Bed bugs are a source of vexation that most households can do without. These bugs are infamous bloodsuckers and have a liking for warm blooded animals like cats, dogs and humans, with humans being their first choice. Pest control efforts should be carried out seriously if this problem is to be done away with.

Travellers are most of the times to blame for transmission of bed bugs, and once these bugs adapt to new surroundings, they reproduce very fast. They usually thrive in the gaps and cracks of beds, carpets and home furniture.

A widely held belief about bed bugs is that they multiply in places with poor standards of cleanliness and sanitation, but this is a misconception. Bed bugs are pests that are thirsty for blood and not waste, and thus trash removal is not a very useful way to control them. However, keeping the surroundings sanitized and dirt free can help in easy spotting of these bugs.

That bed bugs are too tiny to be visible without any visual aid is another mistaken belief. In fact, these creatures can be spotted without any difficulty, yet we rarely see them because they have flat bodies that help them disappear easily in narrow slits of furniture or layers of fabric.

Bed bugs bite. They can survive long without eating – up to 6 months or a year.

One of the simplest ways to remove bed bugs is to hire an experienced pest controller who can sanitize the house of these pests. Of course some home solutions do fight bed bugs, like washing bed sheets, carpets and other affected items of clothing in hot water and afterwards putting them out to dry in the sun. It is necessary to plug all crevices in the walls and replace furniture that has holes in it, so that these bugs don’t get any place to reproduce.
