What makes our rapid service different?

Rapid response means we prioritise urgent calls, quickly locate infestation hotspots and apply the most effective treatment for the situation. Our technicians combine fast diagnostics with powerful, safe solutions (heat treatment, steam or targeted insecticide application) so you see results sooner and with fewer repeat visits.

Common signs of bedbugs

• Small, itchy red bites on exposed skin
• Brownish spots on pillows and mattresses
• Visible bedbugs or shed skins in mattress seams
• A faint, sweet musty odour in severe infestations

Our rapid treatment process

1. Contact & triage: Use our contact form to send photos or describe the issue — https://pestexterminatorleeds.co.uk/contact-us/.
2. On-site inspection: A certified technician inspects the property, checks adjoining rooms and confirms spread.
3. Recommended solution: We propose the fastest proven option for your case — often whole-room heat treatment for a single-visit elimination or a combined approach where necessary.
4. Treatment & verification: We carry out the chosen treatment and perform a follow-up check to confirm success.

Treatment methods we use

Whole-room heat treatment

Heat is highly effective — it penetrates furniture and upholstery to kill bedbugs and eggs without long-lasting chemicals. This is usually the fastest way to fully eliminate an infestation.

Targeted insecticide application

Where heat is unsuitable, we apply industry-approved residual treatments to cracks, joinery and other harbourage sites. These are applied by trained technicians following safety guidelines.

Steam & vacuuming

High-temperature steam and professional vacuuming are used to reduce numbers quickly and prepare items for the main treatment.

Follow-up & prevention

We offer mattress encasements, monitoring traps and practical advice to reduce the chance of reinfestation after treatment.

Preparing for treatment (quick checklist)

• Clear floor space around beds and sofas
• Remove loose clothing and laundry to sealed bags
• Make beds accessible — loosen sheets and bedding
• Inform us of any fragile items or electronics
