Bed Bug Treatment

Bed bugs are nature’s hitch hikers and they travel in style. You can pick them up unexpectedly at the movies, airport, hotel & through used furniture amongst many other ways.

Bed bugs begin as very small rice like eggs that are very difficult to see to the untrained eye.

After an adult female bed bug mates, she lays her eggs, generally in cracks and crevices of beds including box springs, headboards, and bed frames. Bed bugs use a special glue to ensure that the eggs stay in place until they hatch.

A single female bed bug can lay between 200 to 500 eggs in her lifetime. That can lead to a lot of bed bugs!

For bed bugs to grow from one instar (life stage) to the next, they must take a blood meal. As bed bugs continue to grow, they must molt (shed their skin casing) to accommodate their growing body size. As time goes on and bed bugs become adults, they take on their dark brown mahogany coloring.

One way to identify a bed bug infestation is by examining the bed for blood spots known as blood meal and looking for live bed bugs and their eggs along with shed skin casings. In addition, the presence of cluster bites on the neck, back and arms can also be a way to identify a bed bug infestation.

Our treatment focuses on areas where bed bugs live and hide such as the bed, bed frame, head board, seams and tufts. We use a treatment that is highly effective and has a long lasting residual that continues to be effective.

In recent years, many pest control companies have been very optimistic about heat treatments and they can be effective. However, because heat is the killing mechanism, once the heat is removed, what kills any surviving or re-introduced bed bugs? The answer is NOTHING because the room is cool again. Heat treatments cost THOUSANDS of dollars and in some cases aren’t even warrantied.

By utilizing products that continue to work beyond the initial treatment, we can give you added peace of mind and save your bank account in the process and we can offer a warranty on our bed bug treatments.
