How We Treat
See exactly how we treat your home
From arrival to verification — monitored, controlled and documented.
Step inside a complete Bed Bug Heat Experts UK demonstration treatment and see how professional heat treatment progresses through the property.
Demonstration treatment
This is a staged BHE demonstration designed to show how a professional heat treatment may progress. Property layouts, equipment configuration, treatment duration, temperature progression and technician actions vary between treatments.
The BHE Heat Treatment Theatre
A complete demonstration treatment, stage by stage
Select any stage to see what happens, when it happens in this staged demonstration, and why it matters. The property, the timings and the temperatures are staged for teaching — a real treatment is scoped, timed and verified on its own terms.

15 Verification and treatment recordAfter the works
Treatment information is compiled into the documented treatment record.
Why It Matters
Why professional heat treatment is more than just heating a room
Heat distribution
Heat has to reach the places bed bugs shelter, not just the middle of the room.
Air movement
Air movers carry heat into furniture, voids and slower corners rather than letting it pool.
Monitoring
Monitoring positions show what the treatment area is actually doing, not what the heater is doing.
Cold and slower areas
Some areas develop more slowly. Finding them is the point of monitoring.
Technician adjustments
A human technician decides what to change and when. Nothing is automated on their behalf.
Verification and documentation
The treatment is assessed against recorded data, and that data becomes your record.
The approved BHE treatment target is 56°C, assessed against the conditions of the individual property rather than a fixed promise.
Documentation

Documentation is part of the service rather than an optional extra. Information captured during the works is compiled into the BHE Verified Treatment Record™.
