Steam treatments are an eco-friendly and highly effective method for eliminating pests such as bed bugs, mites, and certain fabric or stored product pests, particularly in sensitive environments where chemical use is not desired. By using high-temperature steam, this treatment penetrates deep into mattresses, upholstery, carpets, and cracks to kill pests at all life stages—without leaving chemical residues behind. Steam treatments are ideal for homes, hotels, healthcare facilities, and businesses seeking immediate results and minimal disruption. Our pest control professionals deliver thorough steam applications, detailed preparation instructions, and post-treatment support to ensure safe and complete pest elimination.
Steam Treatment Preperation and Expectations
Proper preparation maximizes the effectiveness of steam treatments. Before the service, clients should reduce clutter, wash and bag infested linens, and ensure easy access to areas to be treated, such as beds, sofas, and baseboards. During the appointment, trained technicians will apply steam slowly and methodically to all target areas, ensuring deep penetration and comprehensive coverage. After the service, treated areas can usually be re-entered immediately, with minimal drying time required, and clients are provided with guidance for ongoing prevention and monitoring.

Pre-Treatment PreparationPre-Treatment Preparation
Remove unnecessary items and clutter from the treatment area, including under beds and behind furniture. Launder bedding, linens, and clothing in hot water, and dry on high heat. Bag clean items and keep them sealed until after treatment to prevent reinfestation, and vacuum floors and furniture to remove debris and pest eggs.

Day of Service – What to ExpectDay of Service – What to Expect
Technicians will move systematically through the space, applying high-temperature steam to mattresses, box springs, furniture, carpets, curtains, and cracks where pests may hide. The process is safe for most fabrics and surfaces but may require a brief drying period after completion. Occupants and pets can typically remain elsewhere in the home during treatment, as there are no chemical odors or residues.
-
Post-Treatment GuidelinesPost-Treatment Guidelines
Allow treated items to dry fully before replacing linens or sitting on furniture. Monitor for any signs of lingering pests, and follow your pest control professional’s recommendations for continued cleaning and preventive care. Regular vacuuming and periodic inspections are encouraged to maintain a pest-free environment.

I was looking for pest control after another company failed to come out. I came across Rock Pest Control & seen that they had 5 star reviews across the board all the way back to 2 years. I haven’t even used them yet as I was to get my first service call next week. I received a text message this evening from Matt saying there was a cancellation & they will be by sooner! When I tell you the customer service is top notch you’ll have to get the service to believe it for yourself!! SUPER pleased I went with this company!! **UPDATE** I highly recommend this pest service company!! I recently move to Missouri from FL, but my husband was here already at our new home. Let me tell you this pest control company is amazing!! My card for one changed & they called & I got that situated. Two I told them I was now in town when before they knew I was out of town. I’m beyond amazing by this company! They are very detailed in their work. I never have to call them & they’re always on time when they say they’re going to be here. If not, they’re calling you immediately letting you know that they’re running “X” minutes behind. Yet I haven’t experienced that as of yet. Trust me you WON’T be disappointed!!
