Typical DIY or do it yourself treatment methods don’t work and often lead to an explosion in bed bugs as they continue to live and go through their reproductive life cycle.

If you are just starting the journey to find answers to your bed bug questions then you are going to come across a lot of information on the internet about how to get rid of bed bugs.

How can you know which advice is good and which advice will just waste your time and money as you try to stop the difficult bed bug problem you are facing?

Here is the simple answer to that question. Each case can be different and may require a different treatment method or a combination of different treatment methods to effectively eradicate the bed bug problem. That is why we recommend contacting our Fort Lauderdale bed bug experts and get a correct answer to help you decide what to do.

For example, there is a lot of information on the internet and many companies who only use heat treatments to get rid of bed bugs. However, heat is not the best treatment in all types of housing. Sometimes heat can push the bed bugs into different parts of a multi-level building causing further problems and causing the bed bugs to remerge later. There are also other pros and cons to consider.

Some people suggest DIY (Do It Yourself) natural methods of killing bed bugs such as tea tree essential oils or diatomaceous earth dusting treatments.

Others suggest over the counter sprays and mattress encasements to try to control and prevent bed bugs.

The reason your reading this right now is either because you have tried those methods and they have’t worked or you are trying to prevent yourself from wasting your time with outdated bed bug extermination as you figure out the best plan. So give us a call now and we will help point you in the right direction about what bed bug treatment will work best in your case.

Lots of our customers ask us what they should do to get ready for a bed bug treatment.

Yes, our process kills the bed bugs in all stages of their lifecycle, including their eggs. 

By getting rid of bed bug eggs we are able to stop the reproduction cycle where it starts and prevent even hard to see eggs from hatching.

Despite our best efforts and top level bed bug treatments, sometimes they come back or we miss a few on the initial treatment. So if bed bugs return, so do we! All of our bed bug treatments come with a warranty. Make sure to ask about our 30, 60, or 90 day bed bug guarantee when you request your free quote.

Sometimes an area can be so infested with bed bugs that they will return and that is to be expected. That’s why we stay by your side every step of the way until they are gone for good.

Many of our customers are concerned about any bed bugs that may have gotten in their vehicle and might remain in the car even after their house is treated. 

In order to fix this problem we also treat any vehicles you have at the same time that we treat your home. 

This makes sure that if the bed bugs came from your car that the problem is stopped there. It also prevents any possibility of a missed bed bug from getting in your car and coming back to your house weeks or months later. 

Very few bed bug pest control companies actually take this important and necessary step which is why other companies have to come back out and re-treat the home again after the initial service. 

The fastest way to get rid of bed bugs in your home, apartment, office, hotel room, hospital room, or nursing home is to have a bed bug exterminator make a same day visit and perform a bed bug treatment on the affected area. 

Often times a customer will try a do it yourself (DIY) product or technique trying to get rid of their bed bug problem as cheaply as possible. 

While this makes sense at first, what many don’t realize is that the longer you wait the more the bed bug infestation can spread. In addition, bed bugs can be elusive to the untrained eye. If a trained professional doesn’t kill bed bugs properly in every affected area of the home then the problem will return. 

So the fastest way to get rid of bed bugs is to have a bed bug specialist visit the affected location and begin a 4-5 hour treatment immediately. 

In extreme cases where a visible bed bug infestation is present, it may take a couple days for them to die off completely. In most cases, the bed bugs will be eradicated in one day. 

Yes. Adult bed bugs are visible to the trained naked eye. However, if you don’t know what you are looking for, it can be incredibly hard to see a bed bug and they can easily be mistaken for something else.  

It can be easier to identify a bed bug by smell rather than sight. That is why sometimes we use trained K9 bed bug inspection dogs to detect an infestation.  

Trying to identify a baby bed bug (nymph) is much harder. Nymph bed bugs can be clear or transparent making them difficult to see with the naked eye. 

Bed bugs can be as small as the head of a pin depending on what stage of growth they are in. In addition, they are more active at night than during the daytime which makes it harder to see them. 

All of our expert bed bug technicians are trained in inspecting and finding bed bugs.

Our homes, specifically, our bedrooms are a private and personal space. To have an infestation from a nasty bed bug who sucks your blood at night while you are defenseless would make anyone feel helpless. 

Add to that feeling the stigma that if you have bed bugs you must be dirty, unclean, and are a threat to others homes can make someone feel just awful. 

That leads many people to pursue DIY or do it yourself bed bug treatments that in reality cost a lot and don’t work.

Bed bugs are skilled travelers. That is why the most common way for bed bugs to infest your property is by hitching a ride on your clothes or luggage when you stayed in a hotel that had a bedbug infestation. Yet, there are many other ways for bed bugs to come to your home, including:

• Used furniture in a home that had bed bugs.
• Visitors or guests that carried bed bugs to your property.
• Neighbors that have a bad infestation, forcing bedbugs to find a new home.
• High traffic commercial properties, where many people can carry in bed bugs from home.
• Visits to nursing homes, hospitals, and more.

Bed bugs prefer more urban type environments  as there are more humans packed in that they can feed from. 

Bed bugs at the source location often hide in electrical switchplates, picture frames, mattresses, and box springs.

They can also live in and around seats in cars, trains, planes, or busses. They can then transfer from public transportation areas onto individual passengers items and be brought into the home or place of lodging like a hotel.  

The Atlanta Metro area is seeing a bed bug resurgence as a result of frequent travel, dense neighborhoods, and years of outdated pest prevention practices. These parasitic pests can be found throughout Georgia, capable of living and thriving in almost any environment.

Although bed bugs like to live near beds and feed at night, they can survive in office buildings, movie theaters, restaurants, and anywhere else that has a place to hide, and they’re more than willing to feed during the day if needed for survival.

Yes! Assisted living facilities (ALF) and nursing homes are especially susceptible to bed bug infestations. 

Our bed bug removal technique allows you to continue to provide care for your patients without interruption during the safe and non-toxic bed bug treatment. 

We have worked with many assisted living facilities and nursing homes over the years and would be happy to do an on-site visit today! 

Bed bugs are hard to get rid of for the following reasons: 

• They are hard to see and detect. 
• They are excellent at hiding and can stay out for sight for 6-12 months without food. 
• The sheer numbers can make them hard to get rid of. After just 3 months, a single pregnant female bed bug can spawn thousands of other adults, nymphs, or eggs. 
• DIY treatments are ineffective. The typical over the counter products don’t work well and so left untreated bed bug growth can be explosive making it harder to kill an infestation and get rid of them. 

Bed bugs do carry diseases and are parasites that bite and suck human blood.

There is a possibility that you can  get sick from a bed bug. 

Children are susceptible to blood loss danger from bed bugs more than adults, especially if already anemic. 

Thankfully, no proven cases of a transferable communicable disease have been found due to bed bugs.

While similar to mosquitos due to the fact that they consume human blood, their limited travel distances makes it harder for them to come in contact with an infected human and then transfer that disease to someone else.

Bed bugs are very small and hard to see. Male bed bugs are smaller than the females. Both are flat and oval shaped. 

Their colors range from translucent when they are nymphs to bright red if they have just feed on human blood. 

As they digest their meal, they will change colors  from red to brown, then to black. 

Bed bug eggs are whitish to light cream colored. 

To give you some perspective on how small bed bugs can be,  20-40  would fit on the the surface of a penny. 

You can’t tell if you have a bed bug infestation just from looking at what may appear to be bed bug bites. They are easily mistaken for bites from fleas or other insects. 

An infestation of bed bugs can happen to anyone, no matter how clean they keep their home or establishment. 

Bed bugs can be brought into the home from anywhere. Bed bugs are often found in hotels and motels. Family or friends who came over to visit can bring bed bugs. They can be picked up at school, or in dorms. Bed bugs can be found in movie theaters, conference rooms, uber and lyft cars, public transportation, locker rooms, etc. 

So don’t ever feel ashamed that you got bed bugs and think that you are not clean or that the stigma of having bed bugs prevents you from getting the professional help you need to get rid of bed bugs permanently. 

Yes. If you see one bed bug there is a high probability that there are more, many more… 

During the first and second month of a bed bug infestation, they tend to spread slowly. By the third month, the infestation can explode! It is at this time that some of the adult bed bugs will crawl to other rooms within the infected area. 

Within 6 months of bringing a pregnant female bed bug into your home, there can be over  10,000 adults, over 100,000 baby bed bugs (nymphs) and more than 55,000 eggs just waiting to hatch and spread!

Even if they don’t find food in the new area, they can still live for a whole year without eating. In the meantime they can be busy  reproducing and infesting new areas. 

This is one of the primary reasons why we recommend getting professional help with your bed bug problem as soon as possible.
