Heat Treatment
Heat Treatment — Safe and Effective Pest Elimination Using High Temperatures
Heat treatment is a chemical-free pest control method in which a room, furniture or items are heated to 50–60°C. At this temperature, all pest life stages — eggs, larvae, pupae and adults — are destroyed.
Heat treatment is environmentally friendly, safe for humans and pets, and leaves no chemical residues.

Room treatment
1. Whole-Room Heat Treatment
How it works
How it works
Whole-room heat treatment is the most effective method when pests have spread across a larger area — bedrooms, living rooms, office spaces or other zones.
- The room is sealed and equipped with professional heaters.
- The temperature is gradually increased to 50–60°C.
- Even heat circulation is ensured to reach hidden areas and cracks.
- Treatment lasts 4–8 hours, depending on room size and infestation level.
- After cooling, the room can be used immediately.
This method is particularly recommended for bed bug elimination.
Advantages
- eliminates pests at all life stages
- reaches cracks and voids where chemicals cannot
- no repeat treatment needed if recommendations are followed
- no chemical residues
- safe for humans and pets
Where is it suitable?
Whole-room heat treatment is suitable for bedrooms, living rooms, office spaces and other areas where pests have spread across a larger zone.
Furniture
2. Heat Treatment for Individual Furniture
Object treatment
How it works
If pests are localised in a specific item — a bed, sofa, chair, wardrobe or other furniture — heat treatment can be applied directly to that object without heating the entire room.
- The furniture is placed in a specialised heat-treatment chamber or treated on-site.
- The temperature is raised to 50–60°C, ensuring complete pest elimination.
- Treatment lasts 1–3 hours, depending on the size of the item.
This method is especially effective when bed bugs or fleas are confined to a single piece of furniture.
Advantages
- ideal for sofas, mattresses and bed frames
- no need to move or empty the entire room
- fast and highly effective
- safe for textiles and furniture materials
