Where to Start
- Bites but no bugs spotted? Begin with an inspection or a K9 search.
- More than one house on the ranch? Ask for every sleeping building to be checked on the same day.
- Workers sharing rooms? Plan to treat all beds in the room together.
- Want no pesticide on mattresses? Ask about heat, with steam for bunks and futons.
- Bugs everywhere, or back after treatment? Ask whether tenting fits the building.
