Rochester's Bed Bug Treatment Specialists
Bed bugs are among the hardest household pests to eliminate. They reproduce fast, hide in tight crevices, and can survive months without feeding. Generic spray-and-pray treatments rarely fully eliminate an active infestation. Optimum Pest Pros specializes in bed bug treatment across the Rochester and Canandaigua, NY market, with two in-house extermination methods: Aprehend (a specialized residual biopesticide that kills bed bugs over weeks) and heat treatment (whole-room thermal remediation). We choose the method that matches your specific infestation, not the other way around.
Optimum is owned and operated by Jeff, a NYS DEC 7F Licensed pest control operator with 10+ years of experience. We hold additional commercial-grade certifications (AIB, SQF Level 3, BRC) for food-industry pest control, which means the same protocol rigor we use in food processing facilities is applied to your home infestation. We hold a 4.9-star rating across 260+ reviews and offer 24/7 emergency availability for severe active infestations.
Every treatment starts with a free, on-site inspection so we can confirm the infestation scope (single room, multiple rooms, or whole-home) before recommending the protocol. No pushy upsells, no one-size-fits-all plan.

What to Expect: Our Bed Bug Treatment Process
Step 1: Free Inspection
A technician comes to your home to confirm the presence and scope of bed bugs. We inspect the typical hot spots (mattresses, box springs, headboards, baseboards, electrical outlets, furniture seams) and walk you through what we find. There is no charge for the inspection and no obligation to proceed.
Step 2: Customized Treatment Plan
Based on the inspection, we recommend the right method: Aprehend, heat treatment, or a combined protocol. You see the plan and pricing in writing before any treatment begins.
Step 3: Treatment and Follow-Up
Bed bug treatment is never one-and-done. We schedule a follow-up inspection 2 to 4 weeks after the initial treatment to verify the infestation is eliminated. Most jobs are fully resolved within one to two follow-up visits.

Bed Bug Treatment FAQs
Pricing depends on infestation scope (single room vs. multiple rooms vs. whole home), the method (Aprehend, heat treatment, or combined), and how many follow-up visits the situation requires. Every treatment plan starts with a free, on-site inspection so you see the actual scope and pricing in writing before any work begins.
With Aprehend, most infestations are fully resolved within 4 to 8 weeks of the initial treatment, with one to two follow-up inspections. With heat treatment, the in-room kill is same-day, with a follow-up at 2 to 4 weeks to confirm. Combined protocols vary based on the situation.
Aprehend is a specialized residual treatment that uses a naturally occurring fungus (Beauveria bassiana) to kill bed bugs. It is EPA-registered, low-toxicity to humans and pets, and effective for up to three months after application. Optimum is one of the few Rochester-area providers offering Aprehend, and we rank #1 in the area for it.
Yes. Bed bug heat treatment is one of our two in-house treatment methods (Aprehend is the other). Heat uses thermal remediation to kill bed bugs at every life stage in a single treatment. It is the right call for severe infestations, time-sensitive situations, or households where chemical treatment isn't preferred.
Yes. Owner Jeff holds NYS DEC 7F Licensed pest control operations credentials, plus AIB, SQF Level 3, BRC, CGMP, Organic, and USDA standards compliance certifications. The food-industry credentials matter because they reflect the same protocol rigor we use in your home.
