With professional bed bug control in Kansas City, homeowners and businesses can feel confident about taking back their space.
At Augustine Exterminators, Inc., we provide detailed bed bug inspections and treatment services throughout the Kansas City area. Our goal is to bring clear answers, a practical plan, and respectful service into a situation that often feels overwhelming. If you’re unsure whether you’re dealing with bed bugs, scheduling a free inspection is a smart first step.
We have served the Greater Kansas City community since 1966 as a third-generation, family-owned company. Over time, we’ve grown into the largest independent pest control company in the state of Kansas, and our neighbors continue to rely on us for help with even the toughest pest problems. Our experience across Kansas City, MO pest control situations allows us to approach bed bug infestations with confidence and care.
Why Local Families Choose Our Team
When you’re dealing with bed bugs, you want a team that understands both the pest and the homes in your area. We have helped generations of families and local businesses on both the Kansas and Missouri sides of the city, so we are familiar with everything from single-family homes to apartment communities and offices.
Our team includes licensed pest control technicians who handle a wide range of issues, including bed bugs, rodents, and insects like cockroaches. If you’re facing multiple pest concerns, our home pest control services allow you to work with one trusted provider.
We also work closely with a board-certified entomologist who helps accurately identify pests and develop effective control strategies. This ensures your treatment plan is based on science, not guesswork. Our QualityPro and GreenPro Certifications reflect our commitment to industry standards and environmentally responsible practices.
A significant portion of our business comes from customer referrals, and many of our customers stay with us for years because we offer no-contract service. That flexibility is especially important when dealing with stressful issues like bed bugs.
Signs You May Have Bed Bugs
If you’re not sure whether you’re dealing with bed bugs, you’re not alone. Many people in the Kansas City area first notice small bites or itchy spots and aren’t immediately sure of the cause.
Common signs that suggest you may have a bed bug infestation include:
- Red, itchy bites that often appear in lines or clusters
- Small dark spots on sheets or mattress seams
- Tiny rust-colored stains where bugs have been crushed
- Live bed bugs in mattress folds, along baseboards, or around upholstered furniture
Having bed bugs is not a sign that your home is dirty. Bed bugs travel on clothing, luggage, used furniture, and other items, making them easy to bring into any home or business. You can learn more about identifying early warning signs by reading our guide on how to identify and get rid of bed bugs.
Our Bed Bug Inspection Process
Not knowing what to expect from an inspection can add to the stress. We work hard to make the process feel straightforward and respectful from start to finish.
Our licensed technicians arrive on time, introduce themselves, and begin with a conversation about what you’ve noticed and where concerns are highest. We then carefully inspect common hiding areas such as mattresses, box springs, bed frames, upholstered furniture, baseboards, and wall cracks.
In apartments or multi-unit properties, we also assess shared walls and adjacent units, since bed bugs can travel through walls and utility lines. Our findings help property owners and managers understand the scope of the issue and coordinate an effective response.
Once the inspection is complete, we explain what we found, whether bed bugs are present, and what treatment options make sense for your situation. If no bed bugs are detected, we can still provide guidance to prevent future issues.
Bed Bug Treatment Options & Support
After confirming bed bug activity, we design a treatment plan tailored to your home or business. Our approach to bed bug control in Kansas City focuses on thorough inspection, targeted applications, and follow-up visits when needed.
Treatments are performed by licensed technicians who follow product labels and industry safety standards. Our QualityPro and GreenPro Certifications reflect our commitment to proper training, safety, and responsible product selection.
We discuss how treatments work, how many visits may be needed, and what noticing improvement looks like over time. Bed bug control is rarely a one-visit solution, which is why clear communication and follow-up are so important.
In addition to bed bug treatments, we often help customers with other pest concerns uncovered during inspections, such as cockroach control or rodent control, ensuring your entire home is protected.
We provide bed bug solutions for single-family homes, apartments, condominiums, and commercial properties. If you manage a property or operate a business, our team is experienced in handling sensitive situations and minimizing disruption.
Preventing Bed Bugs After Treatment
Once bed bugs are under control, prevention becomes the focus. Simple habits can make a meaningful difference, especially in a busy region like Kansas City with frequent travel and shared housing.
- Helpful prevention steps include:
- Inspecting secondhand furniture before bringing it indoors
- Washing and drying clothing on high heat after travel
- Reducing clutter near sleeping areas
- Monitoring mattress seams and furniture regularly
For additional guidance, our article on top tips to prevent bed bugs offers practical advice you can follow year-round. Ongoing monitoring and occasional professional inspections can help catch issues early.
