BED BUGS

Are you noticing red, itchy bumps after a night in bed? Have you ever looked under your mattress? If you notice rust colored stains you may have a bed bug infestation. Bed Bugs are a small pest making a big comeback in the United States. Bed bugs travel, and spread, easily. They are no reflection on the sanitation of your home or business.

KNOW WHAT’S BUGGING YOU

What do they look like? 

Size: 6-10mm in length/ eggs are up to 2mm in length

Color: Reddish-brown

What are it’s identifying characteristics?

Adult bed bugs are brown, wingless insects with flattened bodies. Their size depends on the amount of blood consumed. When engorged, their bodies change from brown to a dull red color as they swell. They have piercing-sucking mouthparts.

What does it eat?

Bed bugs feed exclusively on the blood of animals and people.

Where does it hide?

Adults and nymphs hide in cracks and crevices of walls, furniture, or other items. They also are found on the tufts, seams, and folds of mattresses.

What can it do to me? 

When bedbugs bite, it is painless, but the insect’s saliva may later cause severe itching around an inflamed bump.
