Hi-Tech Pest Control has served St. Clair Shores and Metro Detroit since 1986 and specializes in bed bugs. What sets us apart is the one-visit approach: a free in-person inspection of every hiding place, a treatment that targets eggs, nymphs and adults, and Michigan's only 6-month bed bug warranty. We serve St. Clair Shores 7 days a week from 8:30 AM to 10 PM. Call 248-569-8001.

Cost depends on how far the infestation has spread, not on your ZIP code. As a general range: a typical St. Clair Shores home with two or three rooms affected, roughly $1,100 to $2,300. Severe, whole-home or multi-unit infestations, roughly $2,300 to $4,000. The inspection is free, and you get the scope and price before any work starts.

Yes, when the inspection is complete, the home is fully prepared and the treatment reaches every hiding place and every life stage. Repeat visits usually happen because the first treatment was aimed at what was visible, the mattress, instead of what was hidden: furniture, baseboards, outlets and wall voids. We find the hiding places first, treat all of them and explain the warranty in your written service agreement.

Yes. Same-day inspections are available throughout St. Clair Shores, including ZIP codes 48080, 48081 and 48082, subject to the day's schedule. We answer the phone 7 days a week from 8:30 AM to 10 PM. Call 248-569-8001 or request an inspection online and we will give you the earliest time available.

The usual causes are a treatment aimed only at the mattress, surface spray that misses eggs in wall voids and baseboards, DIY sprays or foggers that push bugs deeper into the walls, and untreated neighboring units in apartment buildings. Eggs that survive hatch two to three weeks later and the cycle restarts. Bring the product names or invoice from the earlier treatment if you have them and we will look for what was missed.

Usually, no. Throwing out a couch or mattress rarely ends an infestation, because bed bugs are also in the bed frame, baseboards, outlets and wall voids. Dragging furniture through your home can spread them. We treat furniture in place. Speak with us before discarding or moving a mattress, box spring, couch or recliner.

St. Clair Shores has many condos and apartments along Jefferson Ave and Gratiot Ave, plus waterfront hospitality and steady visitors along the Nautical Mile. Luggage, used furniture and shared walls are the most common ways bed bugs reach a new address. Cleanliness is not the cause, and any home can get them.

Yes. We treat single-family homes, condos and apartments throughout St. Clair Shores, including older lakefront homes. Every treatment starts with a full in-person inspection of furniture, baseboards, outlets and wall voids, and furniture is treated in place.

No. Bites or skin marks alone cannot identify the cause. If possible, save a suspected bug in a sealed container or take a clear close-up photo, and note any physical evidence such as live bugs, shed skins or dark spotting near furniture seams. Call us to discuss what you have found.

We serve homes, apartments and businesses throughout St. Clair Shores, including ZIP codes 48080, 48081 and 48082, from our Livonia base. Call 248-569-8001 to discuss your situation and current appointment availability.

Yes. Tell us whether you are a resident, owner or property manager. Bed bugs travel through shared walls, outlets and hallways, so treatment access, preparation and an evaluation of adjoining units need to be coordinated with the responsible parties. We can give you written findings to share with your landlord or property manager.

Save the bug in a sealed container or take a clear close-up photo, and call us before doing anything else. Do not use foggers or spray your own pesticides, and do not bag everything and move to the couch. Those steps can push bed bugs deeper into walls or spread them to new rooms.

We walk you through exactly what to do before the visit, and our bed bug treatment preparation guide covers it step by step. Full preparation is required. One rule matters before we arrive: do not start bagging and moving things around, because that can carry bed bugs into rooms that are still clean.

Our six-month bed bug warranty includes new infestations during the warranty period under your written service agreement. Ask us to explain the coverage and your preparation responsibilities before service begins.

Yes. We provide commercial bed bug treatment for hotels and motels, senior living, adult foster care and group homes, offices and apartment communities. Service is discreet, after-hours scheduling is available and every treatment is documented.
