Heat technology in pest control
We are pioneering the use of heat technology instead of chemicals to deliver a safer and more hygienic method of pest elimination, decontamination and sanitation for your workspace.
Heat works as a natural pesticide and sanitation agent, and can be used in any number of ways - from killing weevils and other insects that are common in flour mills, to sanitising catering facilities, equipment and food production units. It can even eradicate bed bugs from hotels and public accommodation.
One of the only companies in the UK that can offer thermal sanitation.
We are the only cleaning and emergency services company in the UK to use all four rapid-drying systems available. These heating systems work fast to produce intense heat that can be channelled into almost any location. We will ensure that the heat levels used are safe on the materials in the room, whilst still being strong enough to eradicate the pests. We are proud to be one of the only companies in the UK that can offer thermal sanitation as an alternative to using chemicals.
Eliminate Pest Insects with Heat Treatment
Ideal heat treatment is a new chemical-free method of pest control which can eliminate pest insects such as bed bugs and cockroaches, through the targeted application of heat. It’s a quick and effective treatment that reaches all areas of an infestation without causing structural damage. This heat treatment is also a mobile system delivering dry transferable heat to any contained area, large or small, infested with insect pests. This flexibility means it is suitable for a range of customers including hotels, guest houses, food manufacturers, food retailers, public transportation, shipping containers, residential and care homes.
This groundbreaking pest heat treatment is revolutionising the way Ideal can treat bed bugs, cockroaches and other insect pests.
Benefits of heat treatment for insect pests to your business:
- Minimal business disruption, as a single, quick, efficient treatment solves pest problems.
- Protects your business reputation as any pest problems are solved quickly and effectively.
- Chemical-free process allows treated areas to be re-used directly afterwards, with no residual side effects.
- Versatile, with the option to treat multiple areas simultaneously, hence saving time.
- Removes cost of disposing of items that cannot be chemically treated e.g. mattresses, furnishings.
Heat treatment kills all lifecycle stages of pests, from eggs and larvae to adults in one treatment. The heat kills insects such as bed bugs and cockroaches by denaturing the proteins within their bodies and disrupting the waxy layers on the outside of the insect, causing dehydration.
The heat treatment process works by heating a liquid syrup, and delivering it through insulated pipes to heat exchangers placed strategically within the infested treatment area. Heat probes and thermal imaging technology is used to confirm all target insect pests have been eradicated effectively.
Heat treatment is suitable for more than eliminating bed bug and cockroach infestations. It is an effective treatment for wood boring insects, moulds and pathogens and is approved as an International Standard of Phytosanitary Management (ISPM) 15 wood treatment. Ideal heat treatment is an effective, chemical-free pest control treatment only offered nationwide in the UK by Ideal Group.
