Bed Bug Treatment Prices in Dallas - How Much Does it Cost to Kill Bed Bugs?
At Kill Bed Bugs Dallas, we pride ourselves on giving you a fair deal and all the knowledge necessary to treat bed bugs yourself. We charge a flat $300 per day for our heaters. Our competitors, however, are terrified that we spilling the beans on their secrets. They won’t even tell you their prices!
Calling Other Companies
We went through the trouble of calling 10 different local DFW companies for the cost of a 2 bedroom bed bug treatment. Here is what we heard:
“We need to do an inspection before we commit to any prices.” - What in the world do you need to inspect?? Does your car wash inspect your car before telling you their prices?
“We charge a $150 inspection fee” - Sure, so now I need to pay upfront for a service I don’t even need. That’s halfway to a heater already.
“We don’t work on the weekends" - How many folks want to live with bed bugs for an extra weekend? It’s mind-boggling why other pest control companies schedule out their services days in advance. When you have bed bugs, you want them gone yesterday!
“$1800 to treat the two rooms” - WHAT! This is not rocket science. This company wanted to pay a technician to sit at my home for 6 hours to watch a heater run. I don’t need to pay for that!
“The price could be anywhere from $800 to $8000” - At least we got a range. Although for two bedrooms, I don’t know what they are expecting to find. Killing one bed bug is no more work than killing two.
The Secret to Overcharging
After talking to the grimey salesmen of our competitors, we gathered our experience to bring you the exclusive 4-Step Secret to Overcharging For Bed Bug Treatments ™:
Step 1: Don’t list prices online, on the phone, or in your advertisements.
If you want to maximize value from every customer, don’t tell anyone what your prices are. You can charge the couple with a BMW in their garage $1000 more than their neighbors, and no one will ever find out.
Who wants to tell their neighbors about that one time they had bed bugs, let alone how much they paid? No one!
Step 2: Always require an inspection before agreeing to a price.
Take this page from the used car salesman’s book: Always talk to the customer in person.
Notice how inspectors are always suave, cleanly dressed salesmen. Rarely do they perform the work themselves.
Why does the company spend the extra time and money to send someone over just to hand deliver a price? Simple - you are much more likely to be pressured and overcharged when you talk to someone in person.
Step 3: Never doubt the effectiveness of your own treatment method.
We’ve heard it all -
“Heat treatments are ancient technology”
“You need a chemical treatment to be sure that the bed bugs are gone”
“Chemicals are better than heat treatments”
“Heat treatments are more effective than chemicals”
“You need heat and liquid treatment.”
Here’s the truth: Heat treatments kill the eggs, the adults, and everything in-between. Store-bought chemicals are useless. Commercial grade pesticides work only on live bed bugs, not eggs.
Spray a pesticide and it will remain active for a few months, but it will take weeks before all the eggs have hatched and died. Miss a spot, and you’ll have to do it all over again.
Heat treatments kill bed bugs immediately. But they won’t kill the bed bugs you bring in later.
Pesticide sprays are insurance, but heat treatments are solutions. You will rarely ever need both.
Step 4: Offer a warranty no one can use.
To wrap it all up, offer a 30-day to 6-month warranty that has so many exclusions no one will take you up on it. Charge 50% more.
