Say Goodnight to Bed Bugs With Pest Control Services

Ants are social insects that live in colonies and work together to find food. In every colony, worker ants go out to find new food sources food. Once a new source has been discovered, they lay a trail back to their colony to alert ants about the new location.

While this food cycle works well in the wild, it can be detrimental to a person’s home if the new food source is located inside of their house. When this happens, an ant infestation can quickly grow out of control as thousands of ants make a beeline for their newly discovered source of food and water.

How to Determine if You Have Bed Bugs

Bed bugs are flat, oval-shaped insects that feed on the blood of humans and animals. The pests are not known to carry diseases; however, some individuals suffer from short-lived allergic reactions from the bites, including red welts and itchiness. Sufferers may feel self-conscious about the welts that commonly appear on the face, hands, neck, and torso areas.

In some individuals, scratching welts has led to a skin infection. Others find it difficult to sleep at night because they worry about being bitten. In any case, the bugs are considered a nuisance, and once a bed bug population is established, it is hard to eliminate them.

An adult bedbug is about the size of an apple seed. However, many people never actually see the bugs because they take cover in cracks and crevasses in furniture, walls, and floors. One of the easiest ways to determine if there is an infestation in the home or at a hotel is to inspect the bedding area.

Typical signs of infestation include dried blood or dark spots around the seams of mattresses or between the mattress and the headboard. Shed skin and eggs may also be found in these areas.

Don't Delay — Call Pest Control Professionals Right Away

A bed bug is not able to fly, but they can move very fast. They have been known to spread throughout apartment buildings and hotels. They can also spread by hitching a ride on contaminated clothing or luggage. Since the bugs can live about a year without feeding, they can already be present in apartments and rooms that have not been occupied for some time.

Treatment is best handled by a professional. This process should start as soon as the bed bug infestation is discovered. Putting off professional treatment allows the pests to breed and spread to other areas of the home or building. An infestation is always easier and cheaper to remedy in the early stages.
