Review from Sarah P.

Jeremy is the most informative, patient, calming guy in the business. I worked with two of his dog handlers, and both were incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. They always took their time, answered every question five times over, and understood the crazy that goes along with this pest.
Five months after moving to New York, I got bedbugs from my neighbors. My landlord brought in their shady pest control guy, and I continued to get bitten, and didn't have anyone to work with to develop a game plan to tackle the problem effectively. So,of course, I did everything you don't need to do. I threw away all of my new furniture, and high tailed it out of there with only my dry cleaned clothes and dishes with me. For 2 years I lived in constant fear of ever going through this again. My friends made fun of me for being obsessive about the bugs , but when you flee a problem rather than dealing with it, you don't have a good grip on the reality that they are something you can tackle. At one point in my new place I found a bug that I couldn't identify, and Jeremy came over and reassured me that it was not anything to worry about.
Well, even after living practically in a bubble for 2 years, somehow, the little critters found their way back into my life. House guests? Work? Who knows. They got me. This time, though, they would not win. I called Jeremy and he immediately put me at ease. He linked me up with a good pest control company, took my calls when I was in hysterics, and never made me feel like a crazy person. He was reassuring, and always went the extra mile to ensure that I was getting the best treatment both from his company and the pest control I worked with.
I know this is a long review, but I honestly think this man is a saint. He is a good guy in a dirty business. If more people like him existed in this field, people wouldn't feel so out of control and fearful of this bug. I opened this yelp account just to write this review. Jeremy and his company are worth it! -

Giving Jeremy 5 stars for service and speed, although I did not actually have an inspector come to my house. My wife and I had just talked ourselves down from a bed bug scare, as we realized the insect bites we were concerned about did not match the description of bedbug bites. However, when I then found a couple of possible "bedbug shells" under the bed, I called the Bed Bug Inspectors. Jeremy called me back within a couple of hours (on a Sunday afternoon), and when I explained the situation he was kind enough to review a photo of the "shells" for free, and immediately (over email). He confirmed that they are NOT bedbugs, and set my mind at ease.
God willing I will never need his services, but I would certainly call Jeremy again and recommend him to my friends. -

It all started while I was at a party . . . During an otherwise erudite discussion with some friends, a woman interrupted the conversation and said, "I'm sorry if I keep scratching, but I have a bed bug problem." After my weak attempt at concealing my dry heaves, I inquired as to what proactive methods she took to ameliorate the problem. Her answer: "I wear a hoodie and sweats to bed." After stifling my anger (Hello, why the hell haven't you quarantined yourself?! It's called the internet!), I forgot about it and went about my business.
About four days later and two parties later, I got these curious bites on my legs that WOULD NOT stop itching. I immediately went online and and began my investigation on http://bedbugger.com
My beds were clear and there were no new vampiric bites. But I couldn't let it go . . .
So I, unlike that aforementioned woman, called the most reputable firm in detection: The Bed Bug Inspectors. They were quick and professional: I called at 11 AM, and by 2 PM Jeremy and Freedom the canine were here. Jeremy explained the process, and within 15 minutes I had peace of mind. While it cost me half a month's rent, my coritsol levels returned to normal.
In short, don't delay and risk exposing your friends or neighbors -- it's unconscionable. Even if there aren't any bed bugs detected. but you suspect them later, The Bed Bug Inspectors will return and reinspect for no fee. Who said there aren't any modern day superheroes? -

To all of you who are apprehensive about having a dog come inspect your apt dont be. Jeremy is very discreet and professional. He came within the time frame he said he would be coming. The dog went to work and did his job. Luckily I didnt have to go any further for now but it was for the piece of mind this service puts you at. I had called another ny bedbug / exterminator only to be hung up on in mid sentence. He wasnt going to take a small case when he has a pool of customers to choose from. This epidemic has put these companies with a wealth of potential clients.They can pick and choose who will bring in the most moeny. This company doesnt have any invested interests in exterminating so you wont find that attitude. I find the solution to this problem is early intervention, educating yourself of what to do and not to do and luck. Best yet you get a discount for being a yelp member! Best luck to all of you who have inherited this problem. So dont wait be proactive and call.
