Richmond residents may encounter bed bugs in houses, apartments, hotels and other places where people sleep or rest. An inspection can focus on mattress seams, bed frames, upholstered furniture and nearby cracks.
In older row houses and multi-unit buildings, it can be useful to ask whether adjoining rooms or units should also be considered. Share any evidence and recent furniture or travel history with the provider.

Local inspection considerations
- •Many Fan District and Oregon Hill homes sit on raised foundations with crawl spaces that collect moisture from the James River floodplain, so we run moisture checks before placing heaters to avoid warping original floorboards.
- •Church Hill and Shockoe Bottom blocks often have narrow service alleys and on-street parking only, requiring our vans to stage equipment at the curb and carry gear up multiple exterior stair sets.
- •Jackson Ward and Museum District row houses frequently share interior walls with neighboring properties, so we coordinate with adjacent owners before any treatment crosses the property line.
- Ask the provider to confirm whether your exact address is within its service area before arranging an appointment.
