Bed Bug Treatment in Portland, Oregon

Portland's bed bug problem has grown alongside the city's busy travel and rental markets. Infestations turn up regularly in inner-east-side apartment buildings, older craftsman homes with plentiful hiding spots in wood trim and hardwood floor gaps, and short-term rentals that see constant guest turnover. Oregon law requires landlords to disclose and address bed bug infestations in rental units, and we work with property owners across Multnomah, Washington, and Clackamas counties to document and eliminate problems quickly.

Because bed bugs in Portland homes often spread between adjacent units and shared-wall housing, treating only one room is rarely enough. Our technicians are familiar with the city's housing stock — from Pearl District condos to Gresham duplexes — and we build treatment plans that account for how infestations move through connected spaces. Whether you spotted bites after a trip through PDX or found evidence in a secondhand couch from a Hawthorne vintage shop, we'll eliminate the problem at its source.

Finding bed bugs in your Portland home is stressful, but you're not alone — infestations have surged across the metro area in recent years, from Alberta apartments to Beaverton single-family homes. These pests hitchhike on luggage, secondhand furniture, and clothing, and they multiply fast once they settle into mattresses, baseboards, and wall voids.

Our licensed exterminators specialize in eliminating bed bugs at every stage of life, using proven treatments tailored to your situation. Whether you're dealing with a few bites or a full-blown infestation, we'll get your Portland home back to normal quickly and discreetly.

Our Bed Bug Treatment Process

Inspection A certified inspector examines mattresses, box springs, furniture, and hiding spots, using tools to confirm activity and map the infestation's extent.
Custom Treatment Plan Based on your home's layout and infestation severity, we recommend the right approach — heat treatment, targeted insecticide application, or a combination.
Treatment We treat infested rooms and adjacent areas, reaching cracks, crevices, and wall voids where bed bugs hide. Preparation instructions make the visit efficient.
Follow-Up Roughly two weeks later, we re-inspect and treat any remaining activity to catch newly hatched eggs and confirm the infestation is gone.
