Where do Bed Bugs Come From

Detecting a bed bug infestation can be difficult, as these pests like to hide in cracks and crevices. Bed bugs are nocturnal and about the size of an apple seed. They are reddish brown in colour except for any unfed bugs, which are paler. They spread from infested fabrics, such as second-hand furniture, and can even crawl between rooms. To reduce the risk, thoroughly clean any used furniture you introduce into your home and wash your clothes carefully after trips.

What are the signs of a bed bug infestation?

The common signs of a bed bug infestation include bites on exposed skin, small blood spots on bedding, sightings of live insects, and an unpleasant, sweet odour.

Where do bed bugs come from?

Bed bugs often originate from infested areas such as busy public places like hotels and libraries, or they can be introduced through second-hand furniture, upholstered items, and used clothing.

Infestations can frequently occur when a member of the household unknowingly carries bed bugs on their clothes after being in an infested area.

Can I treat a bed bug infestation myself?

We do not advise DIY bed bug control, as bed bugs are resilient and can be difficult to get rid of without professional insecticides and expertise. With Xpress, you can be sure of getting the best possible bed bug treatment.

How are bed bugs treated?

Bed bug treatment insecticides are used to eradicate bed bugs at all stages of their life-cycle, including the eggs.

Since bed bugs tend to be resilient pests, we recommend to fully get rid of them you hire a bed bug exterminator who has the right equipment and expertise to quickly take care of your pest problem

How long does it take to get rid of bed bugs?

The time it takes to fully eradicate bed bugs depends on the level of infestation, but can take up to 8 weeks to fully eradicate the problem. One treatment is usually sufficient but in cases of severe infestations, additional treatments may be recommended after the initial inspection.

How can I prevent bed bugs after treatment?

To prevent bed bugs from returning, it’s important to regularly clean your sheets, clothes, and furniture. Vacuum your home frequently, dispose of vacuum bags immediately, thoroughly clean any second-hand furniture, and wash your clothes after travelling to minimise the risk of re-infestation.

After treatment, your Xpress exterminator might recommend avoiding vacuuming for a short period to allow residual insecticides to continue working and to properly eliminate any remaining larvae and eggs. This helps break the life cycle of the infestation. For the best results it is essential that you follow the pre and post treatment guidance provided.
