How Do Bed Bugs Look and Can They Be Eliminated Fast by a Pest Control Company?
The first thing that you need to know about smelly bed bugs is that they are very small (about â…œ” long and 3/16” wide) which makes them extremely hard to see. They love warm-blooded species like humans because they feed on their blood. If you don’t want to get constantly bitten by them while sleeping in unsanitary bedding and mattresses (usually in hotels and motels), then make sure to call a pest control company for a bed bug inspection as soon as you suspect that you have a problem. Even if they are not in your bed, bed bugs can sometimes hide in the carpets where your kids and pets play or in wall cracks.
Bed bugs are amazing travelers!
These pests are so invasive because they can travel on clothes and even in your luggage. This means you can easily transport them to your home from the hotel where you have been for a weekend business seminar or from the coach at your friend’s house. If you are not careful for a moment, they can “jump” on your clothes or luggage. In order to help you avoid transporting these, we recommend you to make a thorough bed bug inspection every time when you check in a hotel room and change it when you have doubts about an infestation.
They do not bite as aggressively as mosquitoes, fleas and other blood-feeding insects, but they can still cause minor allergic reactions. They are active at night, so it will be best to book a pest control company to “hunt” them during the day.
