(Newswire.net — January 29, 2016) Houston, TEXAS — Texas Bugs-Or-Us, a professional pest control company in business since 2001, continues to reinforce the effectiveness and safety of its professional bed bug heat treatment services. Propane heaters and heat treating trailers are the alternatives to conducing potentially dangerous DIY work. In fact, there have been many incidents as of late, related to people trying to kill bed bugs on their own, leading to property damage and severe injuries.
According to the Detroit Free Press, a woman put her stove and oven on, and left for the day, to quell her fear of bed bugs. A massive fire resulted after she returned and poured rubbing alcohol on the floor. The roof of a 48-unit apartment building caved and a total of five people were hospitalized. Firefighters on the scene were injured as well.
“Killing bed bugs is not a DIY project,” said Calvin Thigpen of Texas Bugs-Or-Us. “Nor can you just depend on anyone billing themselves as a professional. Trusting a reputable, experienced pest control company can not only ensure you are bed bug free, but also have a home and remain uninjured once the bugs are gone.”
In 2013, questionable treatments led to fires in Woodbury, New Jersey, where a man set his house afire while trying to kill the bed bugs himself, according to NBC New York. In New Hampshire, a three-family house burned down. This past October, a do-it-yourself bed bug oven for placing infested items inside triggered a fire at an Abilene, Texas drug rehabilitation center.
The Case for Top-Notch Professional Bed Bug Heat Treatment
These are just a few examples of recent incidents. Texas Bugs-Or-Us offers residential bed bug heat treatments using a safe direct-fired propane heater. The portable device is operated by trained experts. It simply raises the ambient temperature of a room high enough to be lethal for insects. Any hiding location is heated as the hot air disperses. With a single treatment, bed bugs are eliminated, rather than an inexperienced person taking chances and risking serious injury and damage.
In addition, TBOU has added a bed bug heat treatment trailer to its arsenal. The vehicle includes portable heaters and generators. It is able to reach homes in the Houston area quickly. Various amenities are included such as a tire replacement kit so technicians can make their calls even if the truck breaks down on the way.
Thigpen added, “When it comes to bed bugs, it’s better to be safe than sorry. Let us eliminate bed bugs and protect your home without any unnecessary risk.”
