Where Do Bed Bugs Come From?

Bed bugs can enter your home in countless ways. Bed bugs do not fly or jump, so they often crawl onto clothing, purses, or bags when they are placed on infested, upholstered surfaces. From there, they hitch a ride back to your home. Another way they can be brought into your home is by bringing home used furniture or clothing from secondhand stores.

Bed bug infestations most frequently occur inside:

• Someone else’s home

• Hotels and motels

• Libraries

• Airports

• Secondhand Stores

• Or other large, public spaces

Because bed bugs are such excellent crawlers, they can travel easily throughout multi-unit buildings such as hotels and apartment complexes.

Identifying Bed Bug Infestations in Your Home

Bed bugs are tiny little insects that can infest clothing, furniture, and linen. Unlike many other pests, signs of infestations are immediate and obvious. The first sign of bed bug infestation is usually the appearance of red, itchy bumps on the skin. The bumps are the result of the bed bugs’ bite. They mostly feed at night while victims are sleeping and can be elusive during the day.

Bed bugs also leave other tell-tale signs. These can include:

• Dark, rusty spots of feces
• Clutches of eggs or egg shells
• Shed bed bug skins
• Foul odors
• Small bloody spots on linens

It is important to note that bed bug infestations are not associated with unhygienic conditions. They are typically picked up from clothing or luggage at an infested location and then transported back. Bed bugs require blood to grow and reproduce so they can do so in any environment, no matter how clean.

Types of Treatment for Bed Bugs

Bed bugs have a reputation for being notoriously hard to eradicate, therefore, there are a couple of different approaches we can take to get rid of an infestation. The methods can be broken down into two categories: chemical and thermal.

What Is the Chemical Method?

The chemical method is more traditional and requires an application of pesticide. Pesticide must be applied to all areas where bed bugs may be hiding. All clothing and bedding must also be laundered since bed bugs can linger in linens and clothes. This method takes more preparation, like moving furniture, and may require several applications to completely eradicate the infestation.

What Is the Thermal Method?

The thermal method is a little less traditional but is quickly gaining popularity as the preferred method of bed bug treatment. Since bed bugs and their eggs cannot survive high temperatures, special heaters are placed in infested rooms. The rooms are then heated 140 degrees. As long as all bed bugs and eggs are exposed to the heat, the infestation will be eradicated.

The high temperature is usually sustained long enough to allow the heat to penetrate into any areas the bed bugs may be hiding. This method requires that homes be vacated for several hours so the heaters have time to work but usually only requires one treatment.
