How this site works
Straight answers about who runs this site and what happens when you call. A site that asks for your trust on bed bugs should earn it on the basics first.
What this site is
Springfield Bed Bug Extermination is an independently operated referral and lead-generation website. We are not a pest control company. We don't have crews, trucks, or pesticide licenses, and we never perform treatments ourselves. We research this market (costs, methods, Missouri's rules) and maintain one phone line that forwards calls to independent local pest control companies serving Springfield and Greene County.
What happens when you call
The number on this site ((417) 555-0123) is a tracking number that forwards your call to an independent local pest control company; we rotate calls among several companies serving the area. You talk to them, they schedule with you, they quote you, and they do the work. There's no markup on your price and no middleman on the call. The tracking number tells us the referral came from this site.
How we make money
Companies receiving these calls may pay us a referral fee; that's the business model this site operates on. You never pay us anything, and your price from the company you hire is the same as if you'd found them any other way.
Our standards
- Verify the license yourself. Missouri requires a Department of Agriculture commercial applicator license (Category 7A, structural pest control) for this work. The companies that take these calls are independent businesses, so verify the companies we connect you with in the state's MOPlants license search before any work starts. We encourage it every time.
- No fake reviews, no invented claims. There are no testimonials on this site because we haven't collected real ones. Every local fact and price we publish is cited to its source, and we cut anything we can't verify.
- No scare tactics. Bed bugs don't transmit disease and they're nobody's fault. We'd rather tell you that inspections are often free than invent an emergency.
If you'd rather not use a referral site
That's fine too. This site's guides work no matter who you hire. Start with what treatment costs here, the method comparison, and the prep checklist, and check any company's license before signing.
