Bed Bugs 101: What You Need to Know About Them

Bed bugs are not harmful, and their bites do not spread disease. They are extremely disgusting though, and can cause your family undue psychological stress. They typically feed between midnight and 5:00 AM. Females can lay 5 to 20 eggs after a meal; eggs which can be difficult to kill. They are excellent survivors, which is why do-it-yourself solutions can be ineffective – bed bugs move quickly and hide when they sense danger, especially if they smell chemicals or odors of substances that might kill them. Bed bug exterminators like Presidio know their habits and know how to get rid of them before they go deep in to hiding. Our pest professionals help with the problem quickly so your home is safe again.

Are DIY Bed Bug Treatments Effective?

Common household remedies are not effective at killing more than one or two bed bugs at a time, and in fact, they can make the problem worse by sending them into survival mode! Bed bugs are survivors, they breed quickly, and they think YOUR warm, safe home is the best place ever. If you introduce a chemical substance with a strong odor to kill a small number of bed bugs, any that remain will go into hiding – and come back out again when the danger has passed.

Luckily, experienced exterminators know how to get rid of bed bugs, from knowing where they hide down to killing eggs, which are often more difficult to get rid of than the bed bugs themselves.
