"I can't think of a way to improve every interaction with anyone from people on the phone to the technicians who have been wonderful. There's been a great response when we've had additional needs. Yesterday our regular technician wasn't available but in response to a very large infestation a gentleman by the name of Momen, ID 369 came to treat the premises for a lot of ants. He did a great job. He was very personable, very knowledgeable, took an extreme amount of time and caution and I would like to commend him for his work"

For apartments, hotels, hospitals and other commercial lodgings in Maryland, Virginia and DC, bed bugs are becoming a major threat to our local businesses. At American Pest we have developed our Commercial Bed Bug Services to combat the ever growing bed bug resurgence. After almost 50 years of dormancy, these tiny, nocturnal insects began re-emerging in the late 1990s and are continuing their strong comeback across the Washington D.C. area, affecting many businesses across a wide variety of industries. Bed bugs are skilled hitchhikers and prolific breeders that feed on human blood, and who have the ability to thoroughly infest commercial properties in as little as 3 to 6 months. Travelers are usually responsible for bed bug infestations, as they pick them up in other commercial lodgings, taxis or airplanes and carry them in their luggage. Bed bug infestations are not easily detected as bed bugs will hide in furniture crevices, beneath mattresses, under carpets and behind decorative treatments.
| K-9 bed bug inspection |
At American Pest we resolve bed bug issues for businesses in Washington D.C., Silver Spring and Arlington as well as all of Maryland and Northern Virginia and to that end we customize our guaranteed commercial bed bug services to the individual business after careful assessment of the severity of the infestation and the likelihood of re-infestation, as well as the other environmental concerns that factor into the development of a successful bed bug treatment.
We rely on Gizmo, our Florida Canine Academy Certified bed bug dog, to perform K-9 bed bug inspections for area apartment buildings and offices. Once the inspection is performed, we then customize a treatment solution to suit your company’s needs and budget and which may include the use of Cryonite® Wands and Protect-A-Bed® Mattress Encasements.
Cryonite® is an environmentally-friendly technology that kills bed bugs by freezing them. This method is non-poisonous and can penetrate deep into the cracks and crevices that appeal to bed bugs and allows employees, tenants or customers to access the treated areas immediately after the treatment is complete.
Protect-A-Bed® mattress and boxspring encasements are ideal for businesses that have a high occupancy turnover and are an effective measure that puts an impenetrable barrier between your customers and unwanted visitors like bed bugs.
As part of a comprehensive bed bug control program, our pest control technicians will also install NightWatchTM units for bed bug monitoring if necessary. The NightWatchTM Bed Bug Monitor from BioSensory is designed to lure bed bugs from their hiding places by mimicking a live person. It is a powerful attractant and trapping system that assists us in capturing mature and immature bed bugs and is ideal for commercial facilities that are frequently exposed to possible bed bug infestations. No matter how severe a bed bug issue your business may be dealing with, American Pest can help. We have the experience to eliminate your bed bug problems and will even educate your staff on how to prevent future bed bug infestations.
