Average Bed Bug Treatment Costs in the UK (Guide for Bexley)
- Chemical (spray/insecticide) treatments: typically £200–£500+ depending on rooms treated and severity.
- Steam + spray (integrated) treatments are often priced per bedroom, commonly from ~£320 per room.
- Heat treatments: usually higher upfront; a common pricing model is a higher first-room fee and a reduced rate for additional rooms the same visit.
Note: Prices vary by access/parking, clutter, laundry/prep requirements, and the number of follow-up visits needed. The best way to pin down your price is a short survey and a written quote.
What Affects the Price?
- Treatment type: Heat is fastest but costs more; chemical/steam options cost less per visit but may require 2–3 visits.
- Size & layout: More rooms = more time and materials.
- Infestation level: Heavier activity may need extra visits and extended prep.
- Preparation: Laundering, decluttering, and access improve effectiveness and can reduce repeat visits.
- Parking/Travel: Some providers add fees for difficult access or congestion/ULEZ zones.

How to Keep Your Costs Down
