Bed Bug Extermination

Description

Bed bugs are the size and shape of an apple seed. Their bodies are wide and flat, with an oval abdomen and a small, but broad head. Wingless and brown, unfed adults are about 6-10mm long.

Detection and prevention

Bed bugs are currently a rampant problem. With people travelling more than ever, bed bugs are more easily carried by luggage and clothing to new locations. They are found in homeless shelters and in five-star hotels, in private homes and on public transport. Bed bugs travel from room to room by hitching a ride on infested articles. Signs of an infestation include blisters and bites on skin, and brown or black stains on mattresses, sheets, box springs or walls.
