GTA Toronto Pest Control was founded in 1998 and has completed more than 1,500 bed bug jobs across Toronto and the GTA. Our reputation as a leader in bed bug inspections is built on a strong foundation of trust, experience, and commitment to customer satisfaction. Every technician on our team holds a current PCO licensed issued by the Ministry of Environment, Canada.
DIY bed bug inspections are often unreliable due to the elusive nature of these pests. Bed bugs are tiny and adept at hiding in hard-to-spot areas such as mattress seams, electrical outlets, baseboards, furniture joints, and wallpaper edges. Most homeowners only notice live bed bugs when an infestation has grown significantly, and misidentifying bed bugs can result in wasted time and money on the wrong treatments.
Our licensed technicians provide a thorough and systematic inspection, room by room, to identify bed bugs in all life stages – eggs, nymphs, and adults. This accurate identification ensures the right treatment plan is applied, minimizing unnecessary steps and costs. A professional bed bug inspection from GTA Toronto Pest Control gives you certainty, and a clear path to elimination.

Thermal bed bug treatment is the most effective elimination method available. Our industrial-grade heating equipment raises the temperature of the treated space to 50°C and above — a temperature that is lethal to bed bugs at every life stage, including eggs, nymphs, and adults.
Unlike sprays, heat penetrates deep into mattresses, inside wall voids, behind baseboards, and through furniture — reaching every hiding spot in the room. The treatment is maintained at lethal temperature for 6 to 8 hours, with our technicians monitoring heat distribution throughout to eliminate any cold spots. There is no chemical resistance to heat — bed bugs cannot survive it. In the majority of cases, a single heat treatment session achieves complete elimination.
Where required particularly in severe or multi-room infestations, we apply a targeted residual chemical treatment as a secondary barrier. This is applied to crack and crevice areas, along baseboards, and behind fixtures using Ministry of Environment-approved products.
Residents are advised to stay out of treated areas for 4 hours following chemical application. A follow-up inspection is scheduled within the guarantee period to confirm elimination and provide residual protection against any re-activity.
