ThermEx helps eliminate bed bugs
Because of the dramatic rise in bed bug infestations that are affecting our homes, hotels, apartment complexes or nursing homes two companies decided to join forces and come up with a solution. Massey Services (a service provider in the pest management industry) and Chromalux (leading manufacturer of precision heat and control products) have come up with the ThermEx program. The program will be released this month at this year’s National Pest Management Association’s annual PestWorld conference. Along with the introduction of the product training will be provided by Massey Services.
What exactly is the ThermEx program? It’s a revolutionary bed bug heat remediation. From the ThermEx package you can expect a Chromalux designed heating unit and training from Massey Services. Why heat? Research has shown that heat is a more effective method for treating bed bugs rather than residual products because of the fact that bed bugs can hide in extremely hard to find cracks and crevices making complete termination very difficult. A heat remediation treatment usually will take 48 hours to eliminate an entire bed bug population while a residual treatment can take up to 12 weeks to work effectively. The focus of the program is for hotels and multi-unit housing such as apartments or nursing homes.
