Bedbug Pest Control

Bed bugs are small, parasitic insects that feed on the blood of humans and animals. They have oval, flat bodies and are typically brownish in color, but after feeding, their bodies become swollen and reddish. These pests are about the size of an apple seed, making them difficult to detect until an infestation grows.

How Bed Bugs Spread & Reproduce

Despite their lack of wings, bed bugs move quickly across floors, walls, and ceilings. Their ability to hide in cracks, furniture, and bedding makes them persistent household pests.

• Rapid Reproduction: A single female bed bug can lay hundreds of eggs in her lifetime, with each egg no larger than a speck of dust.
• Nymph Development: Immature bed bugs (nymphs) must feed on blood before each molting stage, shedding their skin five times before reaching adulthood.
• Fast Life Cycle: In ideal conditions, bed bugs can mature in just one month, leading to multiple generations per year.

Do Bed Bugs Carry Diseases?

While bed bugs are a major nuisance due to their bites and ability to multiply quickly, they are not known to transmit diseases. However, their presence can cause itching, allergic reactions, and sleep disturbances, making it essential to eliminate infestations as soon as possible.

Bed bugs can enter a home undetected by hitchhiking on luggage, clothing, second-hand furniture, and other household items. Their flat bodies enable them to squeeze into tight spaces as narrow as a credit card, making them difficult to spot. Unlike ants or bees, bed bugs do not build nests but prefer to hide in groups in secluded areas. They are commonly found in mattresses, box springs, bed frames, and headboards, positioning themselves close to sleeping humans for easy access to a blood meal.

Over time, bed bugs can spread throughout a bedroom, hiding in wall cracks, furniture joints, and even electrical outlets. If left untreated, they can move into other rooms or neighboring apartments, making the infestation harder to control. Since bed bugs rely solely on blood for survival, their presence is not linked to cleanliness and can be found in well-maintained homes and high-end hotels alike.
When Bedbugs Bite

Primarily active at night, bed bugs bite people while they sleep. Using their elongated mouthparts, they pierce the skin and extract blood for three to ten minutes before crawling away unnoticed. Initially, their bites are painless but later develop into itchy welts. Unlike flea bites, which are concentrated around the ankles and have a red center, bed bug bites can appear on any exposed skin without a central red mark.

A detailed inspection and correct identification by a trained pest professional is the first step toward effective bed bug eradication. Like many other insects, bed bugs seek shelter in small cracks and crevices that provide security. Homes with excess clutter create additional hiding spots, making detection and treatment more challenging. Common places where bed bugs hide include mattresses, curtains, furniture, and piles of unwashed clothing.

Successful bed bug control requires a comprehensive approach that includes proper sanitation, strategic treatment applications, and exclusion methods to prevent reinfestation. Relying on experienced and knowledgeable pest control professionals ensures the best chance of completely eliminating bed bugs and restoring comfort to your home.
