Bed bug heat treatment in Richmond Hill can start as soon as you have the kit. I rent a commercial-grade bed bug heater kit to Richmond Hill homes with $75 delivery or free pick-up in Scarborough, so you don’t wait days for an exterminator appointment.
Waiting days for an exterminator appointment in Richmond Hill can feel endless when you’re getting bitten. Renting means you can start as soon as you have the kit, for $200 a day. You do the prep, setup and hourly checks yourself. If you’d rather hand the job to someone else, a licensed exterminator is the better choice.
Our bed bug treatment cost guide compares the options in detail.
Richmond Hill has detached homes in neighbourhoods like Oak Ridges and Bayview Hill, plus condo towers along Yonge Street. In a house, run the heaters from your dryer outlet. In a condo, use the kitchen stove outlet with the power distribution boxes, and keep the heaters well away from sprinkler heads.
Before you treat, separate the bed from the wall, stand mattresses on edge, and open drawers and closets so heat can reach everything. The guide in the kit shows the best layout for each room.
Bed bugs hide during the day and come out at night, so you often see bites before you see bugs. Heat treats the whole room, reaching the hiding places you can’t find. Health Canada says bed bugs die at 50°C, and keeping each room above that for 8–10 hours gives the heat time to work.

Each room needs 8–10 hours of heat, with 2–4 hours of rest for the heaters before the next room. The instruction guide and videos cover setup and cooldown step by step, and our room preparation guide explains what to wash, move and remove before you start.
We serve Oak Ridges, Mill Pond, Bayview Hill, Richmond Heights, Langstaff, Elgin Mills, Jefferson, Westbrook and the Yonge Street condo corridor. Nearby, we also cover Markham, Vaughan, North York and the rest of the Greater Toronto Area.

Wash and dry bedding on high heat, move furniture away from the walls, open drawers and closets, and remove anything that could melt, burst or burn.
I can’t give medical advice. If you’re worried about bites or a reaction, talk to a pharmacist or your doctor.
Look for small dark spots on sheets and mattress seams, shed skins, and the bugs themselves near the bed. Our guide to spotting bed bugs has photos and tips.
Remove or protect heat-sensitive items, and follow the guide for electronics. When unsure, take them out of the room.
