Do not panic though, there is still some good news on how to successfully kill bed bugs and that is, by use of extreme heat. Most pest control companies would recommend a temperature of about 130 degrees to ensure that they are dead, as well as all of their eggs. This method of getting rid of those blood suckers is called Thermal Remediation. This is a very effective process because the heat kills all of them regardless of their stage in life. In thermal Remediation a home will be heated up to temperatures around 130 degrees or more for a period of about two hours or more, and almost guarantees to get rid of all of the bed bugs inside of the house.
