Bed Bug Heat Treatment in Quebec City

The specialized companies referred through our platform use heat treatment, a proven method aimed at completely eliminating bed bugs and their eggs during a full intervention. Unlike traditional chemical treatments that may leave toxic residues, the thermal approach is fast, environmentally responsible, and allows normal activities to resume according to the protocol applied.

Bed Bug Infestations in Quebec City: A Growing Issue

The Quebec City region has experienced a significant increase in reported cases since 2015. Dense neighborhoods such as Old Quebec, Saint-Roch, and Limoilou are particularly affected. Infestations often peak during the summer and moving season. When left untreated, bed bugs can spread quickly throughout an entire building, creating complex situations for property owners and managers.

Why Heat Treatment Outperforms Chemical Methods

Heat treatment acts on bed bugs at all stages of development (eggs, nymphs, and adults) by raising the temperature to approximately 56–60°C for several hours. This method enables complete elimination without fostering resistance, unlike chemical insecticides, to which a significant proportion of bed bugs in Quebec are now resistant.

From Inspection to a Return to Normal: How a Complete Intervention Typically Unfolds

When an infestation occurs, the priority is not only to eliminate visible insects, but to treat the entire space in a structured and methodical way. The process usually begins with a careful inspection: bedding, mattress seams, box springs, wall cracks, and hard-to-access areas are examined to assess the true extent of the problem. This step helps adapt the intervention to the type of property, whether it is a family apartment, a rental building, or a hotel room.

Once the situation is assessed, the area is prepared to ensure proper isolation and controlled air circulation. Sensors and thermometers may be installed to precisely monitor the rise in temperature. Heat is gradually introduced, without chemical products, to reach a level capable of affecting insects and their eggs, even in hidden crevices. Throughout the process, the assigned specialist follows a strict protocol designed to ensure the safety of occupants, including children and pets.

After several hours, the temperature is lowered in a controlled manner. Follow-up is then recommended: verification of sensitive areas, prevention advice, and best practices to reduce the risk of recurrence. This comprehensive approach aims for long-term results and a rapid return to a healthy, functional environment.
