Where to Begin
- Only bites so far? Book an inspection, or a K9 search if no bug has turned up.
- Renting a room to a student? Ask for the whole house to be checked, not just the rented room.
- Prefer nothing sprayed on the beds? Heat, with steam on upholstery, is worth asking about.
- In a Country Club townhome? Ask whether the attached unit next door needs a look too.
- Widespread, or back after an earlier treatment? Ask whether tenting suits the building.
