat can reach the next. Students at Bournemouth University and Arts University Bournemouth rent shared houses in Winton and Charminster, and tenants change over every year.
Poole and Christchurch add harbourside flats, family homes and retirement properties, where bed bugs often arrive after a trip away or with second-hand furniture. If you see bites, small blood marks on sheets or dark spots on mattress seams, act early, as a contained problem is easier to treat.

Pricing
Whole-property bed bug heat treatment across Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch starts from £895. The price depends on the size of the property, how many rooms are affected and how much furniture needs heating. A one-bedroom flat in Westbourne is a smaller job than a guest house with several letting rooms or a Winton HMO.
Access, parking and travel play a part too, from town-centre flats above shops to properties further out in Poole and Christchurch. We confirm the price once we understand the property, and qualifying treatments include our 12-week guarantee. See our bed bug treatment prices for more detail.
Reviews
I was mortified when I found bed bugs in my flat after a holiday. ThermoPest came to the rescue with their heat treatment, and I couldn’t believe how thorough they were. The technician, Dave, explained everything and put me at ease. Within a day, my home was bug-free, and it’s been three months with no sign of them.

Amazing service from James and the team. Moved into a house where there were bedbugs, James and team got rid of them and also put up with my constant texts looking for advice and reassurance. I will definitely recommend you 100%

I hired Thermopest after multiple unsuccessful attempts of having sprays with other companies. They completed the work in a single visit and I have not had an issue since. I personally think its worth the money and wish I had hired them initially. The whole team were helpful from speaking to Gavin on the phone to the team who came out to visit. I would recommend them to anyone having an issue with bed bugs. Thanks again.
Leione
An absolute nightmare getting bed bugs in one of our rental properties but Jamie and team managed to sort them out in ONE VISIT. Sooo impressed!! Worth every penny. Thanks so so much.

Council pest control services vary and can change, so check Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole (BCP) Council’s website for what it currently offers and any charges. Many people choose a specialist for heat treatment. Our guide to council vs private bed bug treatment explains the differences.
It depends on the tenancy and how the bed bugs arrived. Landlords are often responsible where an infestation was there before the tenant moved in or is spreading through the building, while a tenant may be asked to pay if they brought bed bugs in. Many lets in Boscombe and Westbourne are converted villas, so other flats in the building may need checking too. Our guide on what to do if your landlord won’t treat bed bugs sets out the steps.
