AAA Bed Bug

What to know and look for

STEP 1 Measure your space.

BED BUGS take 16-24 hours to eradicate. DO NOT RUSH YOUR TREATMENT.

If you want to speed your treatment, get a bigger package than your square footage calls for. Note, calculate the square footage of the area that needs treatment, not the whole house size.

LOOK THROUGH THE LIST BELOW before you calculate. EVERYTHING on the NEEDS MORE HEAT list would require an additional 50 sq ft or so.
