Bedbug Pest Control
For most of us, the thought of bugs living in our beds makes our skin crawl. Having an infestation of bedbugs does not mean you have a dirty house – or habits. Bedbugs are extremely common and can often go unnoticed. Once you become aware of them, you may need to call in professional pest controllers to remove them from your home.
What are bedbugs?
With the real name Cimex lectularius, bedbugs feed on the human blood. About 5mm long, they live in crevices in walls and furniture and are particularly fond of second-hand furniture. Coming out only at night, bedbugs pierce our skin to feed, which can cause irritation in some of us. They can also be responsible for our losing a lot of blood over time.
Tiny dark spots on your bed or mattress, caused by excrement or blood, can be a sign of bedbugs. Female bedbugs can lay 200 eggs at a time, several times a year and go without food for over a year. As you can see, this is a problem that won't go away on its own. So what forms of pest control can you use against them?
Beating the bedbugs
It is a good idea to seek advice from professional pest controllers if you are unsure of the scale of your problem. They can assess your situation and advise you which method to use. You can choose from a range of spray and smoke products – natural and chemical, to rid your room of bedbugs. Make sure you read the instructions carefully if you are doing it yourself.
