Heat Treatment Training

Learn To Achieve A 100% Kill - On Site & Remote Training

The use of convected heated air was formally introduced to the Structural Pest Control Industry in 1989. It was conceived, researched, and initially patented by Dr. Charles Forbes, CSDH and Dr. Walter Ebeling, UCLA. Michael R. Linford PhD developed, commercialized, patented, and wrote the technical manual for Thermal Pest Eradication (TPE) in a joint venture with Forbes and Ebeling.

Michael R. Linford PhD is part of our Scientific Advisory Board and has been instrumental in establishing a complete commercial-grade portable equipment package and training that will guide you through a step-by-step procedure for bed bug, cockroach and other target pest eradication. This includes an overview of the heat methodology, bed bug biology and the basics of where to probe, how to establish convection currents in order to distribute the heat, sanitization, disinfection of treated areas and more. We cover the bed bug life cycles and how resilient they are to chemicals as well as unsuccessful treatment methods like freezing and steaming for bed bug eradication.

When properly applied, our professional-grade equipment consistently provides a 100% kill, 100% of the time, every time. Modern bed bug populations are highly resistant to the insecticides used for their control. Heat is known to be a very effective bed bug killer and it can be used in many different ways to treat infestations. To improve your success, training and certification are included with all equipment packages.

The training is designed to help you achieve a 100% kill of the target insect and ensure success for you and your customers. Killing bed bugs with heat is much more complex than just buying a heater and turning it on.
