How to Tell If You Have Bed Bugs
If you suspect bed bugs, Presidio recommends performing a self-inspection immediately. Get a bright flashlight and begin to look in “hiding places” around your bed. Check the mattress and its seams, crevices of the bed frame, screw holes in the bed frame, bedding, etc. Look for signs you have bed bugs. You’ll need to hire a bed bug exterminator if you find:
Small brown or dark red spots on your bedding;
Small groups of red, possibly itchy bites on you or your children’s skin;
An actual bed bug, looks like a small apple seed.
It is extremely important to act quickly and begin bed bug treatment if you find any of these, especially if you’ve had bed bugs in the past, before they continue to spread and lay eggs.
Bed Bugs 101: What You Need to Know About Them
Bed bugs are not harmful, and their bites do not spread disease. They are extremely disgusting though, and can cause your family undue psychological stress. They typically feed between midnight and 5:00 AM. Females can lay 5 to 20 eggs after a meal; eggs which can be difficult to kill. They are excellent survivors, which is why do-it-yourself solutions can be ineffective – bed bugs move quickly and hide when they sense danger, especially if they smell chemicals or odors of substances that might kill them. Bed bug exterminators like Presidio know their habits and know how to get rid of them before they go deep in to hiding. Our pest professionals help with the problem quickly so your home is safe again.
Are DIY Bed Bug Treatments Effective?
Common household remedies are not effective at killing more than one or two bed bugs at a time, and in fact, they can make the problem worse by sending them into survival mode! Bed bugs are survivors, they breed quickly, and they think YOUR warm, safe home is the best place ever. If you introduce a chemical substance with a strong odor to kill a small number of bed bugs, any that remain will go into hiding – and come back out again when the danger has passed.
Luckily, experienced exterminators know how to get rid of bed bugs, from knowing where they hide down to killing eggs, which are often more difficult to get rid of than the bed bugs themselves.
