Bed Bug Inspection in Kenwood, CA

Spending money on treatment only makes sense once you know it is bed bugs and how far they have gone. A professional inspection settles both. For a rented Kenwood home, it also produces the written findings a landlord must pass to tenants under California law.

When to Call for an Inspection

• New bites keep appearing after nights in the same bed.
• Small brown or black dots show up on sheets or mattress seams.
• You spotted a flat bug or pale shells near where you sleep.
• Friends who stayed in your guest room mentioned bites.
• You opened a weekend house and found signs on the beds.

What the Technician Checks

The search begins at the bed and spreads out from there: mattress piping and labels, box springs, frames, headboards, bedside tables, couches, recliners, baseboards, switch plates and curtain folds. In older Kenwood houses, many from the 1940s, the joints in wood trim and floors get extra attention.

How the Visit Goes

2. SearchBedrooms come first, then living areas and any guest suite.
3. FindingsWhatever turns up is shown to you, often with photos.
4. ReportA written list of affected rooms and the treatment options.

Getting Ready
