Bed bugs are very unpleasant, and because they are good at resisting most pesticides, they can also be very difficult to eliminate. Our team at Overwatch Pest Management can offer bed bug control, but first we will need to complete a bed bug inspection to ensure we take the right approach.
Here are a few reasons why bed bug inspections are important:
- Confirm Their Presence – You might suspect that you have bed bugs, but it might not be that easy to tell, especially since they are very good at hiding during the day. You can be fairly sure there are bed bugs if you have itchy, red bites or you see their eggs and excrement. If you aren’t sure, a bed bug inspection can let you know the facts.
- Identify the Situation’s Severity – Bed bug inspections aren’t just for identifying the presence of bed bugs; they are also for assessing the situation and discovering how serious it is. A professional has the knowledge and resources needed to find out how big the problem really is.
- Select the Proper Method – With a professional bed bug inspection, you can have confidence that your pest control professional is going to apply the appropriate treatment method, whether that is a heat treatment, chemicals, or something else.
- Thoroughly Check the Entire Space – Bed bug inspections will ensure more than just your bed is inspected. Bed bugs may have made their way to other areas of your home and could be hiding in couches or other furniture. A professional has the training needed to provide a thorough inspection.
