What temperature is needed to kill bed bugs?
Adult Bed bugs will die in 20 minutes when directly exposed to temperatures of 45°C (113°F). Bed bug eggs require 7 hours of exposure at the same temperature. However, if you increase the exposure temperature to 50°C, the adult bed bugs will die in 5 minutes, and eggs will no longer be viable after 30 minutes. The current recommendation for effective commercial heating services calls for a temperature of at least 55°C (130°F) for four hours, which will kill most bed bugs and eggs.
What about my fire suppression systems?
Fire suppression systems should always be taken seriously. Not taking proper precautions prior to and during a heat treatment can result in activations of sprinkler systems or alarms. Consult with your local authorities or fire department officials on how to handle your particular system when considering heat treatments.
Do I only need to heat the air to the "kill" temperatures?
No. Heat treatments require the structure and all of its contents, including wall voids, to get to lethal temperatures. Simply heating ambient air to lethal temperatures will not result in a successful treatment.
How long does a typical treatment take?
Treatment times will vary depending on the size and construction of the structure, the level of infestation, the type of contents, etc. We have found the average time to treat a typical apartment to be 8 hours (The longer the heater is on, the more effective the treatment is).
How much equipment is needed to make my structure hot enough?
The amount of equipment required to heat your structure to above 50 degrees Celsius will be contingent on a number of factors. These factors include: building materials, climate of your region, whether or not the treatment area is above/below ground level to name a few. Generally speaking, 8-12 per cubic feet BTUs (British Thermal Units) serves as a good rule of thumb.
How difficult is it to learn how to perform heat treatments?
The heat treatment process is detailed but not overwhelmingly difficult. The challenge lies in having the right amount of equipment, equipment that is simple to operate, good monitoring, and diligence. Variety of structures and situations will create new challenges. However, if you’re treating your own facilities and structures, your staff will develop and perfect the process at a much faster pace. HeatZone will help provide customized training and the proper equipment to be successful.
Bed bugs
Cannot survive over 50°C
Appearance: Bed bugs are flat, reddish-brown, oval insects up to 4 to 5 mm long or the size of an apple seed. Swollen and reddish after a blood meal.
Behavior, Diet & Habits: Bed bugs only feed on blood. Under cool conditions, bed bugs have been able to survive up to a year without a meal. They prefer to be more active at night when the host is asleep. Bed bugs are found in cracks and crevices, including mattress seams, sheets, furniture, behind baseboards, electrical outlet plates and picture frames. Often found in hotels, where they can travel from room to room and in visitors’ luggage or other personal belongings such as purses and briefcases.
Silverfish
Deadly Temperature 50°C
Appearance: White to brown-grey or bluish-silver in color, silverfish are teardrop-shaped insects that measure up to 12-19 mm in length. Three long bristles on rear. Grow from egg to adult without visible change in appearance.
Behavior, Diet & Habits: Capable of thriving in most climates, silverfish prefer to dwell in dark, damp areas such as basements, attics, kitchens and bathrooms. They are especially attracted to paper and damp clothing. Commonly found in stored boxes in garages and sheds.
Silverfish feed on carbohydrates, particularly sugars and starches. Cellulose, shampoos, glue in books, linen, silk and dead insects may be food sources. Have been found in unopened food packages.
Dust Mites
Deadly Temperature 50°C
Appearance: There are thousands of mite species, the majority of which measure less than 1 mm in length. Like other arachnids, their bodies are comprised of the prosoma and abdomen, and mites bear four pairs of legs.
Behavior, Diet & Habits: Beginning as eggs, these arachnids develop through larval and pupal stages prior to full maturation. They can survive on land and in water. Although most mites are not harmful to animals, some species are parasitic in nature. Parasitic mites that attack animal hosts can cause severe skin irritation known as mange. Bird mites are similarly bothersome to poultry, while spider mites are destructive to crops. Some parasitic species are more dangerous than others, as they reside within the respiratory tracts of their hosts. Others, such as chiggers, can transfer dangerous diseases.
