Having trouble sleeping again no thanks to bed bugs? It’s not just a myth. Bed bugs have become increasingly common in North America. Many Canadians are affected by this pest that causes stress, insomnia, and bite marks. Even worse, getting rid of bed bugs is an extremely difficult pest. Find the best bed bug control company to end your waking nightmares and start peacefully dreaming again.
The Trouble With Bed Bugs
Bed bugs are one of the most difficult pests to get rid of. This is because a bed bug can live for up to half a year without feeding. A single uncaught bed bug could result in an infestation returning. In fact, it’s a common occurrence for bed bugs to return at least once.
Additionally, bed bug eggs are extremely resistant to a number of different pest control methods such as pesticides and physical removal. They are small enough that it is impossible to identify them by sight alone. This means that if all the bed bug eggs are not completely exterminated, a bed bug infestation can return even if all the adult bed bugs have been eliminated.
The Difference With Modern Bed Bugs
Bed bugs used to be nearly eradicated in Western countries during the 1940s due to the widespread use of pesticides. However, in recent times, they have made a comeback, much to the horrors of homeowners and renters alike. This is because modern bed bugs have grown resistant to many pesticides that are still effective on other insects.
Why Bed Bugs Return Again and Again…
Bed bugs can be found throughout the home such as furnitures, sofas, fabrics, clothings, floors, cabinets, tables, chairs, in appliances, and in the drywalls and foundations.
Bed bugs can easily travel to other rooms and areas in the building by crawling on the floor and/or through the walls. This means that an infestation is rarely isolated in one room in a house or one apartment in a building. That’s why it’s strongly recommended by professionals that all rooms and apartments are treated, even if bed bugs were only found in one room or apartment.
Prevent Bed Bugs From Spreading In Your Home
Preventing the infestation from spreading or becoming worse is one of the most important steps in solving the problem. This means isolating regions that bed bugs are found to be in and keeping clean areas separate.
Here are some helpful tips from our expert pest control service technicians:
Launder all clothing and machine-washable fabrics in hot water to kill both the adult bed bugs and eggs.
