Where to Start
- Bites after a weekend, but no bugs found? Start with an inspection or a dog search.
- Renting out a cabin? Get it checked before the next group checks in.
- Historic permit cabin? Indoor methods such as heat, steam or targeted products are usually simpler to arrange.
- No pesticide on the bunks? Ask about heat, with steam on mattresses and futons.
- Bugs in every room, or back after treatment? Ask if tenting fits, and check permit rules first.
