If you believe you have bed bugs, we need to get to work. Our first recommendation: Educate yourself about bed bugs and steps you can take NOW to fight back. Below, we’ll talk about the bed bug life cycle, how they infest, how they breed, how to kill them, and how to prevent bed bugs in the future. We’ll empower you with ways you can begin to control a growing bed bug problem before an exterminator arrives on-site.

How Do You Know 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.
