Key Takeaways
Bed Bug Treatment in Waco, TX
Bed bug bites are not only irritating and itchy; an infestation can take a significant emotional toll with many sleepless nights. If you are looking for professional bed bug control in Waco, know that ABC Home & Commercial Services uses proven methods that get results. With ABC's help, you can feel confident knowing that these pests are gone, and you can sleep easy again.
Heat remediation treatment for bed bugs follows simple but proven scientific principles to eliminate these pests. We kill bed bugs in every stage of life by raising the temperature around them to 125 degrees. This wipes out the entire population from eggs to adults and is effective in a single treatment.
We will also apply natural and insecticidal dusts where bed bugs are likely to congregate, in areas such as baseboards and other out-of-the-way crevices.

Bed bugs are tiny insects that feed on blood during the night. At less than a quarter of an inch when fully grown (about the size of an apple seed), their smallness makes it challenging to find them. Bed bugs bite in order to feed, making them both painful and irritating unwanted house guests. Worse, a few bed bugs can turn into a multitude of bed bugs quickly. They lay four to five eggs a day with young so small that they’re difficult to see—about the size of a pinhead.
If you have a bed bug problem, the pests are almost certainly from an external source. Bed bugs do not result from sanitation problems in your home. Instead, they come into your home on luggage, clothing and other belongings from having recently stayed in hotels, apartments and even college dorms—a student who’s home for the weekend can unknowingly transport them.

Frequently Asked Questions
Despite their sneaky size, bed bugs leave clues to their presence in addition to bite symptoms–especially in mattresses and bed coverings, on bed frames, and behind headboards and baseboards. Bed bugs can crawl up to 100 feet, so you may even find telltale signs on nightstands, in drawers or behind pictures.
Once you begin to search for them, you will generally find dead bed bugs, their exoskeletons (which come off when they shed them) and dark-red spots from blood-filled fecal matter. You may also notice a sweet, musty odor.
Bed bugs do not transport disease, and their bites are not poisonous; they’re just very annoying.
According to the CDC, some people have no reaction at all to bed bug bites, while others may have a strong allergic reaction. The most common result of bed bug bites are skin irritation, itching and some redness, with some people experiencing swelling around the bites.
Reactions to bed bug bites can be immediate but in some cases it can take up to two weeks to manifest. Commonly, the bites appear in a straight line, very close together, because when disturbed while feeding, the bed bug may wait just a moment to resume and will move very little.
Tent fumigation, or “tenting”, is a highly effective solution for eliminating serious bed bug infestations. Preparation for fumigation can be extensive, requires thoughtful coordination, and follows strict safety procedures. Tenting a home for bed bugs should always be done by a professional with proper certifications and licensing in order to be performed safely and effectively.
Safety is our number one priority when treating your home. We adhere to strict guidelines set forth by the fumigant manufacturer as well as state and federal regulatory agencies. During all structural fumigations, ABC regularly monitors the fumigant levels within the structure for efficacy, as well as the air outside the structure. We use specially designed equipment capable of detecting fumigant levels as low as 1 part per million (ppm). We employ aeration times far exceeding what is required by law and confirm 0 ppm clearance levels multiple times before allowing you and your family to return to your home. Additionally, we follow all manufacturer recommendations, including not fumigating homes with attics enclosed in polyurethane spray foam insulation (PSFI).
We care about our customers, and want them to be informed about products and safe handling. For more information about gas treatment and safety measures, visit:
