Bed Bug Control & Prevention
Bed bugs are one of the most resilient and elusive pests, often going undetected until an infestation is well established. These tiny hitchhikers spread easily, hiding in mattresses, furniture, baseboards, and even electrical outlets. Once inside, they multiply rapidly, making early detection and treatment critical.
Comprehensive Inspection
Our licensed technicians begin with a thorough inspection of your home or business, searching for telltale signs of bed bugs, including shed skins, tiny blood spots, eggs, and live activity. If you suspect an issue, providing details about where and when you noticed activity will help us pinpoint the infestation faster.

Once bed bugs are confirmed, we implement a tailored treatment plan using industry-leading solutions designed to eliminate all life stages—from eggs to adults. Depending on the severity of the infestation, treatment may involve:

Identification
How to Identify a Bed Bug
Bed bugs are small, flat, reddish-brown insects that are experts at hiding in mattresses, furniture, and tiny crevices. They are often mistaken for other pests, so knowing their key characteristics can help with accurate identification.
Physical Characteristics of a Bed Bug:
- Size: About 1/4 inch (5-7 mm) long (about the size of an apple seed)
- Shape: Oval, flat body (becomes more elongated after feeding)
- Color: Reddish-brown (turns darker and swollen after feeding)
- Legs & Antennae: Six legs and two short antennae
- Wings: No wings—bed bugs cannot fly or jump
Bed Bug Life Cycle & Growth
Bed bugs multiply rapidly, making professional treatment essential. Here’s what to know about their life cycle:
- Egg Stage (1-2 Weeks): Tiny, pearl-white eggs hatch in about 7-10 days
- Nymph Stage (5 Weeks): Bed bugs go through five nymph stages, feeding on blood at each stage
- Adult Stage (6+ Months): Adult bed bugs can survive months without feeding, making them extremely resilient
Because of their ability to hide, reproduce quickly, and survive long periods without a meal, DIY treatments are rarely effective. Professional treatment is the only reliable way to eliminate an infestation.
Signs of a Bed Bug Infestation:
- Small Blood Stains – Rust-colored or red spots on sheets and pillowcases
- Dark Fecal Spots – Tiny black or brown droppings on mattresses, furniture, or walls
- Shed Skins & Eggs – Translucent exoskeletons and tiny, pearl-white eggs in crevices
- Itchy Red Bites – Clusters or lines of bites, often on exposed skin like arms, legs, and neck
- Musty Odor – A sweet, musty smell in heavy infestations caused by bed bug pheromones
Where to Look for Bed Bugs:
- Mattresses & Box Springs – Along seams, tufts, and under tags
- Bed Frames & Headboards – In cracks, joints, and behind headboards
- Furniture & Upholstery – Inside couches, chairs, and nightstands
- Baseboards & Electrical Outlets – Behind loose wallpaper, inside outlets, and wall voids
- Luggage & Clothing – Bed bugs hitchhike on bags, clothes, and secondhand furniture

- Mattresses & Box Springs – Their favorite hiding place near food sources
- Furniture & Upholstery – Couches, recliners, and chairs can harbor hidden infestations
- Cracks & Crevices – Baseboards, nightstands, and headboards are prime hiding spots
- Luggage & Clothing – Bed bugs often spread through travel and secondhand items
How Bed Bugs Spread

Prevention Tips
Bed Bug Prevention Tips
While professional treatment is the most effective way to eliminate bed bugs, taking precautions can help prevent future infestations:
Be Cautious When Traveling
- Inspect hotel beds, headboards, and furniture before settling in
- Keep luggage off the floor and away from the bed
- Wash and dry clothes on high heat after returning from a trip
Inspect Secondhand Items
- Avoid bringing home used mattresses, furniture, or clothing unless thoroughly inspected
- Look for tiny dark spots, eggs, or shed skins before purchasing secondhand items
Reduce Clutter in Sleeping Areas
- Keep belongings off the floor and away from walls to reduce hiding spots
- Regularly vacuum and clean around bed frames, furniture, and baseboards
Seal Entry Points in Multi-Unit Buildings
- Use caulk or sealants to block gaps in walls, outlets, and baseboards
- Install mattress and box spring encasements to prevent hidden infestations
Avoid DIY Treatments (Do-It-Yourself Treatments)
- Over-the-counter sprays and DIY remedies often make infestations worse by scattering bed bugs into harder-to-reach areas
- Bed bugs are highly resistant to many store-bought pesticides, making professional treatment the only reliable solution
