Bed Bugs Pest Control Starting at $499

Bed bugs are a growing problem in New York City, impacting families and businesses. This resurgence creates a social stigma, leaving many hesitant to discuss infestations with friends, family, or neighbors for fear of judgment.

Understanding Bed Bugs

Bed bugs are small, wingless, parasitic insects that feed on the blood of mammals, particularly humans. They often target people while they sleep, hence their name. These stealthy pests can quickly feed and retreat, often without being noticed. They use heat sensors to locate their hosts and can detect the carbon dioxide in exhaled breath. The resulting itch is an allergic reaction to the fluids they inject to prevent blood clotting. Bed bugs can survive for months, even up to a year, without feeding. They commonly hide in cracks and crevices of wooden furniture, including bunk beds, platform beds, dressers, night tables, and even some toys.

Do You Have Bed Bugs?

Several signs can indicate a bed bug infestation:

  • Bloodstains: Small blood spots on your mattress or pillows.
  • Shed Skin: Discarded exoskeletons (shed skin) of bed bugs.
  • Bites: Bites, often appearing in groups of three, on exposed skin such as arms, legs, back, or waist.
  • Neighbor Infestation: If your neighbors have had bed bugs, you’re at increased risk.
  • Multi-Dwelling Buildings: In buildings with 10 or more units and a history of infestations, the risk of re-infestation is higher if treatments aren’t thorough. Moving may not solve the problem, as bed bugs can easily travel with you (up to an 80% chance).

Bed Bugs Pest Control: Avoiding Common Mistakes

Store-Bought Products: While readily available, over-the-counter bed bug pesticides often lack the potency of professional-grade treatments. The Environmental Protection Agency limits the concentration of active ingredients in products sold to the public, making them less effective for long-term control. If these products were sufficient, professional pest control services wouldn’t be necessary.

Bed Bug Sniffing Dogs: While some companies use canine detection, this method has limitations. Dogs can only detect infestations within their immediate reach, potentially missing hidden populations. Furthermore, this method doesn’t prevent future infestations. While helpful in finding the problem, the dogs cannot continue to assist during the treatment phase due to the risk of chemical exposure and would have to wait for the chemicals to dissipate before they can be used again. This means you’ve spent money on the dog and still need to pay for treatment.
