Most pest control warranties are written to protect the company, not the customer. Here's exactly what happens if you see a bed bug after we treat your home.
📞 Call 248-569-8001What “6-Month Warranty” Actually Means
A lot of companies put the word “guarantee” on their website and leave it there: vague, unmeasured, and easy to wriggle out of if a customer calls back. We'd rather tell you exactly what you're getting before you ever need to use it.
If you see bed bug activity within 6 months of your treatment, we come back out and re-treat the affected areas. No new service fee. No “well, technically that's a different infestation” conversation. That's the whole policy.
How Our Re-Treatment Process Actually Works
You notice activity. A bite, a live bug, a shed skin: anything that makes you think they're back.
You call us. 248-569-8001. If it's within 6 months of your original treatment date, you're covered. We don't ask you to dig up a receipt or prove anything beyond that.
We schedule the re-treatment. Same priority as a new customer call. This isn't a “we'll squeeze you in eventually” situation.
We treat the affected areas again. No additional charge for labor or product on the areas covered by the original treatment.
How This Compares to Other Guarantees You'll See
| What to Look For | Common Industry Approach | Hi-Tech Pest Control |
|---|---|---|
| Coverage window | Often 30 days or unspecified | 6 months |
| Re-treatment cost | Frequently “discounted,” not free | No charge for covered areas |
| What counts as “the same problem” | Sometimes disputed at time of call | If it's within the window, it's covered |
| Family-owned accountability | Varies by company | Serving SE Michigan since 1986 |
We're not naming names here. Every company structures its guarantee differently, and you should ask any exterminator you're considering exactly what their warranty covers, for how long, and whether re-treatment is actually free or just “discounted.” Those details matter a lot more than the sticker price of the first visit.
Why We Can Afford to Offer This
Honestly, because we don't expect to need to use it very often. When a treatment is done thoroughly the first time, callbacks are rare. The warranty isn't a marketing gimmick bolted onto a weak process; it's a reflection of how confident we are in the process itself.
That said, bed bugs are resilient, and no treatment method in the industry (heat, chemical, or otherwise) claims 100% success on the first visit in every single case. The honest answer is that re-treatments do happen sometimes, and when they do, you shouldn't be the one paying for it twice.
The Bottom Line: Ask These 3 Questions
Before you hire anyone for bed bug treatment, ask them:
If the answers are vague, that's worth knowing before you sign anything, not after you see a bug in week three.

Bed Bug Warranty FAQ
What does a 6-month bed bug warranty actually cover?
At Hi-Tech Pest Control, if you see bed bug activity within 6 months of your treatment, we come back and re-treat the affected areas with no new service fee and no additional charge for labor or product on areas covered by the original treatment.
Is bed bug re-treatment really free?
With Hi-Tech, yes, for covered areas within the 6-month window. Many companies advertise a guarantee but only discount the re-treatment, so always ask whether it is free or just discounted.
What should I ask before hiring a bed bug exterminator?
Ask three questions: How long does your warranty last? Is re-treatment actually free, or just discounted? And what exactly do I need to do to use it? Vague answers are worth knowing before you sign.
Do I need my receipt to use the Hi-Tech warranty?
No. If you call within 6 months of your original treatment date, you are covered. We do not ask you to dig up a receipt or prove anything beyond that.
Can bed bugs come back after treatment?
Bed bugs are resilient, and no treatment method claims 100% success on the first visit in every case. Re-treatments sometimes happen, which is why a real warranty matters.
