Bed bugs do not care how tidy a home is. They travel in luggage, purses, laundry baskets and furniture.
Paramount is a Gateway Cities community in southeast Los Angeles County, bordered by Compton, Lynwood, South Gate, Downey, Bellflower and Long Beach. The 2020 Census counted 53,733 residents on about 4.7 square miles of land. The area was once hay and dairy country. Hay traders met daily under the Hay Tree, a camphor tree that is now a California Historical Landmark, and the last local dairy closed in 1977. In 1948 the Hynes and Clearwater post offices merged under the name Paramount, taken from Paramount Boulevard, and the city incorporated in 1957. The Zamboni family has run the Iceland skating rink here since about 1940, and the Zamboni Company that grew out of Frank Zamboni's first ice resurfacer still has its headquarters in town. Factories, a weekend market and nearby freeways keep people moving, and bed bugs ride along.
Swap Meet Finds and Secondhand Furniture in Paramount
The Paramount Swap Meet, an open-air market on the old drive-in grounds off Rosecrans Avenue, sells thrift and vintage clothing, tools, household goods and much more. Used furniture, bed frames and cloth items are a known way for bed bugs to move from one home to the next, wherever they are bought.
- Shine a flashlight into seams, screw holes, drawer runners and the underside of any wood piece.
- Run fabric items, bags and clothing through a hot dryer for at least 30 minutes before use.
- Skip used mattresses and box springs unless you can see they are clean and sealed.
Mobilehome Parks in Paramount
Paramount has several mobilehome parks, and in 2026 the city approved a long-term agreement with park owners on space rent increases. That agreement covers rent, not pests. Inside a manufactured home, bed bugs hide in built-in bed platforms, wall paneling seams, window trim and the gap under cabinets. Heat often works well in a single-wide or double-wide because the space is compact, but the crew must protect plastic plumbing, vinyl and any items that warp. Owners usually arrange treatment themselves.

Renting in Paramount? California Law Is on Your Side
California Civil Code 1954.600 to 1954.605, known as AB 551, lists what landlords must do about bed bugs anywhere in the state. In Paramount it covers rented houses, apartments, rented rooms and rented mobile homes.
- Landlords must give tenants a written bed bug notice.
- A landlord cannot show, rent or lease a unit they know has bed bugs.
- After a licensed pest control operator inspects, the landlord must share the findings with affected tenants within 2 business days.
- Tenants who report bed bugs are protected from retaliation.
Put your report in writing and save a copy with the date. If you rent a coach in a mobilehome park, send the notice to the person or company you pay rent to, not only to the park office.
What Bed Bug Treatment Costs
No two quotes match, since home size, the number of rooms with bugs and the chosen method all move the number. For a rough guide, Angi's 2026 US averages put a visual inspection at $65 to $200, a dog search at $300 to $600 and treatment at $200 to $400 per room. Whole-home jobs tend to fall between $1,500 and $6,200.
Paramount Bed Bug Questions
Is all of Paramount inside ZIP 90723?
Close to it. The city and ZIP 90723 cover nearly the same ground, so a request from Paramount Boulevard, Rosecrans Avenue, Alondra Boulevard or Somerset Boulevard goes to our team, which already works across 90723.
I bought a dresser at the swap meet and now I see small bugs. What should I do first?
Keep the piece where it is, do not move it from room to room, and avoid spraying it. Snap clear photos of any bugs or dark specks, then ask for an inspection so a technician can check the dresser and the beds closest to it.
We own our mobile home but rent the space. Who pays for bed bug treatment?
In most Paramount mobilehome parks the resident owns the coach, so treatment inside it is usually the owner's decision and cost. If you rent the coach itself from someone else, the AB 551 landlord rules apply to that rental. Check your space agreement for anything the park requires.
What does bed bug treatment usually cost?
Angi's 2026 US averages give about $200 to $400 for one treated room and roughly $1,500 to $6,200 for a whole home. Your actual figure comes from the written quote we prepare after we see the rooms involved.
Will a store fogger clear bed bugs out of my Paramount home?
Almost never. Fogger mist settles on open surfaces while bed bugs stay packed into seams, joints and cracks, and many local populations tolerate the common shelf ingredients. Foggers can also push bugs into the next room.
