Mystery Bites
Bed bugs can be extremely secretive, with many individuals sharing a bed with them not knowing they are there until they begin receiving strange bites on their bodies. Bed bugs require a blood meal for survival, generally spending roughly 10 minutes feeding before becoming engorged with blood. However, finding mystery bites isn’t a tell-tale sign that bed bugs are present because they could be coming from a different source.
Traces of Bed Bugs
Much like other pests, bed bugs have a tendency to leave behind signs of their presence. When dealing with a bed bug infestation, it is not uncommon to find small blood spots on your bedsheets or skin casings and rust colored feces in the piping of your mattress. If any of these signs are observed in your bed or similar area, it could signify a larger problem that will require professional assistance.
Live Bed Bugs
Seeing a live bed bug is generally one of the easiest ways to determine if they have made their way into your home or business. When found, try to trap one of these pests in a sealed container to allow a pest control specialist to observe it. This can help determine if you are actually dealing with bed bugs or another similar looking pest and implement bed bug control.
