I think I have bedbugs

So, you think you have bedbugs, how can you know for sure?
Here are a few pictures of what some typical infestations look like.
The sooner you’re able to recognize the signs of bedbug infestations, the better off you’ll be when it comes to eliminating them.


Where do bedbugs hide?
70% of most infestations start in the mattress and box spring, you’ll need to recognize what a harborage site looks like in a mattress and box spring. They can also be on/in the bed frame head board,night stands, pictures over the bed, electronics near the bed. That’s just to name a few.


The signs to look for
When you inspect your box spring and mattress, look for black/brown dots. These are fecal matter.
Also look for what looks like shed skins, bedbugs molt and shed their skin up to 5 times during their lifespan.


Other signs

Not everyone who has bedbugs, shows signs of bites. Some people have terrible reactions, some have little bites, some have no bites at all. So indications of bites only, is not a good way to determine whether or not you have bedbugs.
Pay attention when you’re changing the sheets. Note any spots of blood on the sheet or pillow cases, look for shed skins in/on the sheets.

I was just watching something on the discovery channel about bed bugs and how they are about impossible to get rid of. This one family had to have their house heated to like 180 degrees for 2 days to kill the little bastards.

But they come back. They ALWAYS come back.

Yeah tyler, that's what I do. I heat them to kill them. The guys that use 180* heat are using exhaust from propane burners, that's pretty dangerous.

I use electric heat, my heaters are capped at 140*.

NOT true, not it totally eliminated. IF they come back it's a different infestation. When I treat, I school the clients on what actions to take to prevent them in the future.

They only come back if they were treated with pesticides and they weren't completely eliminated.

Yea they were using the propane burners. I was thinking "damn, isnt that sort of dangerous?"

I figured that, it was just a funny quote, I couldn't pass it up.

Despite what some might say, this is noble work, Steve.

Ridding the world of little asshole bugs that bite us while we sleep is a very important service.
