"I think that this is a fantastic service. I had a terrible infestation of mice and it was taken care of by knowledgeable, really friendly and seemingly concerned people. And the follow up was fantastic. I haven't had a single mouse problem since that time and the service people are continuing to find and treat problems. Like today there was an ant issue on the outside but it was treated and there was a yellow jacket issue that was treated as well. So I'm very satisfied and yes I would recommend it to anybody."

The threat of developing a Bed bug infestation is becoming a reality for many homeowners, students, and travelers across DC, Maryland and Virginia. At American Pest we have developed our Bed Bug Services exclusively to help fight back against a growing epidemic. Bed bugs are tiny, nocturnal insects that feed on the blood of humans. They are making a strong comeback in Maryland and Virginia as well as many other populated areas across the country. Bed bugs are superior hitchhikers and prolific breeders, causing widespread infestations in homes and apartment units in as little as 3 to 6 months. Oftentimes travelers will pick them up in commercial lodgings, taxis or airplanes and carry them home in their luggage. It is common for bed bug infestations to go undetected for several weeks as they will hide in hard to locate furniture crevices, behind baseboards, in furniture, beneath mattresses, under carpets and even behind light switches, picture frames and electrical outlets. Without proper bed bug treatment they have the ability to severely infest homes and threaten the families that live in them. As a dedicated pest control company in the D.C. area as well as in Tacoma Park, Potomac and other Maryland and Virginia cities, American Pest provides effective bed bug services that are proven to get rid of bed bugs in homes, apartments, condos and other residential dwellings.
Whether you live in Arlington or Rockville, to completely get rid of bed bugs in your home it is essential to treat all of the affected areas. While this sounds simple it is rather difficult because of the cryptic nature of bed bugs.
You will not typically spot bed bugs during the day, especially in early or light infestations, as they will hide deeply to avoid detection. At American Pest we trust our certified bed bug dog to alert us to their presence. Using Gizmo, a bed bug dog trained at the highly accredited Florida Canine Academy, we perform a thorough home inspection to identify any room or area for the presence of bed bugs. Once we identify all rooms or areas where bed bugs are located, we will customize a treatment solution for those areas. Because not all homes or bed bug problems are identical, American Pest will customize a bed bug treatment and service to meet your individual needs. Assessing the severity of the infestation, the likelihood of re-infestation and other environmental concerns all play important roles in developing successful bed bug treatment programs. Whether you have the beginning signs of a bed bug problem or are thoroughly infested with these unwanted pests our residential bed bug control for Maryland and Virginia is sure to resolve all your bed bug issues. Best of all we offer a one year guarantee on our bed bug services when agreeing to our comprehensive treatment plan, consisting of:
