Bed bugs can destroy your feeling of safety and comfort at home, and completely getting rid of them can be a major struggle. There are a few things you should know about bed bug control methods that can help you begin addressing the problem before an exterminator arrives. When you give us a call at Overwatch Pest Management, we make it our mission to help you reclaim the home that you’ve worked so hard for, and we strive to provide the most effective bed bug control solutions.
In this post, we’ll cover some key facts about bed bug control that will help you understand a bit more about these pests and how our team will eradicate them from your home for good.
- They can live for months without eating. That’s why they can be so hard to eradicate — taking away their food source isn’t enough. Even six months after their last bit of blood, they’ll be creeping and crawling all over your furniture if you let them.
- Don’t try to get rid of them yourself. Due to the points mentioned above, there’s no way you can get rid of them without a professional to provide proper bed bug control measures.
- You’ll never know when they bite you. Their saliva dulls the sensation around the bite area, so you can easily sleep soundly when they drink as much as they like. Don’t try to catch them this way — you won’t be able to see them coming.
- Temperatures don’t scare them either. Bed bugs can weather a lot of harsh conditions, like temperatures of almost freezing to as much as 122 degrees.
