KNOW THE ENEMY: BED BUGS

Have you been searching for how to get rid of bed bugs? Once an afterthought, these pests have made quite the resurgence recently. The more you know about bed bugs, the better your chances of avoiding them.


BED BUG BASICS


This pest gets its name from the fact that it is usually found in close proximity to beds. That’s because bed bugs need the blood of warm-blooded animals to survive.


Unfortunately, bed bugs can mature in about 35 days. They then live about seven to 12 months. This makes bed bug removal difficult to do without the help of a professional.

BED BUGS ON THE HUNT


How do bed bugs find hosts while they are asleep? Body heat, the carbon dioxide from exhaled breath and other biological signatures help focus the bed bugs on unsuspecting, snoozing hosts.


The bed bug feeds, then retreats back to its place of harborage for days or even weeks before coming back out. This can make detection difficult until the infestation is well established.

BED BUG BITE


Bed bugs primarily feed on humans sleeping in bed at night. The bite is painless, and the blood meal takes about 10 minutes.

BED BUGS ON THE MOVE


Bed bugs are skilled hitchhikers. In fact, they are primarily transported by humans and human belongings like suitcases.

KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN FOR BED BUGS

The smaller the infestation, the easier bed bug extermination is to conduct. That’s why it’s important to spot any

possible infestation as early as possible. If you have bed bugs this is a time sensitive thing

SIGNS OF BED BUGS


Bed bugs are good at hiding, but not good at hiding evidence. The careless clues they leave are the best indicator your room is overrun with bed bugs. The clues to look for include:

  • Shed bed bug skins, exoskeletons or shells
  • Fecal stains on your mattress and bedding
  • Blood stains on your sheets and pajamas


SIGNS OF BED BUG BITES


Bed bug bite reactions in skin look similar to those caused by fleas and mosquitoes. Telling which insect caused a bite might not be possible.

Look for these signs of symptoms of a bed bug bite:

Raised, red welts

Burning and itching

Bed bug bite rash across a localized area

Straight lines of multiple bites

WHERE TO LOOK FOR BED BUGS


Proper bed bug control requires a watchful eye. To feed on humans, bed bugs want close proximity to the host.


In the bedroom, box springs, headboards and bed framing are favorite spots for these pests. They may also settle into furniture and fixtures that are close to a bed.


Bedrooms are not the only place where bed bugs can be a concern. The feeding doesn’t have to be at night. All bed bugs are looking for are human hosts inactive long enough to provide a meal.


Getting rid of bed bugs is difficult. Any place that humans sit, rest or sleep can be a place that bed bugs are introduced or feed.

Sitting for two hours in a movie theater makes you a target.


A favorite recliner in the living room can also make you a target. You can also become a target taking a taxi across town.

PUT BED BUG WORRIES TO REST WHEN YOU TRAVEL


Bed bugs have the ability to spread using unsuspecting people and their belongings as carriers. Following these parameters will put you the position to lower the possibility of you running into bed bugs. More importantly, it will help you minimize the chances of you bringing some home with you.


  • First, check travel reviews before visiting a hotel, and be careful of those with multiple reports of bed bugs.
  • When you check into a hotel, check the mattress, headboard, bed frame and pictures for any signs of bed bugs.
  • Rather than storing luggage on the bed or floor, keep your luggage on the luggage rack.
  • Avoid storing clothes in dressers and hang clothes that can be hung.


Still, there’s no guarantee bed bugs won’t sneak into your home some way. If they do, call Pied Piper Pest Control. Our effective bed bug removal solutions will get them out.
