If anyone tells you; if you have bed bugs that there is a quick fix or a miracle cure, they are lying to you. If they tell you they know a guy that can do it cheap or they know of a DIY product you can buy at (insert any of your favorite hardware stores here) they are lying to you. If anyone tells you, they had bed bugs and it was an easy process to prepare for and it was inexpensive, again, they're lying to you.
We perform bed bug services nearly every single day. I will not sugar coat the process to you (the person reading this) and I won't sugar coat it to our potential customer. To be completely honest, it is a nightmare! The worst kind of nightmare. Sometimes, the kind of nightmare that doesn't go away, even when it does!
If you have had bed bugs and have had it treated, please skip to the last paragraph. You already know all of this! From the very beginning, just the confirmation that you have bed bugs will send some people screaming (or crying). Once we explain the process of the
customer preparation
for the service, you will realize that you are slowly sinking deep into this nightmare! Sometimes the prep work alone will take more than a day. After I explain how to prep the house, then I let you know how much this service is going to cost. The average bed bug cost is between $1,500 and $2,000! That is A LOT of money. Especially when you are expecting me to say $100 like every other service we offer. From the confirmation, to the prep work, to the cost, this all equals a very bad day! And to be completely honest, performing the service isn't a picnic for us either. It is VERY hard work. Usually the service takes 8+ hours to complete.
I am not delusioned. I am well aware that $1,500 is a lot of money. Even if you have disposable income, you don't want to feel like you are throwing money down the drain. Especially over one thousand dollars!
I myself am in the trenches nearly every day dealing with some aspect of bed bugs. I have personally witnessed the mental and financial struggle that people face with this service. I am the bug guy all the time and I'm a grief counselor MOST of the time. I have seen people eyes swell up with tears, cry hysterically, I have seen anger, disappointment and confusion. Basically I have been involved in the whole gamut of emotions and I standi in their living room laying out the absolute worst case scenario to their worst nightmare.
Now on to the whole reason for this blog post. Because of everything you have read above (or lived out yourself) I have done the only thing that I could think of to help EVERYONE. I have created a very specfic type of insurance...
Bed Bug Insurance!
Bed Bug Insurance
is just what it sounds like. We send out an inspector to your home and do a free inspection. Assuming you don't have
bed bugs, we can offer you an insurance that will protect you from the massive cost of a
bed bug service. The insurance covers the cost of the service, the cost of all laundry to be done, the cost of a hotel, and a whole host of other things.
