Request an Inspection

Hotels, cabins, lodges, and short-term rentals across East Tennessee cannot afford a slow bed bug response. Chappell’s Pest Control — based at 241 Old Watauga Rd. in Elizabethton — specializes in hospitality bed bug work for the Tri-Cities and the Smokies corridor of Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, and Sevierville.

Call (423) 542-9601 for same-day guidance, or use our contact form to request an inspection for one property or a multi-unit portfolio.

Thermal Heat

SAME-DAY ROOM TURNAROUND

Whole-room heat remediation that reaches harborage areas so hospitality rooms can return to inventory when conditions allow.

K-9 Detection

CERTIFIED CANINE INSPECTIONS

Odor-trained K-9 teams help confirm activity before and after treatment for hotels, cabins, and multi-unit portfolios.

Protection Plan

ONGOING HOSPITALITY COVERAGE

Recurring K-9 inspections with eradication coverage for enrolled hospitality and cabin rental accounts.

BUILT FOR OCCUPANCY, NOT OVERNIGHT DISRUPTION

Guest complaints and online reviews move faster than a multi-day chemical schedule. Our hospitality approach is designed around room turnaround: locate activity quickly, treat with thermal heat remediation when heat is the right fit, and get rooms back into inventory the same day whenever the situation allows.

BED BUG PROTECTION PLAN FOR HOSPITALITY

Our Bed Bug Protection Plan works almost like insurance for hotels and cabin rental companies: a flat monthly fee, quarterly canine inspections of each enrolled room, and you will not pay extra for eradication if we find bed bugs in a covered unit. Use it to answer guest questions confidently — and keep rooms in inventory.
