A 1950s cabin off Long Barn Road that the family uses twice a year, a rental near the lodge that books most weekends and a year-round home in Cold Springs can each need a different bed bug plan. Because the crew is driving up Highway 108 to reach you, it pays to understand the choices before the first visit.

Where to Start
- Bites after opening the cabin for the season? Start with an inspection before anyone else sleeps there.
- A cabin full of beds and futons? A scent dog can check them all in one visit.
- Renters arriving soon? Ask about one-day heat and how the crew plans to power its heaters.
- Want no residue on the kids' beds? Heat, or steam on mattresses, may be the better fit.
- Bugs everywhere, or back after a past treatment? Ask us to explain whether tenting is really needed.
