Methods for accurately and efficiently estimating a disinfestation rate of disinfestation equipment and making adjustments based on the estimated disinfestation rate to achieve a desired disinfestation rate are provided. In one example, a disinfestation rate may be based on a number of infested products in an untreated sample out of a total number of products in the untreated sample and based on a number of infested products in a treated sample out of a total number of products in the treated sample. The estimated disinfestation rate may displayed, for example, and parameters of the disinfestation equipment may be adjusted in response to the estimated disinfestation rate
