Why You Have Bed Bugs

Bed Bugs are excellent hitchhikers, and are capable of traveling long distances with an unsuspecting host. Experts believe that recent bed bugs increases in the U.S. may be due to more travel, the prevalence of mass transit, lack of knowledge about prevention, increased resistance to pesticides, and ineffective control practices. These bugs have been found in airplane seats, trains, cabs, and hotel rooms.

Bed Bugs commonly travel in luggage, backpacks, and even in clothing. Once this Bug has hitched a ride, its destination could be anywhere, including health care facilities, public transportation, and private homes. Infestations can be spread by a visiting friend, or by even by a domestic help worker. Often a domestic worker may have a visiting relative that will carry the pest from another county. The bed bug infestation can follow you on clothing or belongings to any destination.

General Facts:

Bed bugs are small parasitic insects that feed on the blood or animals. The adults have a reddish-brown color with oval-shaped bodies that are about ¼ inch in length. Eggs are laid by the females, in batches of about 5 per day. As they hatch they are about the size of a poppy seed but in about 30 to 60 days the newborn bed bugs will be grown and ready to lay their own eggs. These eggs are small, approximately 1mm in size and whitish in color, and this makes them very had to find. Bed Bugs are not known to carry or transmit diseases to humans, but their bites can cause skin irritation. Though many people have no reaction to Bed Bug bites, some experience small red welts that often appear in a line or cluster and may be itchy or painful. Serious health problems can occur if the bites become infected.

Bed Bug Infestation Clues:

Bed bugs are attracted by warmth and carbon dioxide. They are the most active at night because that is when we are warm and sleeping, making people great targets for bed bugs.

Bed Bug Signs:

  • Small spots of blood on mattresses and linens
  • Tiny brown droppings
  • Exoskeletons, or “cast skins” shed by growing nymphs
  • Tiny white eggs and egg casings
  • Bite marks or rashes on the skin (note: not all people develop rashes to the bug bites, and there may not be a visible pattern of skin marks)

The Only Thing Left Buzzing is Praise Customer Reviews

    "Quality and expertise. Awesome service!"

    Anthony was outstanding- really responsive and willing to come out on a Saturday to start taking on some pest control. Just a week later, and there are no more bug problems. It speaks to their quality and expertise. Anthony also took extra time to give my wife and me (new homeowners) some lawn care pointers. Just awesome service!

    Jason W.
    "Timely and professional. Highly recommend!"
    Anthony was excellent! I called last minute looking for help with the elm seed bugs going on this year. He picked right up after hours and was out as quickly as his schedule allowed. Timely and professional. Highly recommend!
    Aaron R.
    "Anthony was amazing! He was professional and understanding."
    Anthony was amazing! He was able to have my house serviced in just a few hours. I had a flying ant infestation and he could tell the concern in my voice. When he was here, he was professional and understanding. We will definitely hire him in the future for anything else that comes up!

    "He is very dependable and easy to work with. He offers quarterly service so we are covered year-round."

    Anthony has been serving our home for several years. He is very dependable and easy to work with. He offers quarterly service so we are covered year-round. The best thing about the service is there are no spiders or ants and it is safe to use around my dogs and cats. I would definitely recommend Apex Pest and Lawn if you are looking for someone who is reliable and still gives you that local, small-business feel.

    Anthony is in my opinion one of the most knowledgeable and best professionals to work with. We have used his service for several years now at our home and business. He is dependable and very price-competitive. He is always thorough and stands behind his work to make sure the customer is taken care of. I will continue to use his service for as long as needed.

    "I would highly recommend Apex and look forward to future visits from them! Thanks guys!"

    Anthony was so professional on the phone, answering all of my questions and was very informative with things I didn’t even think about! Cory was very courteous and professional while treating my backyard for wasps and inside for normal pests. My favorite part was the fact that I called the evening before and they were at my house to spray the next morning (even early to our scheduled time)! I would highly recommend Apex and look forward to future visits from them! Thanks guys!

    Jourdan C.
    "Anthony and his team are great and always very kind."

    APEX started treating my home almost 7 years ago and I’ve been satisfied every single time my home is treated. I am deathly afraid of spiders and when my home is sprayed, I never see any! Anthony and his team are great and always very kind. I recommend APEX to anyone who wants fast results in getting rid of pests!
