Bed bugs travel via luggage, secondhand furniture, and shared walls — meaning any Ruffin property is at risk regardless of cleanliness. A mix of historic tobacco-era homes and rapidly expanding new construction tied to the region's tech and research growth, most on slab or crawl-space foundations. In multi-unit buildings, an infestation in one unit can spread to neighboring units through electrical outlets, baseboards, and plumbing penetrations if not treated promptly.
Because bed bugs hide in seams, cracks, and voids far from the mattress itself, our inspection covers the whole room, not just the bed. Heat treatment is often the fastest single-visit option, killing bed bugs and eggs alike; a chemical-hybrid protocol is used when heat equipment can't be deployed. Every job includes mattress encasement recommendations and a 14-day verification visit.
