Bed bugs have become more persistent as they are becoming more resistant to pesticides. This is why having an experienced bed bug exterminator who knows how to treat these pests is critical. These pests are nocturnal, small, wingless bugs that get their blood meal from humans while they sleep. They are reddish brown and are about the size of a ladybug when they are fully mature. Bed bugs crawl or hitch a ride from place to place in a person’s belongings. Bed bugs live close to their source of food and can fit into paper thin cracks. They can also survive for months without a blood meal which is what makes these bugs so difficult to treat. You will find them in your mattress and box spring, but they can also live in your bed frame or walls of your home. They locate their food source by following the warmth and the carbon dioxide that humans and pets breathe.
When a bed bug finds its host, they secrete a chemical that doubles as an anesthetic and an anticoagulant which helps them remain undetected while they feed. These bed bug bites are usually not noticed until morning when itchy or painful welts develop. There are even instances when people do not have a reaction to the bites which leads to a massive infestation as the problem goes unnoticed for some time.
Bed bugs shed their skins as they grow from nymphs into adults. They will shed 5 times as they grow and these molted skins will be left in the creases of mattresses where they are most likely to be found.
Small black, brown, or dark red spots could indicate where bed bugs have left fecal stains from blood meal excrements. If there are several grouped together, this could indicate that a much larger infestation exists.
The most common giveaway that you have bed bugs is the bites they leave after feeding on a host at night. These raised red welts can take up to a few days to appear depending on how an individual reacts and are itchy and generally lines or patches of multiple bites.
DIY methods are normally not recommended as untrained attempts to exterminate bed bugs will often result in bed bugs being spread to areas that were once clear of an infestation. This happens when contaminated furniture, bedding, or clothing is moved to a clean area while the infested area is being treated. This is why the benefits of having a licensed pest control specialist is always worth the cost in not only money but also in time and mental health.
The California Department of Public Health, Vector Borne Disease Section recommends hiring licensed exterminators to eliminate all bed bugs to prevent the infestation from spreading. All In One utilizes a process that has proven to be effective when fighting bed bugs which also comes with a guarantee. We inspect a property first to identify where the bed bugs may be hiding. Once a problematic area is identified, All In One utilizes one of the following treatments.
Conventional Chemical Treatment – If your bed bug problem was found early and has not become a widespread infestation, local treatment options still might work. These local treatments use chemical sprays and dusts to reach areas that have shown signs of bed bug activity to cover the area with pesticides that will kill the bed bugs off.
Heat Remediation – Bed bugs have a thermal death threshold and once an area reaches 120 degrees Fahrenheit, bed bugs will start to die. All In One uses commercial grade heaters to maintain these temperatures until they permeate every inch of an infested area to ensure the bed bugs are dead.
Steam Treatment – Another heat treatment option uses steam which can be applied to surfaces and crevices to kill bed bugs and their eggs immediately. This high heat option is more localized than full structure heat treatment but is effective on contact.
Fumigation – For the most extreme infestations, bed bug fumigation is another option that will permeate every inch of a structure including the interior of walls. This treatment option will require a family to move while being completed but is generally one of the more effective methods of treatment.
Most people have an allergic reaction to the chemicals bed bugs secrete when feeding which causes itchy red welts. The other impacts that bed bugs have on humans are emotional trauma and sleep deprivation.
Bed bugs hitch rides from unsuspecting travelers who have had stayed where bed bugs have previously infested. They can be picked up at hotels, dorms, and anywhere else that is commonly used by the public. They can also travel through walls in condos or apartments after they have been brought into a building.
Preventing bed bugs means keeping them out of your home in the first place. Be sure to:
There are a several methods of treatment that are effective in killing bed bugs. Chemical pesticides, extreme heat, and rubbing alcohol mixtures are effective at killing bed bugs. High heat and rubbing alcohol mixes dissipate quickly which make them a safer alternative but professional help is still recommended to ensure complete eradication.
